I don't think anyone's mentioned Mouse Trap by Tynesoft. It's very underrated because it's too difficult for some, due to the slightly temperamental controls. I don't see any love for Jet Set Willy or Jet Set Willy II on here either :( .

I mentioned Mouse Trap !! see below


"Contraption was indeed an excellent game, superb graphics but I remember it being quite hard too, maybe have to revisit it again sometime. Another good platformer was Tynesofts Mouse Trap."
