I am sooo bored, what should I play?
« on: June 16, 2013, 11:23:11 PM »
I like 'SimCity' because you can plan and build a city. 'Civilization' because you are building an empire and you can be friends with other players. 'Batman' because I like putting down bad guys without using a gun. 'Railroad Tycoon' has been played to death. I know what I want to play, 'Rainbow Islands'...oh shut up, you know it is a fun game. :D
Either that or turn on the C64 and play some 'Giana Sisters'.

If you like SimCity and Civilization you should try Settlers. I used to play it on PC. It's about building your medieval realm and conquer/beat your opponenet. It's different levels if I remember correctly. You have to balance resources and needs. It is a lot of micro management.

You can always play Reunion. It's available for AGA as well. It is a strategy game but it does follow a story line so you are limited what you can do. I remember exploring planets and wrote down on a piece of paper what kind of resources you can find where. It helped a lot when deciding where to build colonies. I did play this on PC as well but I want to try it on Amiga.

@Florida

If you have an AGA Amiga with 32MB of RAM you can play Total Chaos AGA from Aminet.  You can build a base and defend it from the hordes of monsters, which u will of course kill and smash into a bloody mess :)

And u can email me any bugreports u find. :)
Wanna try a wonderfull strategy game with lots of handdrawn anims,
Magic Spells and Monsters, Incredible playability and lastability,
English speech, etc. Total Chaos AGA

If you like Simcity type games, you should consider K240 if you haven't already played it. :)

Good choice! You won't get dissapointed!

When/If you get bored of Settlers, try Lords of the Realm. It's also medieval but less micro management. I like this game for two things: you can design your own castles AND you can lay siege on castles with a lot of options :D

Edit: LotR is also available as AGA

And last but not least the game "castles" itself! Also not from bad parents!

Myth always took me back. Was a little tough trying to get down the stupid control scheme (really I have to use the space bar with a joystick!?!?!?), but if you stick with it, get through a couple levels, you'll be amazed at the level design and the art that went into this puppy!
Earth has a lot of things other folks might want... like the whole planet. And maybe these folks would like a few changes made, like more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and room for their way of life. - William S. Burroughs

Not an Amiga game (yet) but i've been playing Fez. I haven't had time to really play it properly yet but it's terribly addictive!

There's also Colonization :) Similar to Civlization, but it has it's own charm.
Also, I second the K240 proposal. Terrific game! Although prone to crashing.
Glory to the loud-mouthed Scotsman !

That is a great game! I used to play it (also on PC) until I got the "remake" a couple of years ago.
