1. Curses (et al) :-) 2. HoMM2 3. A few tied for third I think - Angband, Wonderland, Simon The Sorcerer, Lemmings 2, SimCity 2000 (though only the first of these still works on my computer...)ATB, Matthew |

Top three selling RISC OS games are probably much different (Lemmings, E-Type, something else), but I've always liked... Elite Syndicate Several others including Speedball II, Doom (et al.), Quake... a few bubbling just under like Abuse, Magic Pockets, Flashback, Magnetoids... Damn, three is just too few! Quite a few conversions there I'm afraid, technically even Elite. Oh well. |

Tricky question.... I think the ones I've played the most are Lemmings 2, Stunt Racer, Star Fighter and Doom1/2, although other great games are Zool, Elite, HoMM2, Descent, etc. Hopefully TEK & ID will be at the top the day they're released |

1. Curses (et al) :-) You're quite right! Curses remains one of the great works of IF. I think though I would have to choose "A Mind Forever Voyaging" - surely among the finest computer games ever - as the best game I ever played under RISC OS. |

Just to put the record straight: 1) Stunt Racer 2000 best game on any platform 2) Star Fighter 3000 3) Doom+ OK, Doom wasn't a native game, but we needed it. If we'd had Doom when the PC did, well I think our history might have been different. I back Stunt Racer as the most fun I've had with computers, a game so far ahead of it's time. |

1) Elite. Without shadow of doubt the best game ever! 2) Stunt Racer 2000. Absolutely brilliant, I was lucky enough to have a serial cable to connect an A3000 and a RPC and play killer! Brilliant3) Always liked Sim City 2000, probably the best conversion to RISCOS yet. |
