Amiga - Magic Pockets

[FreeEnergyTruth]

Bitmap Brothers always made the best games. Loved Magic Pockets!

[kickthestoat]

Hang on!! Is that music Betty Boo - Just doin' the do? I used to love this game...

[stufaman]

My jaw hit the floor back then. Digitised singing in a computer game was practically a myth in those days.

[UTubesGr8]

I played this when i was a kid. Memories. This featured on a tv show wasnt it where the caller controls guy with telephone maybe? Or by voice lolol. Magic Pocket ftw xD

[mensk070]

Wow amazing so nice to see this again...

[james1808]

Wow I remember this so well! All my childhood Haha

[MrLien2U]

Does anyone remember seeing this on Motormouth on a Saturday morning... or is this old fart just showing his age?

[kalsolarUK]

@MrLien2U yep, I remember it too on there.

[ice22879]

no i remember it too. the viewers had to shout instructions down the phone

[A14n79]

@MrLien2U Yes I remember it very well, where they controlled the actions over the phone!... Good times!

[Eggtruck]

@A14n79 But didn't the character throw boulders in that version?

[ciacho86]

@Eggtruck what you throw depended on level, there were rocks, snowballs and grapes

[mrwilksthefirst]

@MrLien2U - Yes I can remember seeing this, couldn't believe they were playing a game I owned on the tele. Peddling his little legs on that bike and blowing bubbles with chewing gum to float..

Ahhh those were the days ;)

[mrleeballs]

where can i find this game?

[thebestok786]

Nothing beats the great laser helmet in this game although the tricycle was rather good! Thank you for bringing back some great memories.

[BluntAnim]

Man this game was frustratingly hard.

I can remember almost tearing my hair out!

[maker74]

Terrible playing, not making the most of the bonuses! Capturing the enemies was the only way to go, the bonus would increase if you'd spin and slam the captured creep with lots of force. Just killing them with small tornadoes is such a waste ;)

[fremmenik]

I love magic pockets and im trying to source the lower quality rom theme....

It was a much better theme. Blips and blops.

[MBishop85]

i think that was my favorite game back then

[thenottakenone]

mine too .. well with lemmings of course

[MBishop85]

of course! lemmings are classic! ;))

[Bluesage2009]

HAHAHA

Now that i look back at it.

THIS WAS GODS or GODS was THIS LOL

LOOK AND LISTEN CLOSELY HAHA.

Like today, they re-used the same "engine"

LOL!....

[B14UTA]

TOP GAME. GOOD OLD DAYS

[Velli83]

Terrible player but I loved this game =)

[Rilyn666]

omg thers so many amiga games i want to play again, but i cant get a decent emulator without needing extra system roms and shit, anyone got any ideas?

[darthdmun]

i remember this game, but i can not for the life of me remember why i liked it. ....just like zool!

[FireKracker]

LOL fun game at its time and even audio samples of "Betty Boo, doing the do" in the title music!!

[LoboTheMainMan]

great amiga game!

[5li3e]

bang on.

[tomaszkajor]

amiga's version is horrible. there are no tips&tricks for it. it's the only game I've never completed

[breakfiendy]

yeah that last bit on the snow level with that evil bubble, you had to collect those weird throphies that didnt do anything, then use the teleport helmet

[r8qt7]

the frogs look bored :)

[BurtWilson1]

The Bitmap Brother's could have done with a lesson from Factor 5 (Turrican) on coding. How jerky is that?

[LiquidFilter]

i used to love this game when i was like 10

and i finished it
