Bobby Bearing, ZX Spectrum
Bobby Bearing is an interesting isometric action game on the ZX Spectrum, published by The Edge in 1986.
You play as Bobby – a ball bearing – and must roll around the large, colourful maze, looking for and rescuing his four lost brothers and one cousin.
Bubsy, Atari Jaguar
Bubsy (in Fractured Furry Tales, to give the game its full title) is another okay-to-middling platform game that stands out like a sore thumb on the Atari Jaguar.
Bomberman ’94, PC Engine
Bomberman ’94 says “copyright 1993” on the title screen, and it came out in December 1993 in Japan, so just made it out before the turn of the year. And it’s a classic in the Bomberman series.
Booga-Boo, MSX
The MSX conversion of the classic Bugaboo (The Flea) has a slightly different title to the original, but the same great gameplay.
Bomb Jack, Arcade
A classic platform game from 1984, Tehkan‘s Bomb Jack is a colourful collect ’em up, with bombs that must be collected in the right order, to get the full bonus.
Booty, ZX Spectrum
Booty was a very early budget release from Firebird Software (the video game division of British Telecom) and was important in a number of ways.
Serious Sam: The Second Encounter, PC
This 2002 sequel to Serious Sam is very similar to the first game. The first level even has the same monsters, but does blast through them quickly to get to the new stuff. And there is quite a bit of new stuff. Weapons, environments, enemies, bosses, et cetera.
Serious Sam: The First Encounter, PC
As ‘generic’ first-person shooters go, Serious Sam is up there with the best of them.
And – let’s face it – the market is flooded with generic first-person shooters…
Antics, ZX Spectrum
This 1983 sequel to Bug-Byte‘s The Birds and the Bees is a simplistic maze game, but with excellent controls as you control a bee (with plenty of inertia), on the lookout for a kidnapped friend (kidnapped by ants, no less).
