I enjoyed Undercover: Operation Wintersun too quite a bit.
Nibiru - Age Of Secrets was mixed bag though. I agree that Gemini Rue is overrated. i should visit Stupid Invaders again. I remember i had a lot of fun playing it but not much more. Perry Rhodan is in my spring-break plans. Thanks for mentioning Dirty Split, Mad Manny! I had never heard of it before but it looks interesting. Download just finished. |

However, I think most AGers tend to know what Tony Tough 1 is -- and so many of them seem to love it. I just wish they'd translate the sequel into English already and release the damn thing in the states!

I agree. Now Tony Tough 2 is really underrated (well, for that reason). It is a great game as far as I remember, better and funnier than the original one.

Definitely agree with Perry Rhodan. Love that game, a really fantastic looking game as well. Love the universe.

If you've got a copy and know how to get it to run on a modern machine then by all means let us know.

It may be nostalgia talking but I loved Blue Force when I played it in the 90s, a police game by Jim Walls. It might not be as great as the best Police Quest games but I remember being gripped by it and thought the graphics were good at the time. Surprised it hasn't been reviewed on this site.

Mad Manny, thanks again for Dirty Split! Finished it, a great adventure!
Speaking of other underrated adventures - imho Hector: Badge of Carnage wasn't praised enough. I really loved it. Also Clover: A Curious Tale was really really good, i loved the conspiracy story set to medieval times, art style, music. |

Finding a legal copy of such an old game is the hard part. The other consideration is, if a game is that hard to get hold of, a positive review now is just going to frustrate people. Not all older stuff is classic though. I did this review of a pre-site game in 2008 and it was definitely not a case of a cruelly neglected masterpiece.
