The 30 Best Atari ST Games Ever Made!

dungeon master probably the best for me

Something I forgot to mention. It’s so fun playing these old games again, when we had to use our imagination. Today’s games are stunningly beautiful but I find much more pleasure in these older console and computer games. You could really get lost in these. am I crazy or do others feel the same way? I’m curious.

Ah, my childhood was great, I owned or played pretty much all of these

I absolutely loved super sprint, spent so many hours playing this on my brother's ST.

Dude! You’re on fire today. Two amazing videos. That FM Townes stuff was amazing. I never knew there were so many great arcade ports!!

Cant argue with number 1 , Turrican 2 is my top on ST or Amiga, such a go to , easy to pick up and play game!

The way I played Populous, I always built two levels of land whereas the enemy AI only built one level. After playing a couple of hours, when both had a lot of land & people, I made it flood. All of my people were safe whereas all the enemy houses were sunk. A few stragglers managed to swim to the shore but they were easily dealt with.

Spent many hours playing this on my old C64. First game I bought when I got my Atari ST, simply brilliant. Dungeon Master and Chaos Strikes back with Elite in my top 10 Atari ST games.

I loved the Defender of the crown, played all day

Great vid osg.. some fab choices.

I never knew I needed to see Robotron with llamas until just now.

21:49 The green disembodied head of a woman pops up and asks "Where did YOU learn to fly?"

Great list, some I hadn't seen before. A few missing in action were Virus and Sleep Walker. The latter made use of the STE's advanced graphics and sound, making it akin to the quality of its Amiga counterpart.

I see that you have a love for 3D ST games. Nice !!!

I loved my ST although I used mine mainly for music and recording. It was fantastic for music back in the day. Ive seen archive studio footage of Depeche Mode and they were using the STE to help record one of their albums. But I still found time to play some fantastic games. I’m glad you had DM at #1. That and Chaos Strikes Back were brilliant. I can still recall the excitement and tension of wandering around those corridors. Give me that over things like Elden Ring anytime. Llamatron too. Another classic. Used to sit up to the early hours with my housemate playing 2 player. We finished all the levels, killing off the Screaming Mandies on level 99 before looping around it all again. I would have also picked these games. Eye Of The Beholder - Like Dungeon Master with an upgrade Ishar 1 and 2 - A French company, I believe (Silmarils). Another RPG but with beautiful graphics. Fire And Ice - Stunning but tough platformer starring Cool Coyote. Took nearly 2 hours to play from start to finish Gods - Bitmap brothers Greek god themed platform game. Classy and very addictive As was The Chaos Engine. More Bitmap Brothers. Great 2 player fun. The Killing Game Show - seemingly forgotten masterpiece. You’re a prisoner in a mech suit. Aim = get to the top of the level before the deadly, rising liquid death catches you. Some of the levels were designed so that you got to the exit literally with microseconds to spare. I had to rub chalk into my palm as it was so sweaty from stress that the joystick kept slipping 😮 Lure Of The Temptress - Point and Click adventure in a Game of Thrones type world. No titties though. Cannon Fodder - guide your platoon through the jungle killing the gooks. Id be traumatised if one of my little men died 💀

Great choices!

Amazing! have to mention Rocket Ranger and Barbarian 2 :)

Carrier Command, Defender of the Crown, Dungeon Master... amazing games....

dungeon master the best ...a lot of nights ,days :)

I used to play altered beast on my mates ST as a kid, along with kickoff which I used to be ok at...however I tried playing it recently on antstream for the Amiga it's safe to say I got hammered. Turrican 2 is still brilliant I often play the SNES version. Great picks by the way fella
