The best brain game for Atari 8 Bits

[Zybex]

 

My preferred are Lasermania, Thinker and Shit.

[Dracon]

AXILOX is very good (with outstanding color graphix!),

MENTAL AGE is decent

LOADED BRAIN is cool, especialy funny gags (anims) inside game.

 

 

They all are my favourite brain-squezzers (except 'classical' chess and so on).

My personal pick is Deflektor.

Well, I'd dare to say that "LINE UP" is much more arcade than "brain" game... Especially on higher levels speed and dexterity are the most important...

I finished it, by the way, but only when cheating a little...

I like ZebuLand

Zybex, nice to see there are quite many Polish game among your favourite ones!

Where can I get "SOGON" ???

 

 

To not being forgotten:

CULTIVATION and LORIEN's TOMB are both similar and quite good logic games.

And there is another 'brain' game that has wonderful... music ! It's RUCU from MIRAGE software...

Hi Dracon,

 

Sogon is a Sokoban-clone done by KE-Soft. There are some more of these for the ATARI. They´re all good, but not very special, if you have one, the others give no news, as all levels are the same.

[pps]

btw Zebu-Land & Atomics are also worth a view.

[Zybex]

I really like polish games. Excelent music, good graphics, and creative objectives.

 

Lasermania (my preferred) is very original and hard .

 

And... Dracon i attach the game you requested.

glad to read it.

 

 Lasermania (my preferred) is very original and hard   .

there is also its unofficial version with added cheat option (changing levels with "K" keys).

 

 And... Dracon i attach the game you requested.

thanx.... It's not bad, but have you seen MASTER HEAD (with beautiful music by Tomasz Liebich and cool gfx by Michal Widera) ???

SISIPHOS also remids them both...

Chess Master 2000.

Check out Colossus Chess 4.1, is nice, and is the strongest chess software for Atari.

I made a question related to in usenet and I got this:

 

http://groups.google.cl/groups?hl=es&lr=&t...h.se%26rnum%3D2

 

one of the interesting answers was:

 

Hmm,

also quite good (in my eyes) are the chess programs:

- Colossus 3.0 (higher ELO rate than 4.0, but no 3D!)

- Chess 7.0 by Odesta

- Chessmaster 2000

 

And if you are a collector of chess programs also look for;

- My-Chess (Datamost)

- Sargon Chess (Hayden-Software)

- Sargon-Chess 2 (Hayden Software)

- Sargon Chess 3 (Hayden Software)

- Parker Chess (by Parker of course)

- Chess by Atari

- Querg-Chess and Querg-Negation (PD by ???)

- Basic-Chess (PD from Compute mag.!)

- Killer-Chess (from Antic or Analog)

- probably a few more programs...

 

greetings, Andreas.

 

It'd be interesting a final ELO between these different games

Use semi-strong PC chess software (like Arasan, with 2100 ELO).

With the swiss-perfect software, make a "round-robin" tournament (double round), between arasan (with 2100 of estimated elo), and Colossus 3.0 , Colussus 4.1 and Chessmaster.

Use an emulator at high speed to avoid long time think of the atari software.
