Game Databases:
 Hall of Light
A veritable encyclopaedia of the Amiga’s game library, equipped with a very precise search engine. Perfect for tracking down a game whose name you’ve forgotten. It also features scanned documents (notably manuals and reviews from magazines of the time).
Lemon Amiga
Hundreds of illustrated entries to browse, with comments and ratings from visitors.
Atari Mania
The same thing, but for Atari games. Very comprehensive.
Atari Legend
Another database dedicated to Atari games.
Games That Weren’t
This site catalogues games (mainly for the Commodore 64 and Amiga) whose development was prematurely halted. It provides press articles from the time and preliminary sketches.
Webzines, Game Reviews, and Help Sites:
 Amiga Impact
Amiga news (yes, really), classified ads, and articles packed with jargon!
Amiga France
Amiga news (yes, really), classified ads, and articles packed with jargon!
Obligement
An online magazine dedicated to the Amiga, its software, and its games.
Amiga Museum
Everything you need to learn how to use an Amiga emulator. Configurations for WinUAE, games, and music downloads, among other things…
Insert Disk 2
Game reviews with screenshots (and some fascinating empty pages).
WHDLoad Support Page
Emulating an Amiga game spread across multiple disks can sometimes cause issues (Beneath a Steel Sky, for instance). This site provides hard drive pre-installed Amiga games for advanced users.
Video Game Companies and Professionals:
Lankhor Abandonware
A comprehensive listing of all the titles from this now-defunct video game company (Le Manoir De Mortvielle, Maupiti Island, Vroom, and others). All these games are freely downloadable, alongside period documents (reviews, advertisements, manuals).
TLK Games
The site of the creators of Tecnoball and Equality, fondly remembered by everyone as true classics of their time, yes?
Psygnosis.free.fr
A tribute to one of the publishers that defined the Amiga’s glory days.
Psygnosis.org
Similar content, but in English.
Dream 17
All the games developed by Team 17, for the Amiga and CD32, available for free download.
www.simonphipps.com
The site of Simon Phipps, a graphic artist who worked on Rick Dangerous, Switchblade, and Wolfchild, among others.
YouTube Channels:
PsykoSeb
Short presentations of retro games (mostly Amiga, but not exclusively), well-written, articulate, cheerful, and free of profanity.
Kim Justice
Her documentaries meticulously depict the video game industry of the ’80s and ’90s (mainly in the UK). She revisits the history of major publishers or developers (like Ocean, Bullfrog, The Bitmap Brothers, Psygnosis…), the hardware (ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, Commodore 64, Amiga, Atari…), and the often ill-fated commercial strategies adopted by companies of the era.
hipoonios
This channel has been inactive for years, but I hope it stays up for a long time. It offers hundreds of longplays, without commentary, of obscure Amiga games (mostly amateur ones). It’ll either make you smile or send you to sleep. Me, I could spend hours watching it, wide-eyed, like a kid on Christmas morning.
ChinnyVision
Reviews of old games and hardware from the 8 and 16-bit eras (Amstrad CPC, Sinclair Spectrum, Commodore 64, Atari ST, and of course Amiga, among others). Various adaptations are compared.
