    Well that is the thing Dave, I did try the game but not very long though and I did not get far.

    I guess I am more curious if it has any collection value (not that I think it would ever become worth a capital or something), something worth picking up.

    Hardly any Amiga games could be considered a collecting investment. People don't really collect Amiga games for that reason. Moonstone is about the only game you could consider collectable in that sense.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    That is true Dave. There aren't really so much games that have true collector's value.
    I probably did not 'worded' this as well as I had wanted to.

    I better follow your advice and play the game for a couple of hours and then try to make up my decision.

    I think the problem is that you are looking for games you never played, whereas most retro fans collect games they originally played when they first came out. For those of us it is the memories of playing them as a new release, with their innovation, that holds so much nostalgia.

    Got a point there as well, but it does make me a bit depressed because it would mean I should stop wasting money on purchasing games I think look nice for the time they were released but I otherwise have no connection with.
