Magic Carpet? That game with the gongs? Where you had to fly through those virtual tunnels?
I'd always heard how it was supposed to be such a classic and stuff, but I found it very boring after I finally got it to run.

Mmmh, oh, yes, Impossible Mission! Anybody ever managed to play THAT one through?
Fractalus and Sentinels I never got the hang of (Virus neither), but IM rocked. I just wasn't good enough.

By the way - there are transcribed user manuals available on the net for a lot of the old C64 games. Some guys apparently founded a C64 document conservation society and took it upon themselves to type in all those game manuals.
You can find instructions for just about any old game! That's how I finally found out what those alarm indicators in Paradroid mean.
I'm still trying to reach ship number 4...

Dungeon Master? Oh, not good enough for Mr. Fawlty, is it?
A year ago or so I finally played it, and, boy, did I have a good time. I was busy drawing maps like a madman. My flatmates used to mock me about the "Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!" sound effects from my room, caused by looking for fake walls and hidden rooms...

Say, Artinum - you got a working version of Star Control available?
