Even though I hate you I'd personally appreciate another night of staring at 30-year-old pixels to see if anything will fire in my considerably older synapses...

OK, clue time.

1. This is a not very well known spin-off from a very well known series.
5. The Ultimate Wannabe.
7. A budget title whose title is anything but budget.
10. Probably the best game in its year of release (which has already been established as "recent").
12. This game has already been mentioned elsewhere in this forum.

Correct answers so far are below:

2. Sabre Wulf
3. Catacombs of Balachor
4. Jetpac
6. Boulder Dash
8. Knight Lore
9. Robin of the Wood
11. Booty

1 isn't Dandy is it? I can't find the jewel on the map but the clue fits, wondered if you'd been crafty and not taken it from there.
