Paradroid II
Title Screen
Marc S. Seter 1993
Genre: Action
Rating: 5/6
Language: English
Licence: Freeware
System: Amiga
Although the C64 classic had been remade on the Amiga by Graftgold themselves as Paradroid 90, this version had its rough edges. Paradroid II, a freeware remake of the original, came out a few years later. Hard to believe in these days of lawsuits, trademark, patent and 'intellectual property' trolling: The programmer got through with not only using the original name, but also with producing pretty much a carbon copy of the graphics and much of the gameplay.

Parashooter
Title Screen
Peter Leahy 1998
Genre: Action
Rating: 3.5/6
Language: English
Licence: Commercial
System: PC
Parashooter - one of the two games I never managed to make a screenshot of! Highly promising slogan, eh? Well, it does show some technical sophistication on the programmer's side at least. Or it could be my inability to use Windows where this game runs in...

PCKaiser++
Title Screen
Martin Gelter 1992
Genre: Strategy
Rating: 4/6
Language: Deutsch
Licence: Shareware
System: PC
Sometimes, one small idea is enough to make a good game. Kaiser is a great C64 classic many people know. There are also lots of remakes. Only few of those tried to expand the gameplay, though.

Phobia
Title Screen
Ratt 1989
Genre: Action
Rating: 4.5/6
Language: English
Licence: Commercial
System: Amiga
The genre of horizontal shooters had early been set with standards nobody dared to break anymore. Instead, the race for perfection was on - mainly in the arcades, but also on the computers and consoles of the time.

Pinball Dreams
Title Screen
21st Century Entertainment 1992
Genre: Action, Sport
Rating: 3/6
Language: English
Licence: Commercial
System: Amiga
Everybody knows pinball. Everybody knows pinball games. Everybody knows this game, because it is the one which started the whole craze about the genre. Many even think it was the first pinball game on computers ever. That is of course completely untrue. There have been many pinball games before, many popular ones on the C64 and some even on the Amiga. None pushed the genre into the centre of attention like this one did, though.

Pinball Fantasies
Title Screen
21st Century Entertainment 1992
Genre: Action, Sport
Rating: 4/6
Language: English
Licence: Commercial
System: Amiga
Released the same year as its predecessor, Pinball Fantasies again provides you with four new tables for you to enjoy.

Partyland
The name says it all: you're entering the plastic world of a theme park. Very well placed targets and ramps, clear and clever interaction between them. Two ramps are only accessable via the third paddle on the upper half of the table. Partyland is pure fun - just what such a park should be!

Pirates!
Title Screen
Microprose 1990
Genre: Strategy, Action
Rating: 6/6
Language: English
Licence: Commercial
System: Amiga
Arr, Jim-boy! After three years, the vicious pirates have finally found their way to the prosperous shores of the Amiga. But instead of the ageing, sea-worn face of the original, we get a completely new and streamlined version - all the wealth which has been amassed in the meantime shows!

Pirates! Gold (CD32)
Title Screen
Microprose 1994
Genre: Strategy, Action
Rating: 6/6
Language: English
Licence: Commercial
System: Amiga
First of all, all comparisons are referring to the original Pirates! and the PC version of Pirates! Gold. Read the first review for a detailed covering of the gameplay itself. It is almost identical in this version.

Plan 9 from Outer Space
Title Screen
Gremlin 1992
Genre: Adventure
Rating: 3/6
Language: English, Deutsch, Francais
Licence: Commercial
System: Amiga
It is generally accepted as the 'worst movie ever'. It has everything what makes a film funny: acting of the worst kind, a story which seems to have been written within ten minutes, extremely cheap sceneries (gravestones made of paper which the actors stumble over...) and ridiculous post-production. And best of all: it is not meant to be funny as in all these boring modern films, but completely involuntarily humor!

Police Quest: In Pursuit of the Death Angel
Title Screen
Sierra 1987
Genre: Adventure
Rating: 2.5/6
Language: English
Licence: Commercial
System: Amiga
The shortest running of the common Sierra Adventures. Does that say anything about its quality? Come on, we're talking about Sierra! As if these sillyheads had ever cared about consumer wishes or producing quality products!
