Story:P. P. Hammer and his Pneumatic Weapon is a platform game with puzzle elements. It draws obvious influence from the earlier game Lode Runner. In the game, you control a character called P. P. Hammer, who is on a quest to discover and acquire all treasures from a series of more than 60 levels. These levels are divided into four graphical themes: Ancient Rome, Ancient Egypt, Medieval castles, and ice. A fifth theme, LegoLand, appears on bonus levels. Each level in the game is made up of rectangular blocks, and contains various things including treasures, enemies, locked doors, bonus items and traps. P. P. Hammer carries a jackhammer, which allows him to drill through a block he's standing next to. As in Lode Runner, drilling through more than one layer of blocks requires creating a triangle-shaped cavity more than one block wide, and blocks reappear after a short while. A block reappearing on top of P. P. Hammer kills him. P. P. Hammer can collect treasures and various power-up potions lying around the level. When he has collected all the treasures, the exit door opens, and going through the exit door completes the level. The player doesn't have to play from the beginning of the game every time; after completing each level a level password is displayed, allowing the player to continue from that point at a later time.Show more

War ein schönes Game mit vielen Leveln, glaube 100. Man mußte schnell sein und die richtige Strategie finden. Schöne Musik, Amiga halt. Sind auch ein paar Joysticks drauf gegangen. Wir hatten ne Zeit ein Wettbewerb, wer es weiter schafft. Nach jedem Level gabs ein Code, um dort wieder Starten zukönnen.

My dad has never been a gamer but this is one of the few games that he did want to play with me growing up. We have not been able to play it since back in the day when our old Amiga was still working. It would be amazing to play this with him again.
first fell in love with my amiga when i played dizzy! then i stumbled on pp hammer in a box of disks i had bought off ebay if i recall. its just blew my mind!! the graphics, the cig smoke, the wiggly butt on exit, the music! it was a perfect 100/100 game for me! still got my amig and all my disks and i even bought the amiga mini so i cud hook it up without losing space for the setup! i wish wish wish wish it would land on GOG! i love the game that much, i could literally buy it over and over(even tho its the same game) it has a special place in my heart and always will! ill run a 26mile marathon naked, ill shove balloons up my axx too! please bring it to GOG!

Peggle Extreme
Peggle ExtremeMayday! The Peggle Institute has been invaded by a host of other-worldly creatures. It's up to you, Peggle Master, to report to duty and shoot and bounce the critters to oblivion. Take your best shot with energizing arcade fun, now exclusively themed with art and sounds from The Orange Box. Peggle Extreme delivers fast-paced puzzle action that combines elements of pinball and pachinko to create a truly unique game experience. As with the original Peggle, Peggle Extreme requires players to fire a metallic silver ball from the top of the screen, relying on gravity to propel the ball downwards while ricocheting off orange and blue "pegs". The goal is to clear all the orange pegs from the screen before running out of balls. A moving "bucket" at the bottom of the screen offers free balls, while green power-up and purple "bonus multiplier" pegs provide additional twists. Peggle Extreme features one power-up in the form of Bjorn the Unicorn, whose special takes the form of a "super-guide" sighting capability which enables players to see where there next shot will go beyond one or two initial bounces.
