Prince of Persia (1989)
Released for PC, SNES, Mega CD, ZX Spectrum, Atari ST and Macintosh, the original platform game prided itself on the realistic movements of the characters and the 'real-time' effect of time limits to complete a level. The Prince had to solve a range of puzzles to work through the luxurious palace and its dungeons, as well as sword-fighting guards, skeletons and even his own reflection at one point. Not to mention the famous 'leap of faith' last level - if you played, you'll remember.
