Never played Lynx before, just purchased my first two games. Excited to try them out! Any specific games that I should hunt for moving forward?

    Lynx was as much “the Epyx console” as it was “the Atari portable”. Epyx had so many high-quality games on Commodore 64; I have not played all of the Lynx ports but I can tell you that Electrocop was a sequel to Impossible Mission, in spirit. All of “The Games” (unlicensed Olympics) series were pretty great on C64.

    Early on, one of Epyx’s founders got sick of just reusing the Apshai engine over and over and left to found Free Fall, who created Archon - one of Electronic Arts’ first games.
