What the hell is it Jan? Looks to be some sort of race game.
Saumun, you were close and it may be that they had it named differently, you could be right. It also was done better, I also had a B@W monitor back then. Here it is,

I don't remember that one. I see the obvious connection in theme with
Montezuma
, but whether the two games were in any way related... I don't know.

Alright, so this was from the

No, I don't think so. Well, there was a lot of jumping, though.

Are you people seriously suggesting that you don't recognise this absolute classic?
I mean this game defined the whole genre!

Yes, of course! But it's the other one, the second one, which has nothing to do with the first one. It's the first modern real-time war strategy. It's like not knowing the DM - you saved your skin in the last second, Saumun!
Urm... it's probably not the best time to say that I don't know yours
again , is it?

Lol Saumun, I was thinking of putting up a screeny from that game myself, as it happens. If I somehow failed to recognise your image, there had to be something wrong with me
. That is most definitely
Frontier, Elite II
and I have spent many hours playing it, both back in the day and in more recent years on DOSBox (for which I downloaded the exact same version we used to play on the Atari)
.

Lol, that one didn't last long... Yeah,
Frontier
was one of those games where half the day could disappear without realising it.
Here's another:

Damn, Saumun, this looks like something I should recognise, but I don't. Looks like an adventure game but I can't tell which one.
Now something very very simple:
