It's time for a new raffle of retro games. I went through my collection again and found some duplicates. And though it still hurts a little to give a game away, the thought of making someone else happy to get a game that they like outweighs that. The games are (from the top, left to right): Powermonger (Amiga), Sword of Excalibur (Amiga), Street Fighter (Atari ST), Pool of Radiance (C64), Heroes of Might and Magic V (PC), Eye of the Beholder (Amiga), King's Quest IV (Atari ST), Foundations Waste (Atari ST), Gold of the Realm (Atari ST), Starfight 2 (PC), Secrets of the Silver Blades (Amiga), Wizardry VI (Amiga), Elite (C64), Gyruss (C64, Cartridge), Windwalker (PC), Black Crypt (Amiga), Civilization IV (PC), Arkanoid II (C64), King's Quest III (Atari ST), Operation Wolf (Amiga) and King's Quest I (Atari ST). Simple rules to be part of the raffle. 1) Post the name of the game you want to have in the comments. 2) Share this post (thank you!) 3) Check out my Quiz Project (link in my bio) and play ANY of the Quizzes. Note: Looks much nicer on a regular computer screen, less fun on a mobile device screen. That's it, you are part of the raffle! In 3 days from now (10th of October) I will draw a random person from the group. I will post a video of the draw here. The winner will get the game of their choice, regardless of whether other people picked that game too or not. Good luck, and thanks again for sharing the retro love! #retro #retrogames

Coming soon to COMPUTE!'s Gazette Magazine: Amiga Resource: a new section dedicated to Amiga! SYSTEM HALTED: Is the A1200 Maxi Project in Peril? A working prototype exists , but legal battles keep it from fans. We're digging into the "Amiga drama" holding the A1200 hostage.

Thousands of people owned an Amiga, families, businesses, gamers, even NASA! Most of you probably moved from Amiga to PC (sad but true) Share this tweet if you owned (or still own) an #Amiga at some point in your life💕
