Jackass: The Game on the PlayStation 2 is one of THE best video games ever made. Period. Not only is it THE ultimate multiplayer party game, but it also has an ingenious single-player element too. Ingenious because of the way it unlocks new things as you play. The reward system in this game is just brilliant.

Daze Before Christmas, Megadrive/Genesis
Sunsoft’s Christmas-themed platform game Daze Before Christmas first came out on the Sega Megadrive/Genesis in 1994.
Dark Side, Amstrad CPC
Dark Side is the second game in Incentive Software‘s famous “Freescape” series, and is arguably best represented – at least on 8-bit machines – on the Amstrad.
Pikmin 2, GameCube
Nintendo’s 2004 sequel is a brilliant update of the first Pikmin game, with split screen multiplayer, and challenging single-player story modes.
Frak!, BBC Micro
Orlando’s Frak! first came out on the BBC Micro in 1984 and instantly became a cult hit.
Amberstar, PC
Amberstar is a German-developed RPG that was originally released for the Atari ST, Amiga and PC MS-DOS in 1992. It is an incredibly difficult game to get a foothold in, but is worth the effort because it is such an interesting gaming challenge to take on.
Oids, Atari ST
Before they made the classic Dungeon Master, FTL (or Software Heaven as they are sometimes known) made the classic Oids – a challenging 16-bit gravity game shooter on the Atari ST.
Dark Star, ZX Spectrum
Dark Star, released in 1984 by Design Design, is a very underrated game, in my opinion.
Marble Madness, Arcade
Atari’s 1984 arcade hit was a very early proponent of isometric (meaning: “equal measure“) graphics, with a viewpoint that takes an overhead, three-quarter perspective of the gameplay area, and as a result was a huge influence on many games that followed it.
Bruce Lee II, PC
Bruce Lee II is an unofficial ‘homebrew’ sequel to Ron J. Fortier‘s classic Bruce Lee, released free by Bruno R. Marcos in 2013. And it is a marvellous game in its own right!
