Amagon is a Nintendo Entertainment System platform side-scroller developed by Aicom in 1988. It was subject to a high level of criticism, and never reached a high level of recognition among game critics.
The Amiga Port of "Space Harrier".
Space Harrier on the Amiga is a port of Sega's classic rail shooter. Players control a jetpack-equipped protagonist who flies through surreal, colorful landscapes, battling bizarre enemies and large bosses. The game features fast-paced action as the hero weaves through obstacles and projectiles while firing at incoming threats. While adapting the arcade original to home computer hardware, this version aims to recreate the high-speed, fantastical experience of the original within the Amiga's capabilities.
The NES port of Xenophobe, a 1987 arcade game. The goal of each level is to defeat all the aliens before time runs out. Levels may contain more than one floor, and players use elevators or holes to move between floors to defeat all of the aliens. Players can also pick up more powerful weapons and other items to help in their eradication of the aliens.
The NES port of Platoon. The film Platoon featured a squad of five soldiers on their mission for the US Army in Vietnam. In this action game based around the film, you take control of these five guys in turn, with the chance to switch between them as they each take one of the 3 hits that would kill them.
The game recreates each of the sections of the film, starting with a side-scrolling journey through the jungle, with paths to cross both horizontally and vertically, and the ability to jump or duck hazards. You will need to blow up a bridge and then locate a village, which contains a torch, a map and a trap-door. The enemy has booby-trapped the area and are launching airstrikes, so the danger is not all from enemy ground soldiers.

It is thought that Zaum Gadget was a subliminal event-structure capable of subtly manipulating the beliefs of any participant.
Inspired by Russian futurism, Zaum is a unique digital experience.
Described by its developers as a "New Type Role-Playing Game", Zavas differs from the Japanese-made RPGs by resembling a Western-style RPG, in particular the Ultima games of its time. Retaining the characteristically Japanese manga/anime aesthetics in graphics, Zavas has little resemblance to Japanese RPGs in other aspects. It is not story- and character-driven; the player controls a knight named Mardy in the medieval fantasy land of Fargana (with slight Middle Eastern influences), and is free to go anywhere, exploring the world without following a set storyline. The top-down world consists of vast wilderness areas and towns.
Similarity to Western RPGs is evident in detailed management of player-controlled party (NPCs with names and portraits, but little personality can be found and recruited). beside the usual weapon, armor, and item management, the player must also buy food to keep his characters alive. Some of the interaction with NPCs offers choices (for example, paying money or attacking a guard who demands t
Tetris is an arcade game published by Sega in 1988. It took Japanese arcades by storm, and is one of the most commonly known versions of the game. Due to its popularity, it became the base of rules for many other Japanese games created later on, both licensed and unlicensed. Such games include the TGM series, Tetris Plus series, Tetris S and Shimizu Tetris. It was one of the first games to have lock delay, greatly improving maneuverability at high speeds.
