The Llamasoft Collection
SCORE: 68
There are twenty-seven retro games on The Llamasoft Collection
Evercade cartridge. These games are from these systems initially -
VIC-20/VC-20, Commodore 64, Spectrum, Atari ST. They are 8-bit to 16-bit
computers from way back. Many of the games in The Llamasoft Collection
look old. In fact Ratman looks like it would be one of those Game and
Watch kind of a video game. I live streamed all twenty-seven games on
our Twitch channel.
The games on The Llamasoft Collection are Abductor, Andes Attack, Deflex
V, Gridrunner (A), Hell Gate (A), Laser Zone (A), Matrix Gridrunner 2
(A), Metagalactic Llamas Battle at the Edge of Time (A), Ratman!,
Ancipital, Attack of the Mutant Camels, Batalyx, Gridrunner (B), Hell
Gate (B), Hover Bovver, Laser Zone (B), Matrix Gridrunner 2 (B),
Metagalactic Llamas Battle at the Edge of Time (B), Revenge of the
Mutant Camels (A), Revenge of the Mutant Camels II, Sheep In Space,
Voidrunner, City Bomb, Superdeflex, Llamatron 2112, Revenge of the
Mutant Camels (B), and Super Gridrunner.
Some of the games are really similar. The A and B versions are usually
on different systems. So what happened was Llamasoft released their
games on different systems but kept the names the same. So this Evercade
cartridge needed to differentiate them somehow. Many of the games on The
Llamasoft Collection are clones of other more well known and popular
games. A lot of The Llamasoft Collection feels familiar. There is an
obsession with llamas and camels on The Llamasoft Collection.
Hover Bovver is one of those games on The Llamasoft Collection cartridge
that really sticks out to me. Players go to their neighbors garage and
borrow the lawn mower. We must then mow all of the lawn avoiding the
neighbor and a dog. Hover Bovver is challenging but still a really fun
idea to play. The two Deflex games are interesting on The Llamasoft
Collection cartridge as well. We must put these flippers that will guide
the main icon to a specific spot. Sometimes patience is all you need in
that game.
There are a few games on The Llamasoft Collection cartridge that might
mess with your mind thanks to some crazy colors being used. Other games
on The Llamasoft Collection look like the old Atari 2600 kind of a game.
The best looking game on The Llamasoft Collection cartridge is Revenge
of the Mutant Camels (B). City Bomb is another interesting game on The
Llamasoft Collection cartridge.
