Starquake is a classic arcade adventure game by Merlin Software that was released in the mid-80s for various platforms, including the Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum, and Amstrad CPC.
Starquake follows B.L.O.B. (Bio-Logically Operated Being), who crash-lands on an alien world and must hunt scattered core pieces to save the planet—dodging hostile natives along the way.
Its massive 512-screen layout (16×32 grid) shines with a clever teleport system for quick navigation, fueling deep exploration.
Superlative graphics, excellent sound, and intuitive controls make it instantly accessible yet endlessly replayable. Clever puzzles deliver real satisfaction as you progress.
A genre standout for its scale, originality, and pure fun—essential for C64 adventure fans.
