Just wondering what everyones least favourite Risc Os games were.
I would have to nominate BombScare, not because its a bad game idea, but because it has had nowhere enough effort put into it, and the menu, GAWD terrible thing. Its as if some year 7s gone crazy with a powerpoint presentation, and in order to read the options, you have to sit back as if long-sighted.
Who would have thought the authors of such a magnificent Cheating Utility could make such a crap game?

Does TIB keep official records of the longest recorded time between challenges and comebacks?

Threads get resurrected so often around here, it's not infeasible...

RISC OS, too cool for Javascript.

To be honest, I'm not sure why I ever nominated Galactic Dan, it's grown on me.

I recently played The Exotic Adventure of Sylvia Layne for the first time a few days ago. Remember looking forward to the release all those years ago, it looked like it would be pretty good. Now it's just laughable graphics and jumping moves where you can land on your head. And it starts with a creepy-looking old man saying how pretty you are. Weird weird weird.

I have a boxed copy of this, but never dared install it since it always looked a bit, erm, dire. An alternative title would also have helped, I think.

Looking on the same site that Holger linked to about KillerBugs, they have The Exotic Adventures of Sylvia Layne as well.

Sylvia Layne is by Tony Oakden, who was responsible for the highly-regarded 'Quest' on the BBC.
