Well Insanus - i'm no Amiga expert, but I'm pretty sure this is "Mission Elevator"...

Am I right?

However, because that was not really a turn, I have to wait for eMTe to either post a pic or make a decision... I have a great one up my sleeve :)

It was way too easy, wasn't it?

Congrats to Parvini!

It's not my turn... but I'm so glad most of the buddies from OG are here (I'm Leynos there btw) that I want to give you some challenge... I guess no one get a clue on this one. It's Japanese (On ROM is traslated)

I guess it IS my turn (technically its eMTe's but I did get the last one right)... I'll give you guys another one to ponder as well as the one above.

This game is from the Amiga version of this game but it was probably more famous in its Spectrum and C64 incarnations. I've edited it slightly with paint because the name of the game was originally on the top left corner of the screen.

It is not a classic in anyone's book, quite unplayable by today's standards and buggier than a golf caddy's driveway... have fun :D

EDIT: Looking at it again, I'm pretty sure yours is the old He-man game icarus, am I right?

you're wrong parvini... nothing to do with He-man... a clue: console: NES

Whohaa, there are still Amiga games which I don't know!

I don't know about the NES game and I don't know the Amigagame but the latter looks very interesting!

Well icarus - the bones everywhere are pointing me towards Conan: The Mystery of Time reputedly one of the worst games of all time and a game I haven't played.

If it's not that I'm well and truly stumped.

@Insanus - I actually owned this game for the ZXSpectrum and could never play it due to a tape error! I never knew it was out for Amiga until now.

Is it one of the Castlevania Games Icarus??

If not... Defender of the Crown?

Castlevania Games could be but it's definitely not Defender of the Crown. Unfortunately I'm not very familiar with console games...

Btw, maybe a small hint for your Amiga screenshot? Did some research but couldn't find the screenshot... ;) :D

Ok Insanus...

as a clus this game sort of has 2 names... one the name of the lead character and the other the actual name of it...

It is also based around a prison.

I don´t think so, Parvini. I don't know if it came english version. I own the rom with traslation. But the game name remains japanese. Anyone ever played Konami Adventure?
