Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

"Swedish-Developed"? It's an American game I believe, no other country could come up with a company name like "R/Greenberg Associates Interactive". Actually (looking at their site) that appears to be a former advertising agency/special effects company that now does websites, obviously this game was an earlier attempt to switch businesses.

Since no-one seems to know this I might give it to Duke, who was close.

Tell us what it was then, and I'll be the judge of whether I really was close enough to it. Unless you don't want to do another one, in which case I'll happily rack my brains for yet another Amiga classic.

"Gearheads", puzzle/action game from 1996 with a great demo and good 2-player fun. Like Archon, but less so.

I'll do a really really easy one next if you don't think you're good enough.

Crap, I was going to wild guess that title after seeing you tell Duke he was close with clock heads.

Maybe if you and Buck join forces we can get a 'goldilocks' game that isn't either obscure or ludicrously easy.

Hey!
I only wanted to have the game guessed before I went home. It was supposed to be that easy, and I don't want to get a reputation for choosing easy games - especially after the hoohah it took to guess Legend, let alone any of the other proper games.

I don't have one in mind, no. But well-known games are easy to pick by virtue of me knowing what they are.

I was in Tanzania when I played the demo of Gearheads and bought Ignition, both because I had read about them in British PC ZONE magazine.

Clue #2: Not only is it not by the same team as the original, but it doesn't feature the same gameplay, the same graphics, nor the same powerups and gameplay feel. A true sequel appeared later.
