Turning regular jobs into game concepts was quite popular, especially among british developers. In this game, you play a guy who has to glue advertisement posters onto billboards. 1/3

A very short text adventure with graphics, that was included as an example with Incentive Software's Graphic Adventure Creator. The goal is to find enough gold to pay the king's ransom, and with only five or six rooms and no real puzzles, that's fairly easy. 1/3

Rescue on Fractalus was of the two first games released by Lucasfilm Games (later LucasArts), and is an impressive and fun space action game seen from the perspective of the pilot. It uses fractal-based graphics to create impressive landscapes to explore. 1/3

A pretty decent version of Exidy's arcade original. This is a submarine game where the goal is to destroy either the enemy fleet or the enemy sub that’s actively trying to destroy your fleet. The enemy sub can also attack you, but you can dive to get out of the way. 1/3

Here's a third screenshot from Barbarian II (Axe of Rage if you're in the US). A great-looking flick screen action game from Palace, where you navigate three large and labyrinthine levels to find the objects needed to defeat the evil sorcerer Drax. 1/3

A simple collect-em-up. As the blue face, grab the gold and bring it back to the house (again and again) while avoiding the scary looking faces that move from side to side. It's copyright Corbois Software from the Netherlands, but I don't know if it was made by them originally. 1/2

The first of SSI's Gold Box role-playing games based on AD&D – and perhaps the best. Your party of heroes arrives at a town called Phlan, and the goal is simply to restore it to its former glory by clearing its various areas of monsters and bandits. 1/4

Promoted as «The Greatest Game Ever Written,» Tau Ceti might not be that but it is actually quite impressive. It's a first-person open world game with 3D graphics, where you control a hovercraft and explore the planet Tau Ceti III. 1/3

The original Star Trek was created for mainframes in 1971 by Mike Mayfield. It was later ported to BASIC and published in Dave Ahl’s famous book 101 BASIC Computer Games, before being expanded into Super Star Trek by Bob Leedom in 1974. 1/4

Also known as Super Wonder Boy, this is a pretty good conversion of the arcade game that seems to feature all the original content including the different secrets. It's a colourful action platformer with an economy and ways to improve your character. 1/3

A very interesting football (soccer) game from Italian publisher Simulmondo. It's essentially a 3D football game where you control one player and the camera is positioned right behind him so you basically see the game from his point of view. 1/3

A proper classic, and a one of a kind game. This is a racing sim that ditches your average racetracks for roller coasters where one slip-up means you'll go flying off the edge. Not only that, but there are jumps and other tricks to contend with. And another car! 1/3

This is a wargame designed by Gary Grigsby and published by SSI. Basically a turn-based modern warfare simulator, and known as one of the most complex wargames on the Commodore 64. 1/3

This doesn't have anything to do with the James Bond movie. It's a pretty simple sci-fi arcade game with five distinct levels (not unlike Gorf, for instance). The screenshot is from the first one, a sort of Space Invader meets Missile Command. 1/2

A very early game from Ocean Software, who would go on to become one of the most profilic developers and publishers on the Commodore 64. As you've no doubt guessed, it's «Missile Command at home». 1/3

This is a cult classic from US publisher/developer Cosmi, designed and programmed by Paul Norman. You need to complete seven varied and difficult trials, starting with this one where you must run all the way to the pyramid while dodging spears thrown from the side. 1/3

A public domain word puzzle game written in BASIC, based on the Canadian TV game show Definition (which aired from 1974 to 1989). Two players compete, and the point is to guess the correct phrase based on the clues offered. 1/3

A well made free puzzle game released by Cosine as a contribution to the 2011 RGCD 16kb gamedev compo. The computer will shuffle the rows and columns, and you need to restore it back to how it was. It controls a bit like a 2D Rubik's Cube. 1/2

A side-scrolling racing/platform game based on the animated TV series of the same name, which was being revived as Fender Bender 500 at the time. You play Dick Dastardly and Muttley in the Dirty Truckster, and have to navigate several levels full of obstacles and enemies. 1/3

A pretty unknown game from Epyx, this one sees you defending a lunar outpost against alien attacks. You view the outpost from above, and have to move to intercept the enemies (preferably without them destroying too many buildings before you can catch them). 1/3

This is a very good conversion of the Sega arcade game, done by Virgin Games. Like in the arcades, it's a side-scrolling action game where you play Joe Musashi, who has taken it upon himself to defeat the ninja crime syndicate Zeeed. 1/2

A great conversion of Taito's arcade racer. Buggy Boy (also known as Speed Buggy) is one of those racing games that just try to be a fun game first and foremost, with a ton of cool things to do to increase your score and just have fun on the quite unrealistic tracks it offers. 1/3

A very well liked game published by Sirius Software. Bandits is apparently a clone of the Taito arcade game Stratovox. The game puts you in command of a spaceship at the bottom of the screen, and have to deal with 28 surprisingly varied waves of alien invaders. 1/3
