What were your favourite C64/Vic20 games? Was the Vic20 that popular in the UK in the 80s?
Not the commenter you asked but... I played Rapier Punch on the Vic20 and I can't remember anything else. I never knew anyone else with one so maybe not that popular?
Uridium ... Jetpac... Time Tunnel...
Chiller / Thriller - the one that had to change it's name & music to avoid legal action from Michael Jackson: https://www.gamesthatwerent.com/gtw64/chiller-v1/
Er... the Last V8...
Man.. there were loads and I don't really recall their names, but can recall the games
Vic-20 was the lower cost option of the C64, so yeah, loads around. Of course you always wanted the C64... then the C128 and then the Amiga...
