My vote goes to (if you havent guessed by the sig) Escape From Cyber City .. although it was a close contest between that and Dragons Lair.

can you explain me what is the fun about these games? I find them way too difficult, frustrating and rewardless for any short button-combination after another and another and another....

I found Dragons Lair is pretty easy ... you just need to remember the order of each direction you have to push or the button and then just invert the left/right direction when it changes angles lol. Its just remembering the order thats the hard part... Plus Dragons Lair II wasnt really a "One of a kind" ... Dont forget Space Ace used effectively the same engine.


As for escape from cyber city .. how is that complicated ... its a simple point and click/shoot game .. Yes it CAN get frustrating but thats the whole fun of it .. to beat it and get to parts you haven't done before. Ive completed it several times but I like to see the "headlines" when you lose a life lol.

As for the rest I havent really played that mugh of them to comment ... my experiences literally being about a min each at the old Phillips shop that used to be in town when I was still very young lol, convieniently thats where we got most of the CD-i titles frm as they were the "For Demonstration Use Only" discs that the shop was given, we got a load of about 15-20 discs for something around the £20 mark lol.
