Hey everyone its hidden gems time again. I’m OSG and today ill take you through 10 c64 games that I think didn’t get the love that they deserved. Some letters are harder than others and N didn’t have a great number of games beginning with N but I think I’ve pulled it off and found some real quality hidden gems

2:10 - OH MY GOD, I have been trying to remember this game for 25 years! I never would've guessed that name, I just immediately remembered that mothership, the way the enemy ships explode, and then remembered that it had the longest loading times of all the games I had, lol! Thank you for finally uncovering this memory for me!

[rcchronicles]

That was ridiculous! That has to be the best one yet! Some class games there. I would love to try Nautilus 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I’m starting to wish the alphabet had more letters I love this series

[ncf]

9%.... damn those Zzap! guys were cruel sometimes... considering back then most games were programmed entirely by 1 person, especially in 1983.

[XaFFaX]

Another great one with great music - Neuronics!! Damn it was hard a few levels in...

[RyanDanielG]

LOL misspelled "strenght" in Ninja Massacre... in the HUD no less.

[drkamilz]

Ninja Commando is one of the games I played, enjoyed, and finished (w/o any trainer/cheat) back in the day. Kevin Franklin did an awesome job on the programming side.

Hi! Thanks for the video!
Nibbly looks very interesting! Ninja Massacre seems to me like a strange Gauntlet clone. I prefer platform "ninja" games over others.
Ninja Commando wasn't hidden but thanks for reminding about this great game! :) Nova 2 seems to be a Deflector clone (if it wasn't earlier) and I think that we have a lot games like this on mobile devices.
I can't figure out what's going on in Night Shift game. Although it looks interesting.

Nibbly looks great! great idea for a puzzle game

[geoffreyjohnstone]

I actually really like the look of Ninja Massacre. No Mercy is one I totally missed. I cant even remember a dozen games beginning with O for the C64 so really looking forward to that as no doubt I will see plenty I missed out on.

[retrobeastgames]

i like ninja commando, nice game on the c64, great video mate :o)

[marceltiel]

Nibbly 92...played that one and real addictive. Still play it today sometimes on emulator

[PedroFerreira-sxgd]

Great list. Already tried night shift, but never managed to understand how to play the game.Nautilus and necromancer are great games. Sugestions for letter o. Out-space, O'Riley's Mine and oils weel (all lock raw, but have great gameplay).

[pomegran]

Necromancer reminded me of Alleykat on the Atari 800 (a brilliant game) then amazingly I find out it's by the same author, the late Bill Williams. Will definitely be giving this a go on the C64

[reinhard]

Neutral Zone ist always worth a round. 👍

[Hounddoggy]

Neutral Zone is a classic! Someone had their head up their rear.

[eskey]

Great list yet again and i actually had a game that was on this this and that was Night Shift and i use to play the hell out of it. So the other 9 are new to me an i may even give a few of them a try. Keep up the great work and roll on the next letter, take care buddy :-)

[buffyfantastico]

Ah No Mercy, Like Operation Wolf & Cabal had a baby

[panjin]

I used to play the hell out of Necromancer. Got to go back and see if I remember how.
