This is, together with Tanglewood and Major Motion, one of the three Microdeal games I used to play on the Amiga. Also the only one who's name I could remember for a long time. Back then I had no idea what copyright or IP infringement was so when I got to a map that was clearly a Star Trek ship I was like "Woah, this looks like the Enterprise". Still my english was only rudimentary so the out of place text adventure bits kinda stopped me from advancing too far in certain parts. While in others it was my lack of skill that did it. I wanna bandit some time again.

HeroQuest
HeroQuestThe famous fantasy-themed board game was converted into an isometric-viewed role playing game in which the evil Wizard Morcar must be defeated. You take control of a wizard, a dwarf, a barbarian and an elf, each with different strengths and weaknesses, who each start the 14 missions from opposite sides of the board. Strict turn-based movement rules apply, as actions other than movement can only be carried out before or after the move, the size of which is limited by a dice roll. These moves are carried out using an icon-based system. Characters can fight the many monsters which lurk, or cast spells to vanquish them. There are magic potions to uncover, but also hidden traps, so mapping is advised. Treasure can be collected, and traded at the shop after each level.

Devil May Cry
Devil May CryOriginally intended to be the fourth installment in the Resident Evil series, Devil May Cry is an action-adventure game that introduced a host of new elements to the gaming community. Chief among them is the Stylish Rank, which grades the player's performance in combat. The game is split into Missions, which are individually scored according to various factors, such as Orbs gathered and damage taken. Additionally, Devil May Cry did away with the pre-rendered backgrounds of prior Resident Evil games in order to allow for a dynamic camera system.
