Video gaming systems.
I remember playing and reviewing this PC MS-DOS game when it first came out in 1994.
Al-Qadim: The Genie’s Curse is a more ‘action-oriented’ TSR role-playing game, compared to many of the other ‘Gold Box’ TSR RPGs of the time (and there were lots – courtesy of SSI and US Gold). ‘RPG Lite’ you could call it.
Novagen released the Atari ST version of Encounter in 1991.
The Amiga version of Encounter was first released in 1991 (a full seven years after the original release) by Novagen Software.
Paul Woakes‘ classic first-person ‘tank’ shooter Encounter was released simultaneously on the Atari 800 and C64 in 1983.
Paul Woakes‘ classic first-person shooter on the Commodore 64, Encounter, wowed gamers back in 1983 when it was first released.
3D Monster Maze was developed by Malcolm Evans for J.K. Greye Software in 1982.
This classic black and white maze game was one of the first ever video games to use a first-person viewpoint inside a 3D maze.
Rendering Ranger: R2 is a rare run-and-gun game from the end of the life of the Super Nintendo. It was published by Virgin Interactive in Japan only in 1995. Which is strange for a German game…

Again written by Andrew Spencer for Commodore, International Basketball looks very similar to its predecessor but is leagues better, in terms of gameplay.
Andrew Spencer‘s International Soccer is a very early football game for the Commodore 64. And by “very early” I mean: 1983.
It stood out from other football games on the market at the time because it had a modicum of playability. You could at least take possession of the ball and have shots on target. You could at least kick the ball in the right direction…
