Got my copy of The Drifter! 📭 😀

It comes in a beautiful box, the same size as the ones for Lucasfilm Games titles.

I hope I'll find time to play it this weekend 🤞

So here's a photo of all my Ocean France games in big-box format 💙

I have lots of fond memories of these games on my Amiga 500 🤗

My favorite is probably Beach Volley! ⛱️ 🤾 🏐

My 2024 #BigBoxGames retrospective! 🎉

From the most recent (Prince of Persia) to the oldest (Gobliiins).

An excellent year, even if I bought very few of them. Especially if I put aside the LRG boxes, bought in 2022/2023.

I love all these games 🥰

Goldrunner and Xenon, my two favorite shoot 'em ups on Atari ST. Impressive graphics and music that will remain in my memory forever.

The boxes are nice too 🚀 ✨
