Comment on Great games you would recommend from before 1990?
Apeman42@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Bubble Bobble
Leisure Suit Larry 1-4
Secret of Monkey Island (released in 1990 actually, but close enough)
Barbarian (1987)
Batman (1989)
Space Quest and King’s Quest, at least some of each series but I don’t remember which ones.
Just a few I remember from my old Amiga.
To add to Bubble Bobble some C64 games: Tom Thumb Gianna Sisters (best) Rainbow Islands Katakis Armalite
Oh and the good old AD&D games: Hillsfar Pool of Radiance Curse of the Azure Bonds Pools of Darkness
Not sure if before 1990: Loom, Indiana Jones 3
Amiga 500: Silkworm (2 player coop, I thought it was a banger back in the days)
What was that one where you were a little cute yellow walking bird and you jumped on these primarily vertical fanciful maps, and you rode in little balloons and stuff you jumped in?
No idea, sorry - first time I hear this. I do recall a game that was a hex listing to type from a gaming magazine that had a yellow player sprite, could have been a bird. But we gave up hand-typing the listing into a hex editor half-way so I never got to play it :(
I literally came to say Bubble Bobble too!
I’ll add Adventures of Lolo, all of them.
Oh, also Dragon’s Lair and Space Ace. More interactive animated movies than anything, but well worth it for the classic Don Bluth animations.

Scrolled way too far for sierra games. They defined my childhood.
