Can't remember much about this one at all except I played it on my old PC Jr in the early/mid 80's....you flew around in a ship, I think you flew inside space stations to refill your fuel...believe the areas were called "quadrants", and there may've been enemy ships and I want to say mines floating in space perhaps?
I know that's not much to go on, but, ANYTHING? This has been driving me crazy for years.
You can't recall even the point of view? or you haven't read Forgotten Games Bureau manual of use...

No, I can't. I was maybe five years old at the time, we're talking 25 years ago. Either from the side or the top..I just know it wasn't first person

Sadly, year-range is not implemented in search, so you have to click the years yourself to limit the title list. Try your luck.

OR he can use the /list-games/ suffix to show a more detailed list of titles that can be ordered by year (this is normally only linked to when there's more than 250 results... a horrible design choice)
