It's not an Amiga game. It's a total conversion for Quake (but is compatible with Amiga Quake ports). It saw wide release as a PC product, so keep your eyes peeled on eBay or other used game shops.

But why is it in Amiga hall of light with AGA as minimum requirement?


Because after Quake was released for the Amiga by ClickBoom in 1998 a bunch of Amiga shops and magazines started taking a look at and stocking PC Quake add-ons because they're 100% compatible with the Amiga version.

AGA was listed as the minimum requirement for Amiga Quake, but it sure wouldn't have been pleasant. Even an 060 is barely adequate.

Yeah, it's essentially a mod like Capture the Flag and Team Fortress.  It just happens to be a commercial product rather than a freeware one.  It'll work in RTG mode, of course. It'll work in any screen resolution you can run Quake in. Most (all?) of the Amiga Quake ports over the years are RTG-friendly.  It just so happens that a 68k chip just isn't powerful enough to make Quake enjoyable, in my opinion.

If you end up getting it, you can always use it on your PC/Mac/Linux box (with Quake installed) if you find the Amiga too slow.
