Karamalz Cup
Title Screen
Art Department 1993
Genre: Sport, Action
Rating: 2/6
Language: Deutsch
Licence: Freeware
System: Amiga
Karamalz is a brand of Malzbier, so what we have here is a promotial game. Promotial games are mostly simple versions of classic arcade games or short Adventures. This one sticks out from the crowd by being a sports game. It's a surprisingly complex ice hockey simulation!

Karate Champ
Title Screen
Data East 1985
Genre: Sport, Action
Rating: 3/6
Language: English
Licence: Commercial
System: C64
One of the biggest hits in the arcades of the mid-80s, converted to the C64. Most people will know the gameplay from International Karate these days (if at all), but Karate Champ was the game which started it all!

KGB
Alternate Names: "Conspiracy"
Title Screen
Virgin Interactive 1992
Genre: Adventure
Rating: 3/6

System: PC
It's the last days of the Soviet Union. Gorbachev has destroyed part of the old structures. But as always when there's change, there are groups who want to take advantage of it. For some, it doesn't go quickly enough, some want to go back as much as possible. And some of those aren't all that peaceful about it...

King of Chicago
Title Screen
Cinemaware 1986
Genre: Adventure, Action
Rating: 2/6
Language: English
Licence: Commercial
System: Amiga
The early and mid-90s - the wake of the CD-Rom as a games medium. Because the games themselves didn't need this space yet, tons of 'interactive movies' filled the shelves of the stores. Those were rarely more than a collection of movie clips and the players' only activity was to make a few (often pretty futile) decisions between the scenes. Many see 7th Guest as the beginning of this development.

King's Quest 1: Quest for the Crown (Remake)
Title Screen
Sierra 1990
Genre: Adventure
Rating: 2.5/6
Language: English
Licence: Commercial
System: Amiga
You are Sir Graham, noble knight in some medieval kingdom at the court of the old King Whatever. The king apparantely has some magical powers, because he can control when he wants to die! And he has decided to walk over the Styx once he has finally gotten his collection of stereotype king-stuff (magical mirrors, unlimited treasure chests and such) complete. Lil' King is too busy sitting on his throne gazing at the walls to find the last three missing pieces himself, so he gives the job to one of the guys who always hang around in the castle grinning and saying 'yes, my lord': Sir Graham. In return, Graham is promised to inherit the crown.

Klass of '99
Title Screen
Richard Jordan 1999
Genre: Action, Adventure
Rating: 5/6
Language: English
Licence: Freeware
System: PC
Remaking a classic game is always a controversial, but also popular venture. There's always the question of the point, because why do a straight remake when there's the original (running on every imaginable device thanks to emulation). On the other hand, if a supposed remake strays too far from the source, the old fans complain as well. A difficult balancing act.

Knight Games
Title Screen
English Software 1986
Genre: Sport, Action
Rating: 3/6
Language: English
Licence: Commercial
System: C64
The Middle Ages: was it an age of chivalry and knights in shining armors? Or a dark age of oppression and plague? We'll maybe never know for sure. One thing is for sure though: people liked brawling back then - just like today! And that makes all the other questions completely useless and uninteresting!


Kult
Alternate Names: "Chamber of the Sci-Mutant Priestess"
Title Screen
Exxodus 1989
Genre: Adventure
Rating: 4/6
Language: Francais, English, Deutsch
Licence: Commercial
System: Amiga
In the far future. After a nuclear war, part of the human race has mutated and now form two new races: the Tuners who look human, but have PSI powers (reading other people's thoughts, telekinetic powers,...), and the Protozorqs, humans with lizardlike heads. The latter live in huge temples which inspire fear into passers-by. There are rumors about humans and Tuners disappearing into these without leaving a trace.

Labyrinth
Title Screen
Lucasfilm Games / Activision 1986
Genre: Adventure
Rating: 3/6
Language: English
Licence: Commercial
System: C64
There were Adventure games before SCUMM and aside from Sierra's endless Quests. Lucasfilm's first own foray into the genre was Labyrinth - an official offshoot of the movie of the same name (starring David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly).

Last Action Hero
Title Screen
Psygnosis 1994
Genre: Action
Rating: 0/6
Language: English
Licence: Commercial
System: PC
A whole bunch of unvoluntary humor! This game confirm several cliches at once.

1. A movie conversion
The game has nothing (really nothing) to do with the film. Some very short video excerpts are shown betweenthe levels but that's all. A few characters and settings from the film show up but they are futile.
