Competition: Name the game
Anyone ready for a little "competition"? 
I start out, by writing a little about a game, the first one who guess's the game, may post some new game info, for others to guess...
Game rules:
- Games are not allowed to be newer than Amiga games, but anything before that is allowed (No matter on which computer it was played on)
- you shall write information about which computer you played it on
- Don't write part of the name in the game info, unless there's no way to avoid it
- Write as little as possible, if nobody can guess, write some more later
- Try to keep games, to be from computers, most people have had...
- If you're the first one to guess a game, and you're certain you're right, feel free to post your game info (In case you know you'll be leaving soon)... but other players are not allowed to start guessing, before the poster of the first question has approved the answer, or most other players approve the answer
Let's start out easy:
Computer: C64
Game info: It's a two player game, where player1 was white, and player2 was black. You could set different traps around the house, to slow down the enemy. Both players had a face, that looks a bit like Goofy

Darn. I always liked to play Ralph. He came especially handy for eating toilets.

Sorry I'm late. Okay here is a toughie. You begin the game with a spaceship you inherited from your uncle, it needs rapairs. You also inherit a contract to supply planets with equipment. You get more and better contracts as you go.
ACK!

I don't remeber inheriting the contract, but I remember the ship. Wing Commander Privateer sounds like the right answer to me. It was the first PC game I actually bought

Depending on where you start, you sometimes need a new engine (if you are planing to get to another sector).

I thought Elite would be too obvious, and Tuber did say it was "a toughie". Mind you, Privateer isn't a terribly obscure game either.

One more hint, it was only made for the Atari ST. Never ported.
ACK!

That probably rules out Elite then.

It may be too hard, since not a lot of people actually bought Atari ST's.
(I had one.)
ACK!
