Out of all the Lynx games released... what's the first game that comes to mind when you think of the Lynx?
Personally, Slimeworld always comes to mind when I think of the Lynx. I got this game in a trade a long long time ago and it was instantly one of my most favorite (and more interesting) game for the Lynx. Sadly I never have had the chance to network them together up for the multi-player fun that I missed out on.

Slime World is my favorite Lynx game so it comes to my mind as well. Especially the multiplayer mode :)
Alpine Games is also one I think aobut now. Man that is a sweet game. But this is only one we're talking about.

I never did get Slime World but I bet it must have been a blast lynxed up!
Me and a bud bought ourselves each a Lynx, Xenophobe and the Link and
wrecklessly wasted about 10 hours with out a break. Man did our necks
hurt but it was grand!!!! I can only imagine how well that might work with
other games. I understand the lynx is a really easy system to code for too.
I always did want to look into it. After seeing STUNN Runner with polies, I
new it had a serious pair! One of these days i'll have to check SW out and
see how cool it is.

Personally, I'd have to say Rampage - this is *the* game that sold me on the Lynx (well... that and the fact that it was made by Atari... :) )
Clint, since you're in Indy - one of these days I'll have to challenge you to a game of slimeworld :)

Xenophobe was the first Lynx game I owned but for me it has to be STUN Runner, words cannot describe how impressed I was by that game back in the day.

Warbirds is one of my all time favorites. I loved Shanghai too. Todd in Slimeworld was a phenomenal game!

If you haven't played Slime World, then you haven't experience the full enjoyment of the Lynx. :up:
I would also love to play BattleWheels linked, but it's tough to find anyone else that has it.

I dont have time to play my Lynx, especially if I have to fire my crew. I'll be a one man code writing team.

You're complaining about having a hard time finding anyone with Battlewheels? I have a hard time finding anyone else with a Lynx, let alone a specific game! :p
I am lucky enough to own multiple Lynx systems, the ComLynx cable, and two copies of Slime World, though... :)

Chips Challenge would be the first game I think of, although Warbirds is a close second.
As atariman posted, it is hard to find someone to Lynx-up, and enjoy a multiplayer game. The best luck I have had would be bringing your Lynx to classic gaming shows/expos. ;)

It's hard to narrow it down.
- Paperboy, because it was the first game I ever played on a Lynx. Graphics are a bit(!) rough, but the gameplay is great.
- Ms. Pacman, because I think it's a great port of the arcade game.
- KLAX, because it is a SUPERB port of the arcade game.
- Shanghai, because it's a deep, involved game that can consume me for hours.
The Lynx was a fantastic portable. Too bad there was never a Lynx 3: thinner, lighter, and with better battery life.
