List of games that have not lost the plot

Post by Vic20-Ian »

This thread is about games that have not lost the plot i.e. they resemble a film or story quite well.

1. Mysterious Island - series of action games linked together based on the book by Jules Verne and the film with action games mimicking the plot

2. Alien Demon - graphic adventure with parts to collect, assemble, blow up the ship and escape in the pod, loosely based on the film Alien.

3. Computer War - Action / Puzzle game based on the Film Wargames starring Matthew Broderick and an Altair and W.O.P.R. (was that a veiled Product Placement by Burger King?)


Please suggest Vic20 games that are inspired by films, books, events and I will edit this post to collate the list.

Sargon II sticks pretty close to the plot of Computer Chess.
