Equinox?Skeptics should forego any thought of convincing the unconvinced that we hold the torch of truth illuminating the darkness. A more modest, realistic, and achievable goal is to encourage the idea that one may be mistaken. Doubt is humbling and constructive; it leads to rational thought in weighing alternatives and fully reexamining options, and it opens unlimited vistas.

nope to all so far, but some good attempts - i'd forgotten about alien8
clue 3:
If like me you like natural history then this game tipped its hat to nature......a little bit, even though it had a futuristic setting

Nope not an adventure(in the way you meant).
Clue4:
It was an isometric 'arcade adventure' game.'The very basis of the liberal idea – the belief of individual freedom is what causes the chaos' - William Kristol, son of the founder of neo-conservitivism, talking about neo-con ideology and its agenda for you.info here. prove me wrong.

Rogue Trooper?Comment
-
No, but i remember being really exited about that game - i was a big rogue trooper fan
i'll include all the clues here:
Clue1:
the music/sound effects stood out - creepy and weird which fit perfectly with the game setting.
Clue2:
because the graphics used the highest resolution of the platform, they were in monochrome - which also added to the alienesque atmosphere.
clue 3:
If like me you like natural history then this game tipped its hat to nature......a little bit, even though it had a futuristic setting.
Clue4:
It was an isometric 'arcade adventure' game.
Clue5:
Termites/bees/and sci-fi

As for the game, haven't a clue. I've played a few isometric games and know a few more. An isometric adventure game with bugs?...

Midwinter II was buggy as hell.
I don't know. I thought it was Ant Attack, and if it's not that then I'm stumped.

I guess you could say it was inspired by Ant Attack
Clue6:
This tuff budget game came out in 1987,
Some liked it alot - saying it was close to heaven.
Others were not so kind,
As each platform was different they did find.
Most had a 3D isometric view+more,
Accept strangely the poor C64.
Whittiker did the sounds and music proud,
A classy title that stood out from the crowd.
Bonus clue:
You had to find the safe 'route' to your target and hope the enemies didnt destroy your 'armour', although you could pay for repairs and extra weapons and gizzmo's as you progressed through the levels.Last edited by child of Thor; July 13, 2004, 07:01.'The very basis of the liberal idea – the belief of individual freedom is what causes the chaos' - William Kristol, son of the founder of neo-conservitivism, talking about neo-con ideology and its agenda for you.info here. prove me wrong.

Ah i see the verse was an unfair advantage for you
Correct it was indeed the nice isometric(except on C64 ) game Amaurote .
On the 8bit Atari the sounds were excellent, they really convey a creepy sci-fi atmosphere

It was that familiar rhyming ring that gave me back my zing!
That one was a toughie until the final clue with the C64 overview. Haven't played it myself but I did remember reading reviews about it.Skeptics should forego any thought of convincing the unconvinced that we hold the torch of truth illuminating the darkness.
