And Finally…

One of the good things about Antstream is its breadth of genres. From text adventures to pure shoot-‘em ups, the platform has you covered, and this continues within the Amiga portion of its games library. Also included are platformers such as Venus The Flytrap (90%, issue 66), Flimbo’s Quest (77% in the same issue) and Ocean’s comic Mr. Nutz. Racing games are plentiful with Gremlin’s Super Cars series leading the pack, closely followed by Ocean’s Burning Rubber and Miami Chase from Codemasters. There’s even pinball action in the form of Pinball Dreams and Pinball Mania together with some extra tables to ping that silver ball across. With plenty more, including strategy games such as The Humans and hack ‘n’ slash adventures like Sword Of Sodan, Antstream Arcade is a decent proposition for Amiga fans, especially with all the pesky emulation taken care of. With challenges available on many Amiga games, as well as the opportunity to test yourself on the high score tables, it may not be technically the best emulation – but is nonetheless well worth investigating for a casual blast or two.
