This innovative 1983 ZX Spectrum game was one of the very first to use isometric 3D graphics.

Knight Lore, ZX Spectrum
Knight Lore by Ultimate Play The Game, first released for the ZX Spectrum in 1984, changed the way games were viewed, and played at the time.
Frontier: Elite II, PC
David Braben‘s long-awaited 1993 follow-up to the classic space trading game Elite unfortunately doesn’t involve Ian Bell.
Dragontorc, ZX Spectrum
Steve Turner‘s 1985 sequel to Avalon is about as atmospheric and exciting as a fantasy adventure can get on a ZX Spectrum. It really is amazing that this game fits in to only 48K of memory.
Alien 8, Amstrad CPC
The famous Ultimate ZX Spectrum game, converted skilfully to the Amstrad CPC and eclipsing the original in the process. More colour – less slowdown! 🙂
Virus, Amiga
David Braben‘s Virus was originally developed and released as “Zarch“ on the Acorn Archimedes in 1987, then later converted to other home computers under its more well-known title, Virus, in 1988.
Cybermorph, Atari Jaguar
Cybermorph: one of the first reasonably impressive releases on the much maligned Atari Jaguar. That said: it’s a very simple ‘fetch’ game with light shoot ’em up elements, and – apart from some impressively coloured graphics – there really isn’t much to it.
Worms, PlayStation
The 1995 PlayStation version of Andy Davidson‘s classic Worms is undoubtedly the best version of the game ever made. Ocean and Team 17 collaborated on this release.
It is an incredible multiplayer game, for up to four people.
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.
Dark Star, ZX Spectrum
Dark Star, released in 1984 by Design Design, is a very underrated game, in my opinion.
