Terry's Big Adventure is a platformer created by Gametec and published in 1989 for the Commodore 64, Amiga, and Atari ST.
The game is clearly inspired by Great Giana Sisters, which was, in turn, a sort of clone of Super Mario.
There are 12 levels in totals, with colorful and cute enemies, such as snails and hedgehogs. Terry can use a yo-yo as a weapon, which makes things different from the usual gameplay. However, Terry's Big Adventure doesn't pretend to be anything more than a simple and fun platformer with classic 8-bit graphics. Even on the Amiga, where more colors are used, the 8-bit style is clearly visible but perfectly executed. Add addictive music composed by the legendary Allister Brimble.
Barbarian is an action game created by Psygnosis initially for the Amiga and released in 1987. It was later ported to Amstrad CPC, Atari ST, Commodore 64, DOS, and other platforms.
