ok, seeing a AFF is out of the question, here are my top five favourite PD games in order. If any of these games get voted in I'll be very happy.
1. The Adventures of Quick and Silva - a very polished platform shooter with an interesting array of enemies and lots of levels - (as seen in one of my reviews).
4. The Attack of the Green Smelly Aliens from Planet 27b/6 - a superb variation on Space Invaders with full 360 degree shooting and an independantly operated shield.
5. Missile Command - the classic anti-nuke action game.
---
Some other games I considered were:
Aquanaut - by F1 Licenseware - (cybernoid clone, wouldn't mind playing this actually)
Drip - (great first few levels but gets too hard after level 8 to be fun).
Magnetic Fields 'MF' Tanks - (smooth and fast but a bit boring)
Scorched Tanks / Tanx - (excellect games but have no high score tables)
Damage: The Sadistic Butchering of Humanity - (HOL says its commercial)
Catch 'Em - (catch the moneys!, but HOL says its commercial)
Dr. Mario - (a good Tetris variant but too repetitive for me)
Dr. Strange 1 & 2 - (ok gameplay but not very rewarding, DS2 is a bit better)
Hydrozone / Speedracer FX - (both great games but no high scores possible)
POD - (another space invaders clone, not as fun as Better Dead TA..)
Cybernetix (dropzone/defender clone, quite good but not 'my thing' really)
Also remember: "The two games with the most votes will be played in the next round."

The only Public Domain, Freeware, Shareware, Coverdisk full games, Promotional, or even hidden game I can think of that I have played and is suitable is Manhole (2011) by Lee Hurley Productions.

1. Metagalactic Llamas Battle at the Edge of Time (I'm sure this is a favourite amoungst most of us so I will not go into any further detail)
2. Sneech (I love Tron games and this is one of the best)
3. Bally II (another Tron type game, this one probably IS the best but I voted it lower down because, strategically thinking, Sneech is more likely to get the vote)
4. Insectoids 2 (never played Insectoids one but I like the second)
5. Space Taxi III (reminds me of my Spectrum days).

lifeschool, Adventures of Quik & Silva is under commercial licence isn't it?
I thought it was given away on magazine covers, and because it infringes on other games and is very short, makes sense that it's PD. So Lemon's license info may be wrong. Although it is very polished and came out on multiple systems. Anyone else remember this one? _________________ Lemon/EAB Super League 2013 - Round 6: Arcade Pool
