The best Amiga platform games

[Harrison]

Was Another World strictly a platform game? It had many platform elements, but it was more an adventure in my view. Although I suppose you could say the same about Flashback. A case of games starting to cross genres.

Yeah I think it does, I had something similar with Fire Force which is also difficult to classify.

I really love the platform game genre, I think it's my favourite out of all of them. I still can't decide which game is my favourite so I'll list a bunch of them.

Ruff 'n Tumble
Zool 1 & 2
Bubble 'n Squeak
Mr Nutz: Hoppin' Mad
Brian the Lion
The Chaos Engine
Lionheart
Leander
Whizz
Superfrog
Bubba 'n Stix
Wolfchild
Fire & Ice
James Pond: Robocod

There's so many more, but those are the ones that jump to mind first.

Here's some of my favourites:

- Parasol Stars

Excellent two-player mode makes this a winner, but it's of course fun in one-player mode as well.

- Superfrog

One of the best platform games I've ever played. Nice detailed graphics, cool music, and fine gameplay. Also enjoyed the arcade minigame.

- Rodland

Like Parasol Stars, this game has a brilliant two-player mode.

- James Pond

Great game.

- Giana Sisters

Classic. Are we going to have a competition in this game soon?

- Damage

Brutal game from Finland. Keywords; Narcotics and baseball bat.
