Impossible Mission, BBC Micro
US Gold and Epyx converted the classic Impossible Mission to the BBC Micro in 1986 and it was a reasonable success.
Chuckie Egg, BBC Micro
Once again the BBC Micro version goes for a chunkier screen mode than try to emulate the ZX Spectrum original with less colours.
Thrust, BBC Micro
The late Jeremy Smith‘s classic gravity game, Thrust, came out first on the BBC Micro in 1986, before being converted to every other platform on the planet.
The Sentinel, BBC Micro
Another timeless classic video game that originated on the BBC Micro in 1986.
Geoff Crammond‘s The Sentinel is a strategic game of ‘hide and seek’ – played-out on a chequerboard-like surface over which a being called The Sentinel watches.
Atic Atac, BBC Micro
The BBC Micro conversion of Ultimate‘s famous Atic Atac is a little on the chunky side graphically, but it plays pretty well.
Elite, BBC Micro
The classic Elite originated on the BBC Micro. David Braben and Ian Bell‘s classic space combat/trading game was first released by Acornsoft in 1984.
BBC Micro Special
The BBC Micro was a British invention – a range of 8-bit home computers, backed and branded by the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation), and mostly pushed into schools.
Zombie Zombie, ZX Spectrum
Zombie Zombie is the spiritual successor to Ant Attack, in that: it was created by Sandy White, the guy who made Ant Attack, and it also uses the same kind of isometric graphics style and the same boy/girl sprites.
Aleste, MSX
I’m not a hundred percent sure if the MSX2 version of Aleste was released before the Sega Master System version or not. There are conflicting reports.
What is almost certainly true, though, is that they were both developed side-by-side in 1987 and released in Japan in 1988.
