RetroKork - Wacky Races

Another episode, another Hanna-Barbera license. This time, however, the game is not as straightforward in its interpretation... but that's "Wacky Races" for you, right?

RetroKork - Yogi Bear

Today's episode features a bear smarter than your average bear - except for his little buddy, of course. (Then again, Boo-Boo isn't that average a bear either). Yes, it's time to talk three Yogi Bear games.

RetroKork - Carmen Sandiego

Yes, I know the video is late, but here's my look at Carmen Sandiego on the Commodore 64.

RetroKork - Action Service

This game is not a member of the Action Force/GI Joe brand and yet its name suggests otherwise. But it clearly is a take on some ideas in Combat School, if I'm not mistaken...

RetroKork - Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders

In this episode, we deal with aliens. Not the kind that hunts you down, just the kind that is obsessed with Elvis and aside from that is rather... simple-minded. Still, it's Lucasfilm Games' own "Zak McKracken".

RetroKork - Maniac Mansion

Today I'm discussing a game from Lucasfilm Games - and the origin of the "SCUMM" references in LucasArts games. Why? Well, because I have been asked to by Klaus Wandelburg in the comment section of YouTube.

RetroKork - Advance To Boardwalk

Today I play a board game... well, the Commodore 64 version of it. And while the titlecard shows Mr. Monopoly, it's not Monopoly proper.

RetroKork - Action Force

Today I talk about Action Force, which is a game based on the toy series... which itself has a history related to GI Joe...

RetroKork - GI Joe

You may be thinking "GI Joe? Is he now talking about cartoons? Or action figures?" But no, this is about Epyx' video game adaptation for the Commodore 64.

RetroKork - 9 to 5 Typing

Today I'm going to talk about a rather unique piece of software: 9 to 5 Typing by Epyx.

RetroKork - Back To The Future (Commodore 64 video games)

Considering that 2015 now lies in the past, I decided to take a trip back in time... well, a trip back to the Commodore 64 versions of the Back To The Future video games.

RetroKork - Aussie Games

Today, instead of holiday games, I talk about "Aussie Games"... And yes, it has nothing to do with the holidays. Well, maybe except the fact that they have the same holidays in Australia...

RetroKork - Dallas Quest

Based on a suggestion from the YouTube user "FaithTheSlayer", I've taken a peek back into my younger days... well, and at Dallas Quest, obviously.

RetroKork - 1000 Miler

Today's the day we play card games on motorcyc... no, wait, we play card games based on car races - no motorcycles involved. Yes, "1000 Miler" is basically a card game.

RetroKork - Sidewalk

Today is a day where it'd make sense to wear a leather jacket, have some gel in my hair and go for a slight rockabily look. Why? Because that's what the protagonist of "Sidewalk" seems to go for.

RetroKork - Friday The 13th

While it's not Friday and not even close to the 13th, being this close to Halloween makes it a good time to bring out the horror movie games. And in this case, it's all about Jason Vorhees and Friday the 13th (and Sunday the 15th, to some extent).

RetroKork - Knightmare

Today I shall be discussing Knightmare - the games released with that name on the Commodore 64, that is. After all, I'm no film (or TV) reviewer... yet.

RetroKork - 720°

So today we go round twice, if the game's title is anything to go by... I mean "720°" does sound like that, doesn't it? But instead, it's a skateboarding game - and I talk about its Commodore 64 conversion.

RetroKork - International Soccer

After last time's Football Manager, the ball's now at our feet... Or mine at least, since I'll talk about International Soccer.

RetroKork - The Football Manager Series

Well, today I look at an older football management series that only shares its name with a current game. I'm of course talking about "Football Manager" of days gone by. Well, the Commodore 64 versions at least.
