Next clue


To give away another meme
I'll say it's got a spacey theme
The goal is to take control of any bot
And in the process not get shot

Body blows (Galactic was the spacey version)? not sure about it having a C64 vrsion though?

I was going to guess that, and didn't for that exact reason. The version I played was well after the C64 days.

Well i know people still program/convert stuff for the C64, so maybe?

I'm thinking of a game that had robot ninja's...but cant remember what it was called, so i made my number2 guess

Nope, still not it. It's a mid 80's game people, not 90's

They still do CoT, although C64 heavy coding is becoming a lost art (e.a assembler). I would love to hear about the robot ninja's however

Yes, that it is


In paradroid you were a bot that had to take control of a ship that was filled with killer robots, some harmless like messenger bots but also combat bots. Every bottype had a specific number. The higher the number on a bot the more powerful it (generally) was.
What set paradroid apart was that you also had the ability to "influence" (control) other robots by bumping into them and take over their minds.

There's an excellent remake at

It was a cult classic of a sort - i think it was by the same guy who later did 'Uridium' to great acclaim. It was definately a thinking mans shoot up

I'll post one tomorrow, so that should give everyone time to shift into atari8bit mode

Clue1:

by this time games of this genre had started to move into full 3D, but this was a kind of pseudo 3D - and very beutifully done non the less.

'the master of dungeon gone, all beheld the dragon eye'

No not those.

I should just add that anything i write in itallics for this guess should be read very losely. Pretend your under the influence of strong drink.........and squinting at them

Clue2:

One of the first things you see in this game is:

'legs of three in circle bound, all gems and gold surround' +distinctive sound effect.

Ah no that was a mistake

I'd meant to reply to Spaced Cowboys correct guess, but got sidetracked with your remark on eating spikes hat comment and hit the wrong 'reply with quote'.

But your guess is pretty good too - considering!

It was Ishar - Legend of the Fortress http://www.mobygames.com/game/ishar...of-the-fortress

And the first screenshot you see there is what my Clue2 was getting at. I liked their logo

A rather fine and good looking party based rpg on the Amiga(and others). I liked the first and second games, but was getting a little underwhelmed by the others when they came out.
