Tired of ads?

Yup!

By Vertical I just meant that the screen was orientated with a portrait rather than landscape aspect ratio on the arcade machine. Sorry for the confusion.

So was Commando for the C64 good? I always was under the impression it was but then I looked on the net and apparently some consider it a poor conversion. I've certainly never heard of anyone raving about it on any other platform...

The C64 version was good enough for me and indeed, the music was excellent. The music for the arcade machine lost some if its lustre once you hear it on the C64.

Hooray! I've won another cup That means another rhyme is up.

Mid 80's game 8-bit, C64 and Amstrad at least .


While there isn't any violence in this game
It was the surroundings that made its fame...
For it the gaming public it was a bit of a bore
Because the main goal was to explore...

there a lot of hills and narrow bridges to climb...

I have no idea from the clues so far, but have a sneaky feeling that I will know this one, and will be annoyed when someone else gets it and posts a link or pictures.

Nope, I hear answers but not the right ones. We seem to be 'moving' towards some conclusion however. Try to solve the riddle and find a few more clues if you can.

Something like Boulderdash?
Would guessing Treasure Trap be rash?
No ones replied to the thread in some time,
So could we please have another rhyme.
