Amiga 500 Longplay [285] Rick Dangerous

www.longplays.org
Played by: SCHLAUCHI
The plot of Rick Dangerous is largely based on the Indiana Jones movie Raiders of the Lost Ark. Set in 1945, British agent Rick Dangerous travels to the Amazon jungle to search for the lost Goolu tribe. His plane crashes in the jungle, and Rick must escape from the enraged Goolu. When the game starts Rick finds himself in a cave running from a rolling boulder, a famous scene from the Indiana Jones movie.

Immensely satisfied that the death WAAAHHH made it in at 0:50 - remember playing this (and more so the sequel) quite a bit as a child, never got very far, died a lot, my "totally legit" copies of the games didn't work most of the time...but still a lot of fun.

[@Phantom.Gaming64]

I just love that death scream. "WAAAAH!!" 😃

[@ArttuTheCat]

One of the greatest Amiga games, I have ever played 😺👍. WAAAAAAH!!!! 😹

[@YukoValis]

This was like a precursor to Splunky. It is quite in-depth and amazing for the time.

[@LordGrayworth]

I LOVE this game!

I never got past having a broken Ankhel :) Those later levels look mighty difficult!

[@MarcGameplays]

The forth level is the hardest.

[@oliverbaba1882]

would be a great addition as a download for psn or switch online!

[@p6mkq]

So you could break your pad in a fit of rage.

[@t-birdmr.t7980]

spent countless hours on this game on Amiga. Always trying to get the full 6 lives when making it to the last level #4. I believe I did it a few times.

[@anFy81]

YES! ONE OF THE GOATs!

[@RetroGamingBlog]

Firebird! Great game. Played on the ST first way back.

Fora really good modern take on this, check out 1,001 Spikes.

[@anFy81]

3 min in I can a) tell why I never got this far as a kid b) really appreciate the quality of the gameplay - well done :)

[@gabry4354]

Great game fair play to finish it in such a low time I toke quite a lot to finish it

[@QP300]

Well, they sure didn't spent much money on sound effects 😂 I do remember that I found the intro melody very catchy - and still do till this day...

[@MajkiPGWCh04]

One of my favourites games on C-64 ahh

Brilliant game

[@slickrichelicopter8977]

Reminds me of the game HERO...

[@TheStuffMade]

I both love and hate this game.

[@MarcGameplays]

This game is MUCH better than the "trap adventure", that has become famous because some youtubers played it.

[@TrueSolunar]

This game approved by the Wacky Wario Bros…

[@jevidetout1845]

Love it thx

[@kevintamas7164]

Even with cheating this game was so hard.

[@elcasho]

Loved this game but I was so bad at it

[@XanthinZarda]

Years later, someone at Telegames would get the terrible idea to port these to GBA.

(6:25) "Broken Ankhel". Heh.

[@TrueSolunar]

At least a certain “dancing” cat is nowhere to be seen…

[@pureflix8086]

Wait... is this guy just murdering the natives?!

[@p6mkq]

They wanted to murder him.

[@TrueSolunar]

Casual genocide is just another Tuesday for… RICK DANGEROUS!!!

[@austinreed7343]

They are “wild Goolus” as opposed to the “domesticated goolus” he wanted to see. So he sees them as wildlife, and him attacking as possibly justified self-defense.

[@pureflix8086]

@@austinreed7343 ...thats pretty awful.

[@austinreed7343]

@@pureflix8086 Especially the implications pf how he treats animals.

[@kenflagg]

So Rick is looking for the Goolu tribe, then because he doesn't do proper airplane maintenance checks (and is likely a terrible pilot) crash lands right in the middle of Goolu country. He has succeed! He found the tribe! And then he kills them all. Hmm. I don't think I like this Rick Dangerous very much.

[@quamenmike2338]

His name says it all!

[@pookieizzy7]

Gamers these days say 'I remember this was hard when I was a kid'? You felt like you were on a time limit and you weren't. This is long before an age of speedruns and World Records was really a thing. Every game is about trial and error and to err is human as they say. My time with Core was when Chuck Rock came out.

[@darrenhirst9900]

You couldn't finish the game due to an error of the design team. You had to fall on a ledge to the right but the ledge wasn't long enough so you fell into the lava and died. They brought out Rick Dangerous 2 soon after.
