Guess the Commodore game

Post by Scythe »

All right, I've decided to split the game guessing thread into three (so far) platforms, to encourage more traffic. I believe we have three distinct camps, this one being Commodore (VIC-20, C64/128, Amiga).

The rules of the game are simple: One user posts a screenshot, once somebody guesses what game it is from, and has that guess confirmed by the original poster, it becomes their turn to post a new screenshot. If somebody goes away for, say, a week, and doesn't respond to guesses, the first user to post a new screenie becomes the active poster.

If it's not Castlevania i'll eat my hat!!! But it is so here's the next one... just for Insanus :D

To give a bit of help let me offer some info...

It was made by Infogrames and has been described as "one of the rarest PC game of all time" - it came out more widely on Spectrum, Commodore 64, Atari ST, Amstrad CPC and Amiga too.

This snapshot is form the Amiga version. I OWNED this game for the Spectrum so it can't be that obscure.

Based on a comic by Belgian artist Paul Deliege? Never heard of it, neither game nor comic. ;)

Thanks Parvini, at first I didn't see the 'Collection Spirou' on your screenshot, then it was so clear...

Unfortunately I don't know many Commodore Games, so I'll post a classic one:

Well, only a few Commodore experts around here?
You're right of course.

Is there anyone to take the quiz ?

...or you could take this opportunity to get an emulator for a Commodore machine and revisit some old games. :)
