You got it Till! RIP SSI.

 

[Till]

Indeed, one of the best companies of the early nineties.

Moving on, full steam ahead!

Syberia by any chance ?

Or, wait... maybe that strategy game where your base was a train ?

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

That second train pic - you wouldn't happen to have a wallpaper-worthy version?

There are two titles, which i will accept, but Syberia is not among them. You are on the right track with the second guess, though! I was almost expecting that a French poster would get this one.

Kan: How did you guess? Here and here are two wallpaper-y ones.

 

[Izipo]

You are on the right track with the second guess, though!

Believe me, I'm racking my brains right know !
Funny thing is I can pretty well picture myself browsing my video game shop for this title, on the brink of buying it, but not doing so. This is why I have a hard time remembering the title. This would be 88-92, right ?

EDIT : MIDWINTER !! right ?
EDIT 2 : No, that's not it. Pretty sure it was for the ST though...

Bit small, but I love the first one enough that it's my current one for now. Cheers

 

[Izipo]

Finally, I think I've got it...
Transartica
(midwinter was great IIRC)

 

[Till]

That's the one! Also known as Arctic Express.

Over to you!

It came out in the early nighties, i think. I first saw it on a friend's Amiga, but i read there was a version for the ST, too.

 

[Maniacal]

It's the original Stronghold game, right?

*murders TIll*

EDIT: Wait, what? Are we thinking of the same Stronghold?

 

[Izipo]

about Antartica : it came out in 1993 on ST, Amiga and PC. I can't remember if it was good or not.
Time for a new still.
Maybe this game has been done a hundred times already, but I just found a version that works on my PC and fell in love again.



It is, of course, from the intro. btw, there is a trick.
More stills coming later tonight.

[croaking] I meant this one[/croaking]

Whoever answers the current question should start a new thread, since we are already over 1,000 posts! It shouldn't be too hard to get...

 

[Izipo]

You're right, I didn't realize we went that far.
This picture should give us a winner quickly.


Bonus points to the one that can give the other more recent name.

 

[Rhymes]

Star controle!!!!!!

 

[Izipo]

Well, yes and no.
But go ahead and make the new thread while someone gives the PERFECT answer...
