  I really like Wings.  Only had to deal with disk loads between 
missions.  And with my Supra 28 MHz accelerator, played beautifully.,

  For dungeon crawlers, I always like Black Crypt.  But I was addicted 
to the SSI games, too.  :)

  I was always disappointed that they never made an Amiga version of 
Alternate Reality:  The Dungeon.  Was one of my favorite games on the C64.

  Frontier Elite II was good, too... despite its bugs!
