Amigos Retro Gaming Network - Amigos: Everything Amiga / ARG Presents / Sprite Castle / Pixel Gaiden

On this very special Halloween episode we grab our witchy broom and take on the PumpKing in this haunted game, CAULDRON!

Was it Doom, Magic Carpet, or just because all your friends were switching? We discuss this and our Discord community's other burning questions on this edition of Ask the Amigos!

The days grow darker, there's a chill in the air...that can only mean one thing...HORROR GAMES on ARG!  That's right, fright-fans, this week the chat DEMANDED IT and so Amigo Aaron and THE BRENT dipped their toes in the dark waters of horror.  Join us as we explore Eternal Darkness on the Nintendo Gamecube and Nightmare Creatures on the Sony Playstation!

One of the earliest space 4x games, Millennium 2.2 is easy to learn, has a great UI, and fantastic art. It's worth checking out to see the roots of one of the most popular computer gaming genres today!
