Ooooh, i actually played some of these, and remember rather liking a few...
Brain Damage, Cyber Rats, Orbiter, Slippery Sid, Starship Enterprise. All rip-offs, but very playable.
Slippery Sid stands out as the one i had most fun with but i don't expect it to win. Worse Things Happen at Sea was pretty decent wasn't it? I never played it though.
I'll vote Slippery Sid, and my top three will be...
Slippery Sid
Cyber Rats (Always a sucker for a good Centipede/Millipede clone)
Starship Enterprise
First computer game i ever saw at 8 years old on a Commodore Pet (4k i think) in 1979 was Star Trek. Starship Enterprise was pretty much the same game so i have fond memories of this one...
p.s. Best Centipede/Millipede clone i've seen, Millenipede. Grab it here...
