[Dacobah] My CD-i and VCD collection
Today it's sunday, and it's also a sunny day. What a perfect time to start taking photos of my CD-i collection! 😀
Let's begin with some interesting games.
Master Labyrinth is a multiplayer video game based on the famous Labyrinth board game from Ravensburger. I played it solo, and also with another player. The 3D view is interesting. Very fun to play.
Christmas Country is a cool platformer title for the CD-i. There are a lot of hidden places and secrets to find, like in a Super Mario game. The weak point of this title is the lack of a music background.
Atlantis The Last Resort is a FPS, well I should say more a Wolfenstein-like than a modern FPS. It's an immersive 3D title that works very well if you like this kind of game (I do!). There is the possibility to insert a CD to play your own music. When you finished the level, you have to swap with the Atlantis CD and then re-insert your music, but it will start from the beginning again (nevertheless you can also insert another CD to make the new level more unique). Love the idea!
Zenith has a nice concept of moving a bouncing ball through a world, but seen from above. There is a lot of traps, secrets and bonus. The depth sensation in 3D is well done.
Nice titles.
Christmas Country and Zenith are missing in my collection.
For my part, I did not have much fun with Atlantis. The graphic style is very poor.
Salut DataPro !
Thanks. Yes I can understand what you feel about Atlantis. But I like old and obscure FPS, so I'm quite comfortable with this one. Not the best for sure. It was released the same year of Goldeneye (N64), Quake II (PC) and Blood (PC). But it's one of rare examples of 3D graphics on CD-i, so I'm happy with it 🙂
