for me it was definitely:

1:  Lemmings
2:  Sierra On-Line Adventures (eg Space Quest, Kings Quest, Leisure Suit Larry)

And though it was not an Amiga game:
The 7th Guest (Macintosh Version)

Have to look up Settlers :-)

Just caught this thread.. need more coffee...

The games that kept me awake and drooling are (in no particular order):

1. Lethal Weapon Came with my CDTV on floppy.  Never been able to put it down
2. Extreme Violence 2-players only, available on Aminet
3. Chaos Engine
4. Jaguar XJ220
5. Turrican
6. Chuck Rock 2: Son of Chuck
7. Volfied Sequel to Qix, hell of a great game!
8. Thunder Blade Port of Sega Coin-op.  Wicked once you get used to the controls
9. Narco Police FPS before the FPS craze
10. Alien Breed 3D + AB3DII: TKG I love 'em and I'm not ashamed to admit it!

And an honourable mention goes to Psycho Killer for the CDTV, if only for kitsch factor ("Eat my Reebox, freak face!")

A1200: 50mhz GVP Jaws II+, OS 3.1, 32mb Fast, 1gb HD, Indivision MKIICR, PCMCIA network
A4000D: stock 030/25, OS 3.9, 16mb Fast, 1gb HD, Picasso II, Ariadne II, IOExtender

I've never found an artillery game that comes close to this one.  The option to fire multiple weapons at once with different delivery styles is what sets this game apart from all the rest.

Any of the god/strategy type games: Die Siedlers, Foundation, Lemmings, etc. AND, also, Flashback. I played that one straight through and forgot to eat or sleep. :-D

I'd say the best for sure were:

-GODS
-Sindicate
-Shadow of the Beast

Yea...for sure!

Anyone ever hear or play TELENGARD on the old C-64?
That was addicting back...way back then...

Jajajaja

Why don't you just sell your Amiga to someone that will get more use of it.  Make a new Amiga user, we can always use more of them.  I am always interested in software, or you can save it to run on UAE if you have any interest anymore.  This is not meant as a flame or to provoke you, just a suggestion to stop wasting another Amiga sitting in someones closet.
How are you helping the Amiga community? :)

Hmm, its Deluxe Galaga for me as well (which also spawned the current PC version by the same guy - WarBlade), followed by Hybris, Turrican, Uridium in no particular order  :pint:

Try Frontal Assault !

Also, Death Tank on Sega Saturn (Came also with Duke Nukem / Quake in UK) was a hilarious multiplayer blast!

Pinball fantasies and slam tilt. Pinball dreams is also pretty good.
I have been addicted to plenty amiga games, but these 3 are the games i still find myself coming back to.
And these 3 pinball games are in my opinion the best ones i ever played on any kind of platform with the exception of the real thing.

Pinball games sadly seemed to get extinct after they went 3d... Some games just are most playable in 2d graphics.
