|  Impossible Mission +4 | | Posted by Csabo on 2022-07-25 |
 Rub your eyes and do a double-take: this time it's real, the legendary C64 game Impossible Mission is here, available on your Commodore Plus/4.
Anyone thinking that TCFS maestro returning in 2022 with Bruce Lee Anniversary Edition was a one-off miracle is in for a (pleasant) surprise. Cue all the "Impossible!" jokes... Forget all the fakes, don't worry about how the Plus/4 doesn't have hardware sprites, and believe your eyes: the main character is running, somersaulting and hacking computers in all it's glory. The influence of this classic is undeniable as it spawned many knock-offs (A-07 or Rózsaszín Párduc, anyone?), but this is the real thing.
Go play it now! |

| | Lykia - The Lost Island | | Posted by Chronos on 2022-07-14 |
 Lykia - The Lost Island - is an epic quest for the expanded C16 + Plus/4 and the C64 that spans 4 disk-sides! Apart from the impressive cinematic intro and outro sequences, Lykia - The Lost Island offers a large, lively and freely explorable game world consisting of 580 screens spread over 2 continents. 10-20 hours playing time for the average player. This world is inhabited by over 40 interactive characters, all woven into the story in their own personal way (with about 2000 lines of dialogue text). In addition, there are 37 items with different functions, day and night modes, as well as an integrated help system and the possibility to save the game state. All this is crowned by 25 outstanding music tracks each by Markus "c0zmo" Jentsch (C64) and Ronny "5tarbuck" Doll (Plus/4). The models are unmistakable: Lykia - The Lost Island is of course also a loving bow to the masterpieces of Shigeru Miyamoto. However, the game does not try to copy Zelda one-to-one. Lykia is an adventure game, but not necessarily an action game. The pacing is calmer and there is more emphasis on characters, story and puzzles than on combat. There are also elements and quotes from point-and-click adventure games.
The free version is available now here, and the boxed releases will be available very soon at the Psytronik's webshop. |
