Wow the memories.
I used to be obsessed with some of these, like Karateka, Choplifter, Rescue Raiders, and Loderunner.

I also used to love Hard Hat Mack, Moon Patrol, Spy VS Spy, Spy Hunter, the list goes on.

Yes. I remember it very well. I started playing it again through an emulator. The graphics look funny now but I remember it being the best looking graphics adventure.

does anybody remember a game where you flew around on a flying skateboard thing around a big impressive map and tried to kill the other guy who was flying around on a flying skateboard thing

Oh man thanks for the trip down memory lane!
Some other goodies: Wizadry, Rescue Raiders, Aztec, Swashbuckler, Bolo, Taipan, Blode (sp? a birds eye view game of two knights fighting, ridiculously hard to control but gory and fun)
One other memory: All the 'cracked by Mr Hack man' etc. openers on your pirated games.

I played Lode Runner every day at lunchtime in the school computer room until I could see the little man running around when I closed my eyes! I knew then that I'd over done it! Serpentine was another favourite.

I have to add some:
The search for the most important thing in the universe (an awesome game but boy were we unimpressed with the ending!), Gruds in Space, Sherwood Forest Adventure, Chivalry, (the first) Castle Wolfenstein, The Summer Olympic Games, Montezuma's Revenge... Thanks for the memories! Yes I still have my IIe in a box downstairs. I'm trying to figure out how to extract data from the 5" floppy disks!

Wow, does this bring back memories! I'd spend half of Saturday at the local library swapping games with others, then play all week. My favorites were Ultima III, IV, Stellar 7, Lode Runner, Aztec, Karateka and Drol.
I briefly got into the Zork series, which was actually pretty cool for a text-only game.
Sadly, the //e with the green screen ended up in the trash many years later, along with about 300 disks full of games. Kind of wishing I would have hung onto it....

Thanks for the memories!

I played Karateka on Apple IIe, so yes, these are Apple IIe games.
This is an awesome page! Nice memories. I always played Bloody Murder, Pulsar, Blaster and almost all the time the freakin eagle from karateka kicked my butt.

The games you listed up there are not Apple IIe games.
They are all just Apple II games which are not in Double Hi Res Mode.
I want to see Apple IIe (or //e) games only.

I have a feeling revisiting the graphics on a game like that would be really funny - pixelated, green lined poker women.

You forgot Strip Poker, it was the best!

Y'all are really bring back memories. Wow, that Conan game! How about the beautiful and boring Airheart? A IIe exclusive!

Was it Conan?

..."Then was a room with lava and bubbles you could ride up. Finally you could take on the evil witch"

Here's a screenshot.

Actually, I do remember playing this game. It was called Conan: Hall of Volta .

Do you remember or are you aware of a graphics adventure game that, at one point, consisted of a guy jumping into a bubble to float to a certain rock ledge (or something like that) on the screen. It came out in about 1982 or about the same time as karateka. It was a fantasy themed game and I cant remember the name of it to save my life.

Yknow what would be awesome - if the iPod could be turned into a //e emulator. I'm sure the chip could handle all these old games.

Yo man, did u ever play Drelbs, kickass game. Of cours Karateka and robotron are also up there in my favs. I still play them every now and then on the old emulator ;)

I think with Ultima, there were just so many and they kept getting better and better. I 'll check out Rescue Raiders (emulation!)

Re: Apple IIe: Games I Loved

Archon — Tue, 23 Jan 2007 13:37:03 -0000

Rescue Raiders over Choplifter any day... but dang is Rescue Raiders hard. Escape from Castle Wolfenstein, F15 Strike Eagle, Silent Service and Stellar 7 were some of my favorites (along with Karateka, one of the few games I actually bought, and Mario Bros.). I was more of a Wizardry player than Ultima, but I loved them both.

Hey sang... I never played Zork or strip poker. somehow I think the graphics on the IIe would leave something to be desired for strip poker :) but with an emulator maybe I should give them a try, today...

Re: Apple IIe: Games I Loved

sang — Thu, 04 Jan 2007 01:55:20 -0000

karateka was great. the princess would kill you if approached with a fighting stance. you had to run to her.

i really loved aztec...the first //+ game i've ever played.

ultima 2 is classic. where is zork and strip poker on this list???

Re: Apple IIe: Games I Loved

webomatica — Mon, 01 Jan 2007 12:19:13 -0000

You may gasp but I never played Wizardy. I think the Ultima games took up that adventure / role playing niche for me, anyhow...!

What about Wizardry???
