jackdaniel Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) hi everybody As a kid (late 80s) I had an atari 1040 stf, and my first games were from a game pack with 4 or 5 games. One of these games was called elf. I was trying to look it up online, but the game called elf i found is not the same as the one i remember. The one i played was a platformer where the hero had some sort of bouncing balls for weapons, with a parabolic trajectory, as opposed to the straight trajectory of the elf i found online. The hero looked vaguely elvish (think link from zelda 2 with a bigger head and no sword). Also it was super hard (true most of the games were hard in this era and, well, it was my first game so don't judge ) The games were bought in France, which might explain why the name has been changed. I also remember that the pack contained "the man from the council" , and probably some sport or racing games I never played, never liked those. Can you help me out? edit: I found the pack here http://www.priceminister.com/offer/buy/426227676/atari-st-mega-pack-5-jeux-f1-grand-prix-elf-circus-game-summer-olympiad-et-man-from-the-council.html?filter=20 The box and the floppy disks are exactly how i remember them, but i still can't find the game. I have seen a youtube video of an amiga elf, but it looks nothing like the one i remember. Edited March 18, 2017 by jackdaniel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Payne Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) So, not this Elf, eh?http://www.atarimania.com/game-atari-st-el I'm pretty sure not now that I type this but it appears I can't delete this so we'll just consider this an confirmation message. :-) Edited March 18, 2017 by Justin Payne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayreon Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 ELF by MicroValue is different from the Ocean one. So maybe you find it here: http://www.atarimania.com/game-atari-st-mega-pack-ii_s19582.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
