courtesi Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Looking for hints on really good Apple games that either are A) Unique or B) Are oddly better versions even compared to Amiga/Atari St computers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockin' Kat Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 It may fall under the title of sports game - which I usually hate - but, Zany Golf is my favorite IIgs game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Ragan Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Well, there's Seven Cities of Gold. It hasn't aged gracefully, but you're not likely to find anything else like it. It's an action/strategy game with historical significance... you load up on supplies while in Europe, sail your ships to the New World, and enter native settlements to either trade goods with the people who live there or slaughter them indiscriminately (just like the REAL European settlers!).

kondre Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Best Apple // games? Wings of Fury - Best game ever on the apple // Captain Goodnight - Very comical but linear, but comical Resue Raiders - very rare to find, stratigic Choplifter - runs perfect looks just like the A5200 version, or does Atai's look like apples's? Karateka - the version that every other system wished they had. Spy vs Spy - honerable mention Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+FujiSkunk Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I've read the AppleIIGS received a particulary good port of Arkanoid II. As for Apple II games, just about anything released by Broderbund in the early and mid '80s is worth playing, including gems like Karateka, Choplifter, David's Midnight Magic, and Lode Runner. AtariSoft also made a number of good ports for the Apple II, with Moon Patrol and the officially unreleased Mario Brothers standing out. Apple II California Games, while not the best version, must get an honorable mention because it has some of the best music an Apple II without extra hardware can generate.

Jeff Lodoen Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 IIGS... slim pickings, but here are some favorites of mine... unique to the GS (I think) Alien Mind Task Force Xenocide Dream Zone Keef the Thief ports, but the GS had better sound... Tunnels of Armageddon Bard's Tale I & II Dragon Wars Neuromancer World Games Block Out Crystal Quest Rastan Dark Castle Dungeon Master Immortal Roadwar 2000 Sierra titles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
