Now that would be a tuff one![/QUOTE]

But Wizard's Lair was a copy of Atic Atac. It might be better. The sound FX where better.

Not for this thread.

I like both of them equally as much.

Wizard's Lair is, in my humblest of opinions, a great "non-related sequel" to Atic Atac.

I would choose "BOTH" if the poll allowed it.

Wizard's Lair. No Atic Atac.

D'oh! I always get them two mixed up!

Atic Atac.

I don't remember much about Wizard's Lair, so I'll give it a try again. I did play it all those years ago, but I can't remember much about it.

It'll have to be very good to shake my love for Atic Atac, though.

Voted Atic Atac but Wizard's Lair is a great game.

Stephen Crow games are generally excellent especially Starquake, I love the presentation and music/sound fx.

Agree with Matt_B that Starquake V Underwurlde might be interesting.

Atic Atac. Another case of the original being the best. Wizard's Lair is a fine game too of course. I like the addition of level codes.

Not a company, but Stephen Crow turned out great software...
...and 3 of them from Bubble Bus Software.

Starquake, Wizard's Lair, Firelord, Factory Breakout. All good games.

Just curious... I can see the Atic Atac Wizard's Lair connection but how much do Starquake and Firelord owe to Ultimate?

Still play loads of speccy stuff. Quite a lot of it is five minutes at a time and largely for curiosity value but there's a large number of games I play "properly" including [I]Manic Miner[/I], [I]Wizard's Lair[/I] and [I]Head over Heels[/I].
