With so many different QL Games to choose from I was wondering which ones people thought had the best graphics.

As I can't really suggest my own software, I would start with two games which at the time, I thought WOW -

Sadly I havn't played more than enough QL games yet but so far Alien Hijack looked very good, as does Mortville Manor which I'm trying now. For me I love seeing those super crisp hires chess pieces glide about. Really simple but very stylish too.

It was going to be released as a commercial program (through CGH Services), but the controls were too difficult really, so the author lost interest and made it public domain

Unfortunately, there is no sign of the manual!
