A Compendium of Commodore 64 Games: Volume 1

It’s impossible to understate the Commodore 64’s influence on both the home computer and video game industry. Indeed, it reigned supreme as the best selling home computer for over 30 years, only being overtaken in more recent years by the Raspberry Pi, but even this is argued. The C64 was a machine that truly exemplified the famous phrase once used by Commodore founder Jack Tramiel “Power without the price”. Not only did the C64 manage to outsell all its rivals in its homeland of America, but also gained enormous traction across the whole of Europe too, meaning it has one of the largest software libraries of any computer ever. From its famous SID chip to the multi-coloured hardware sprites the C64 might have been a micro computer at heart, but it was one that definitely had gaming in mind.

This second edition of A Compendium of Commodore 64 Games: Volume 1 now features over 300 game reviews, 3 totally new developer interviews and a fascinating fact filled article looking at the entire Commodore 64/128 range. This isn’t a list of the best Commodore 64 games, a list of the worst ones or indeed a complete guide to what’s available – it’s simply a meandering nostalgia filled journey through the C64's 10,000+ games. These range from the earliest titles released at the start of the eighties, to public domain games and even modern homebrews that have been released in more recent years. This book is the perfect companion to a true home computing icon!
