Nah, the Amiga version isn't that bad. Gameplay is a bit repetitive, but the controls are OK. Nice spider animations.

REVIEW: Arachnophobia suffers from EGA conversion colours and poorly sampled sounds. The controls are horrible, but luckily the gameplay is boring enough that no normal person will attempt to play this longer than some houses. The level design is non-existent and the tiny bits of extra screens thrown in for good measure don't make it any better (even if I'd consider them the 'highlights' of this car crash...) To sum it up: A truly poor movie license game that gets extra penality points for being badly converted from PC.

@amigafreak68k Yes, but that's a bad idea, because FS-UAE may overcrop the image, and without the "full" version, you'll not be able to recover the entire image then. So I strongly recommend always letting FS-UAE save at least the full frame screenshot. The OpenGL/real screenshot is not useful for the database. Use custom setting screenshots_output_mask = 3 to skip the "real" screenshot.

Thanks for the fast answer!

Ok. I agree. BTW: FS-UAE created three screenshots if F12+S is pressed. Is it possible to setup FS-UAE to only make the cropped screenshot?
Hi amigafreak68k, thanks for contributing images. I moved screen1 to screen5, as the first screenshot should preferably be an ingame/action screenshot
