Game Review

The Misadventures of Flink (or simply Flink) is a jump-and-run game created by Psygnosis and published in 1994. It was released for the Amiga CD32, Sega Mega Drive, and SEGA CD.

The game, designed and illustrated by Henk Nieborg, inspired the follow-up/remake The Adventures of Lomax. If Lomax had the excellent addition of the Lemmings characters, Flink has other exciting features. First, the spells' mechanics: your character will collect scrolls and ingredients during the game; once he has enough, he can combine ingredients to create new spells. Anyway, since he is still an apprentice, the result is not assured! Of course, the successful ones will become part of his book, which he can use later during the game.

Apart from the magic element, you have some nice platforming mechanics and, most importantly, fantastic graphics. It's not a surprise if you think that Henk Nieborg is the artist behind Lionheart. Flink is another piece of art (or "pixel art," if you prefer). Seriously, have a look at the screenshots!

The Misadventures of Flink is often considered one of the best games ever created for the Amiga CD32. Okay, maybe there were fewer, but it's still a great title you have to try.
