Team17 Collection 1 

 

I am so excited that I got completely caught up with video recordings of the Evercade cartridges. Now it is time to work on getting them reviewed. Team17 Collection 1 is the next compilation cartridge to review. There are ten Amiga computer video games in Team17 Collection 1. To be completely transparent in the past Team17 has been extremely hateful to Family Friendly Gaming.

The games within Team17 Collection 1 are Full Contact, Alien Breed Special Edition, Body Blows, Project-X Special Edition, Qwak, Arcade Pool, Alien Breed Tower Assault, Alien Breed 2 The Horror Continues, ATR All Terrain Racing, Kingpin Arcade Sports Series Bowling. One racing, one sport, one simulation, two fighting games, four shooters, and one platformer video game in Team17 Collection 1. This collection is heavy on the violent video games. Team17 Collection 1 is also heavy on the Alien Breed games which are honestly not that good.

Some of the controls in Team17 Collection 1 are frustrating. I am looking at Full Contact, Arcade Pool, and Kingpin Arcade Sports Series Bowling. The way to progress in some of the Alien Breed games were a mystery to me. Plus limited ammo did not help. I got stuck in those game multiple times. I do not consider that fun. There was literally no way to progress in the game that I could figure out. So start over and try again. I hate wasting time and those games felt like a waste of time to me.

The music in most of the games on this compilation cartridge are nice to listen to. The real stand out game in Team17 Collection 1 is Qwak. This game is so much fun. I loved playing Qwak. It is listed as a platformer but it also has some puzzle elements to it. Qwak is the shining star in Team17 Collection 1. The fighting games have horrible character balance. I could only win with certain characters.

The ATR All Terrain Racing irritated me with its controls as well. Team17 Collection 1 is an interesting historical collection that does not have a lot of games for families.
