[AMSTRAD CPC] Prehistorik 2 Longplay part 1/2

(Titus, 1993)
One of the last commercial games to be released for the CPC and also one of the best. You control a caveman looking for food, and among the many monsters you'll face are bears, spiders, wasps, dinosaurs, and a huge ape halfway through the game. There are also lots of bonuses to collect. What makes this game stand out from other platform games is the graphics, which are truly awesome, especially on the Plus version, which features extra colours and parallax scrolling. The music is also terrific, and it's the only commercial game I know of that exploits the Plus' enhanced DMA sound facilities. Thankfully, the gameplay on the normal CPC version doesn't suffer, and it's a hugely enjoyable game to play.Enjoy!

Sadly my copy has stopped working. I never got to finish it either! :(

Is it on a real hardware or an emulator ?

Seems a bit slow...but graphx and music were great even in OLD CPC...

I have this and play it on my CPC 464 with a 64k ram pack and External disk drive. It's a pretty epic setup but at least i can play the 128k mode :)

Strange, this version is the CPC 6128, but features DMA music...

This isn't even the Plus version and the graphics look sweet... you should do the Plus version also just for comparison?
