Some platforms are on fire, which will turn out lethal unless you have picked up a water droplet in advance. Bumpy was remade for 16-bit platforms as Pop-Up, and then ported back once more (as Bumpy again) to the Amstrad CPC.

Players take on the role of the warrior who wants to become a knight. Players move from location to location looking for objects to take or manipulate in order to solve puzzles.

Cobra

MS-DOS - Released - 1987

Cobra, the space pirate hero of Buichi Terasawa's comic and TV series, receives a message from Dominique. Dominique is held prisoner by the evil Salamandar, and Cobra, along with his cybernetic assistant Lady (or Harmanoid, as she's called in the game's French), must rescue her. You start the game, and enter an isometric arena. You control both Cobra and Lady, each equipped with a gun. Shoot at everything that moves, and try to find the exit of the multidirectionally scrolling arena. As a backup weapon, you have also a set of five grenades to throw at troublesome enemies. Being hit once or twice is no problem, for you have a rather well-stocked energy bar. Controlling two characters at once means that you may be separated while rounding a corner or another obstacle, but the obstacles can also be used to regroup into a tighter or wider formation, depending on your choice of tactics. This tie-in uses a high resolution, at the cost of colours, to animate the screen with a high detail. Sounds is quite minimal, with no in-game music and simple sound effects. All in all, the game plays like a slower, isometric Gauntlet without the powerups.

The road is full of different obstacles, and it is the player's task to avoid them. The obstacles vary from traps, barriers, logs, pits, etc. to a truck scattering the debris or a wolf running in the opposite direction. Doggy may be controlled to jump and move on the road up and down. The dog's energy is gradually exhausting while it is running. Bones scattered on the road may be collected to refill the dog's energy. If the energy is vanished or with each obstacle struck, the dog loses a life. There are five dog lives at the start. The best scores are stored in a high score table.

Downhill Challenge

Commodore Amiga - Released - 1988

Downhill Challenge is a sports game, developed by Microïds and published by Brøderbund Software, which was released in Europe in 1989. An avalanche of unanswered questions buries Downhill Challenge before the skier gets a third of the way down the hill. The game attempts to simulate slalom skiing, downhill skiing, giant slalom skiing, and ski jumping. You had better know the rules of these Nordic events already, because the skimpy manual is little help. I was left wondering: How does the program keep time in the downhill events? What do the splits mean, and where are they taken? What is the penalty for missing a gate? How many times do you go downhill in the competition mode (there’s also one for practice) before you can move on to the next event? Besides pressing the Shift key or joystick button for extra height, how do you control the skier while jumping? At least you have above average graphics to look at while you ponder. The scenery you ski toward but never quite reach is nearly breathtaking. The viewpoint of the game is from about 15 feet behind the skier. The game would come alive much better if it actually put you up on the skis with perhaps only your poles showing in each hand, and if it didn’t sound as if you have a motor attached to your back after the starting bell.

Forteresse

Amstrad CPC - March 14, 1987

Forteresse is a graphical adventure game by a prolific French company Loriciels. It boasts digitized photos as location graphics, as well some digitized speech. The interface is icon driven with the actions like "go", "pick up" and "use" combined on the panel on top of the screen, which was made similar to Star Trap by the same company. There's no text prompt and no parser, the game text with the occasional choices is displayed on top of the picture. The game is set in medieval times, in the year 666, where Lord Angkor's daughter, Gwendolyne was kidnapped and imprisoned in a castle and locked in a suit of heavy armor, which is shown on the screen all the time. Your goal is to find the right keys to unlock the suit part by part, until the fair lady is free from her burden. But only one key can be carried at a time.

Frelon

Oric Atmos - Released - 1984

Frelon is an action game where the player takes control of a helicopter whose task it is to rebuild a bridge. The bridge is needed so that a truck can enter enemy territory. The problem is that the pieces of the bridge are scattered around five interconnected screens that the player has to traverse from a side view perspective. After locating a piece, the player moves over it to pick it up and returns it to the bridge where it is properly put in place. What makes this harder are the enemy forces that do everything they can to stop the player from fulfilling his job. Planes, tanks, rockets and falling objects are all things that the player has to avoid or shoot down. Crashing into these, the ground or their projectiles will lead to a life being lost. The player also has to watch out for the helicopter's fuel level, or else it might explode. There are nine different difficulty levels to choose from and when one is completed the game automatically moves on to the next one. The game ends after three lives has been lost.

Fusion 2

Amstrad CPC - Released - 1988

Explore an alien base and take out the enemy robots, security systems and computers. To its credit, Fusion 2 is a good-looking game, with plenty of colour and large sprites. You’re equipped with a laser and jet pack. Both drain energy when used but they will also recharge over time. You can also crawl through narrow gaps and utilise a teleporter. Your jet pack is used to ascend and descend through the base. Interestingly the game opts for two different methods when transitioning between screens – scrolling horizontally but not vertically. 2907: The Xylons have been living in perfect harmony with our people for a year already. However, upon their arrival on earth, the Ancients of the "Concept" had warned us against such an alliance. But the efficiency of the extra-terrestrials in carrying out the toughest jobs made us confident about the rapprochement of our two civilizations. We were far from imagining then that their formidable intelligence would allow them to quickly infiltrate the heart of our system. The Ancients had been right to warn us, but it was too late: the Xylons now held all the strategic points in our center. All seemed lost. When one day a stranger arrived in our city, dressed in a strange way...

Galaxion

The game ends when all three lives are lost. When all enemies have been killed the game moves on to a new level which plays in the same way. Before starting out it is possible to choose the speed of the attackers as well as the density of their missiles.

Godilloric

Grand Prix Rally II

Amstrad CPC - Released - 1985

Ten testing stages await the potential rally-driver in a reasonable version of the old arcade classic Pole Position. There are six different types of weather conditions you have to drive in with each one presenting its own particular problems that may stop you completing a stage within the time limit. Your screen view is of the back of your car as it heads along the curving road encountering other uniform cars as it goes. Acceleration is automatic, leaving you free to control left-right movement and the brake. At full speed you approach the other cars very fast, but unless you meet them on a corner they are easy to pass. Every car you pass gives you more time to complete the stage while crashing takes a large chunk off your allowed time.

Han d'Islande

Amstrad CPC - Released - 1988

A french language text adventure based on the literature of Victor Hugo. It was during the horror of a deep night, I walked in the Norwegian countryside thinking back to the adventures I had already experienced since the start of the game. It all started in the good town of Drontheim, which my privileged position (I am the son of Viceroy Ordener Guldenlew) had until then allowed me to apprehend in what it had more mundane. So I lived in peace, pretending to marry in just marriage with the daughter of the Chevalier d'Ahlefeld. Only my visits to the port, from where you could see looming in the distance, the sinister fortress of Munc-kolm, gave me a glimpse that a life full of adventures awaited me outside our proud city, shudderingly coiled up in its ramparts. The ancient geole Everything changed the day I entered the geoles of Munckolm to visit a prisoner. The latter begged me to help him by finding a certain Dispolsen, who, he said, held in his possession capital documents since proving his innocence. I accepted sansdêiai and went in search of the savior ... Oh Thanos scent (my beautiful tree) After having visited different places, very well put on the screen and supported by a scrolling with each lateral movement, I finally ended up in the morgue where I found Dispolsen as stiff and pale as a herring in brine! The famous documents had disappeared, probably stolen by his attacker, a rogue flèfé responding to the nickname of Han from Iceland. It was for me the opportunity to meet the keeper of the morgue, Spiagudry, a poor fellow that some hard cash soon convinced to lead me to the cave where Han was hiding.
