Really cute graphics and ambiance but a second basic attack, the ability to grab or to jump kick, anything really, would have improved the over-simplistic gameplay that becomes dull after a few levels.

Is it me, or are none of the songs in game actually by Motörhead? Wtf were they thinking

Seems to me this game took some ideas from the 1986 Konami game Rock'n Rage.

Above average beat'em up as far as the Amiga is concerned. It is kind of a Double Dragon clone so very limited gameplay wise and controls could have been much better. With a bit of practice the game becomes quite entertaining anyways and I'm sure that having Lemmy (R.I.P.) and the heavy metal themes in will always appeal to many (7/10).

I actually did not discover this game for until now recently when I startet playing the Amiga again after 25 years of absence. Motorhead is my favorite band so that's sad and amazing. I'm so happy that the game is cool, got nice graphics and a decent gameplay. Bashing non-rockers with the bass, riding motorcycle, etc... It great fun. If you're a Motorheadbanger, this game is a must

Interesting beat'em-up with a refreshingly different feel to it. Played it a few times and liked it quite a bit. Verdict: Not bad at all.

Licence was with Lemmy direct, i.e. Not the record label - hence no official music could be used.

Motörhead is a very funny game,my favorite mini-game is to pick up the girl groupies.The game has a strategy part because it's necessary to reserve the power-ups for the hardest enemies and it's not avoidable to receive something of damage so administer power-ups is the key of the game IMO.The Mötorhead's graphician has used the colors skillfully! Golden Axe is better game than Motörhead but I prefer to play Golden Axe with MAME nowadays,so my favorite in Amiga in this genre is Mötorhead.

In addition to featuring Lemmy, this game is one of the best scrolling beat'em ups for amiga. It's superb to beat rappers, country singers, karaoke fans , ravers , goths and skinheads with Lemmy. Put a Motörhead cd in stereo and play this game.

Fun and pretty easy rock-em-up game.

I like the music a lot, though there are no actual Motörhead songs in there. The small bonus games are really fun as well - especially the one where you trash a hotel room.

Wow, a side-scrolling beat'em up on Amiga that was actually worth playing to the end. It wasn't even an arcade port, which might explain the overly simplified gameplay. Dynamite Dux is possibly the arcade brawler that comes the closest in terms of gameplay, and even that had a few more features.

Reasonably difficult and fun to play, though a multiplayer mode would have been welcome. The portrayal of Lemmy was really grotesque, and it had some of the cheesiest bonus games ever! I liked the graphic style too, but it was a pity there were no adaptations of actual Motörhead tunes - don't tell me our beloved Paula couldn't do that!

Mindless, but fun game. Graphical styling really added a lot to the gameplay.
