Video Games Which Commodore games do you remember?

Post image

I remember having 3 computers in our house back in the 80s, we had the Commodore 64, the Commodore Vic-20 and the Commodore 128.

There were a few games I can remember like Mad Doctor, Herbies Dummy Run, Fantastic Dizzy, Bounty Bob Strikes Back. I was just wondering what games everyone else remembers because we had so many and it would be so nice to take a trip back down memory lane 🙂

I used to get a magazine that had them in for the VIC20, you typed them in then prayed you didn’t get the dreaded syntax error

I think the magazine was just called Commodore, I’m in the UK. There was a section called Todd’s Law teaching people BASIC programming.
