Reading one of the threads led me to start this one...anybody remember these games?
I loved these at the same time I found Dizzy.
If I remember right, very frustrating but most enjoyable!!!!
In fact, I don't believe I even completed one????
Stormbringer/Spellbound/Knight Time

I wanna play it now!!!
Its always the cracked ones that let the light in
I would love to play em all again and see whether my school of knowlege I have gained as an adult would help me complete them now!!!!
The reason I stumbled across Yolkfolk.com was cos I was searching for Spellbound from the Magic Knight series on the net....what a result, whilst looking for something else, I found multiple Dizzy games to play at my fingertips
In addition to that, I have now completed (and learnt the basics of coding) over half of a computer game that I never would have dreampt about creating before.....I would class that as personal gain:-)
P.s - Adz, I am rubbish at choosing where to start threads eh?????
I prefer the first Magic Knight game to be honest, Finders Keepers. It came out of nowhere on Mastertronic and hardly anybody I knew had even heard of it yet alone played it. I remember playing it for hours on end and mapping it all out and trying to work out the object combinations that would work. If I remember there were apparently 3 endings, but I only managed to discover 1. Still good fun though. A good mix of puzzle game, a couple of mazes, and a platformer.
The later games got the plaudits with the big cartoony graphics, but for me the first was the best.

I remember Finders Keepers....a little trip down memory lane for me. Just checked it out on YouTube and came across another game i used to play, 'Knight lore', how rubbish was that????
Aaaah, also seen 'Barbarian', 'Renegade', 'Target Renegade, 'Bruce Lee' and 'Knightmare', mispent youth eh????. Oh how I loved ?1.99 games...used to save all my pocket money to get the new release hoping for it to be as good as Dizzy and every time i was dissapointed cos lets be fair, the Amstrad was pretty rubbish!!!
Just remembered another aswell, 'Jack the Nipper', I don't even think you could complete that game???
Just had another thought...
Does anybody remember a game where you played a Monk? I remember you had to walk round a forest searching for herbs and if i remember correctly, you could warp via rings of mushrooms?
