+therealbountybob Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 We'll give my picks another run through then have a fresh set of games, please update the games list thread guys, I think we need to pep it up a bit Fandal has the games ataraimania has the info Poll closes after the current round Hi-Jack (E.S.C.) PAL Only A lesser known, really good rescue game, the superb giant trees make you jump (and crash!). Whistler's Brother One of my favourite games ever. Aquatron & Repton Great scrolling shooter, nearly as good as defender and dropzone, really. Repton may be worth a HSC debut? Tomb Based Extended Theme Round some ideas: Ramp Rage (v1.2) & River Rat That trbb is always sneaking his own games into the HSC... danm right I am! River Rat is a fun game, Ramp Rage is loosely River Rat on Steroids Kik-Start Crazy bike breaking fun! AE & Threshold Both played not too long ago but both decent shooters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlsson Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 (edited) Well, currently it looks we're going down those tombs for the next few weeks entirety of September. It remains to see how many and which tombs. Edited August 27, 2020 by carlsson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McKong Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 King Tut's looks familiar, maybe we played that a few years ago. I think it was good if I remember correctly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 King Tut's Tomb has been mentioned a few times, but I can't see that it was played. All three of Lost Tomb, Pharaoh's Curse and Tutankham were part of a bonus round in season 7 (Time for Desert), i.e. July 2010 so that would be a little over 10 years ago those three were played in the HSC. Pharaoh's Tomb doesn't seem to have been mentioned before, perhaps less known being a BASIC game but if we go by Atarimania ratings it would be the highest rated of these five. Previously I wrote that perhaps three games are enough but if we really intend to have round 17 last for up to 4 weeks, all five games may be required for some variation. I do think though that Puzznic and Q*Bert games don't belong in the theme, even if they have graphics and names that make them sound like tomb games.
