Circus Attractions

Yup, that's the one!

Looks a bit like...Circus Games?

Very close!  It is "Circus... something", but not Games...

Okay, keeping to the same theme...

I think it's a circus game on the ST/Amiga, but I can't think of the name!  Um... Fiendish Freddy?

Is it Pirates! ?

YES!  One of my all-time favourite games.  Lost many hours of my youth to it...

I hope THAT is not "young daughter" he talks about?

Ha!  There were 4 levels - this was the worst one. 

They got better... and of course harder to win over:

The end result always looked the same on your wedding day - must have been the veil!!

The ones in the remake were considerably bustier...

[Disc]

Ah well, it was released by Loricels and simply called Disc.


Okay this one should be easy (I think) - screenshot from the Atari ST version, this game was popular on 8-bit and 16-bit systems, and a remake was made some years ago updating the game concept for modern PCs.

Okay one final hint...

The game has a one-word title and was released by a French game publisher.

Saddle / Horse's head?

The only game this makes me think of is BASS, and I know that's wrong!

Afraid not!

It's not an adventure game - it's a futuristic sports sim.

I'm not sure posting another screenshot would help, because they're pretty much all the same... so I'll give it another day and if no-one gets it, spill the beans and try another one.

[isn't]

Hint?

It isn't TRON.

B.A.T. - One of my regrets is that I've never actually played that game - it looked pretty amazing at the time!!


Okay this one is going to be dead easy to anyone who's ever played or seen it, but the game itself (16-bit era) is perhaps a little on th obscure side.  It was a great game though (at least I thought so!).

B.A.T. ?

Well, it looks like one of them "Forgotten Realms" games, or game using similar engine UI.

In that case... Heroes of the Lance?

Talespin?

I'm only (slightly) familiar with the Spectrum version which obviously looks a little... different! - but from what's just been said I'd have to guess at The Hobbit?

Dunno what it is, but definitely not TSOMI2 for several reasons! 

I Love Mark Lovegrove - Deluxe Edition?
