Ugh! 1992
Now and again a game pops out of the sky and knocks you for six. Ugh! sauntered into the office looking like a harmless platform caper, but it's a game that has taken us by complete surprise. The star of the show is a hairy caveman who has the hots...
Ultima 3: Exodus 1986
The original Adventure game appeared in the mid-seventies and was to be found on many mainframe computers. For all its success, there were some who wanted to see an improved operating system, as Adventure only accepted a simple showing each character's status. In 1977 a group at the famous Massachusetts...
Ultima 4 1988
Mention the Ultima series to any hardened adventurer and you will nearly always get the same answer. A wry smile, a knowing look and the feeling that something special has been shared between you, something that only experienced adventure role players have been a party to. There's no doubt that...
Ultima 5: Warriors of Destiny 1990
"Twice as large with twice as many of everything", was how Richard Garriott aka Lord British describes what he tries to fulfil in an Ultima game. The long running adventure series has developed something of a cult following now, and the latest game, Ultima VI looks set to take the...
Ultima 6 1992

Ultimate Soccer Manager AGA 1995
Footy fans will be cheering. Non-footy fans will be holding their heads in their hands in despair! Yes, it's another football management sim but before you switch off - this one is different I promise. It's by Impressions, yes those people behind rather serious strategy games, but it promises the...
Under Pressure 1991
Uninvited 1987
A GOOD adventure is either written in such a way so as to not encourage you to look too carefully at certain items, or simply tells you that the table is "just a table". Should you wish to pursue the more thorough approach of examining everything, I can recommend Uninvited...
Universal Warrior 1993
Zeppelin are obviously not ones for deep storylines as this, their latest budget release, puts you straight into the combat zone with only three objectives: stay alive, make lots of money and don't worry about the fact that there's no plot to speak of.This is a 'tank in a maze'...
Universe 1994
My mother will disown me when she finds out: Core Design's Universe has made a thief and a liar out of me and, worst of all, I'm proud of it. Of course adventure games have always encouraged this sort of thing, right from the very beginning of time when text...
Unreal 1990

Untouchables, The 1990

Uridium 2 1993
Video games are killing pop music. That's what some people say. If it's true, Andy Braybrook stands accused of being a mass murderer. You wouldn't think it to look at him, but his 'rap sheet' says it all. In April of 1990 Andy's conversion of the coin-op classic Rainbow Islands...
USS John Young 1990

Utopia 1991
How can you create an original game these days? The answer, according to designers Graeme Ing and Robert Crack, is to take out the best bits of previously successful titles and incorporate them into a new experience. Using the urban simulation concept of SimCity, they've added a Populous isometric-3D view...
Valhalla 1994
"I am the Prince of Valhalla," says a small, chubby-faced young lad, soon after the thunder has subsided. "And I have a sad story to tell." A potted history of the Kingdom of Valhalla follows: good against evil, and the Prime's quest for justice against his father's murderer, his dastardly...
Valhalla 2 1995

Vampire's Empire 1988
A popular criticism of 16-bit games is that while they have excellent graphics and sound, the underlying game may just as well be on any of the leading 8-bit machines. Unfortunately Vampire's Empire looks just such a game.You take the part of a grumpy old man, fascinated by tales of...

Vectorball 1988
This is one of the the oddest and most original sports games I ever had the pleasure of booting up on my Amiga. It is set in a surreal world of vector and shaded landscapes where the inhabitants of the planet watch their national sport, Vector Ball, whenever they have...
Vektor Storm 1994
Simplicity is everything. All that is great in this world can be attributed to the fact that it has intrinsic simplicity at its core. The second movement of Mozart's Piano Concerto Number 21 (in E flat) is a fantastically structured piece of elegant simplicity. The Japanese Haiku poems present beautiful...
Velcro Grub 1992
Venus The Flytrap 1990

Virocop AGA 1995
An antibody. What a terrible name for something which is actually rather useful. I used to read horror novels and I definitely saw horror movies long before biology arrived on my school curriculum and thus spent a sizable part of my youth thinking that an antibody was like an Antichrist,...
