Little Computer People

Commodore 64 - 1985
Also available on: Amiga - Amstrad CPC - Apple II - Atari ST - PC-88 - ZX Spectrum

Ah... what memories this brings back ;) No doubt one of my most favorite Commodore 64 games ever, Little Computer People is the reason I kept my computer on for days (to my parents' chagrin) just to see what the little-guy-inside-the-computer is doing :) This unique simulation of LCP (Little Computer Person) allows you to make LCP do various chores (fill the water tank, feed the dog, etc.) as well as give external inputs (deliver magazines, etc.) to see how the LCP and his dog pet reacts.

The possibilities are almost endless.. you can even play card games with your LCP, as well as upset him in various ways. Great fun, and truly timeless. Too bad the PC version was never made. But thanks to C64 emulators you can now see what the fuss is all about :)

I miss playing this! I had the Atari version a long time ago. I downloaded the Atari version here and will attempt to play it on the emulator as you don't seem to have a PC version.

Did Anyone ever find out what's behind the door on the top level? Is he's building some sort of nuclear divice or my guess is he has someone or something tied up in there it's not that i don't trust the little guy but it says little computer people on the box.. SO..
where's the rest of them? Mmm tell me that.you. guessed it...

On "THE C64" this version is also not running... I have tried several settings, but it starts in a black screen and it was all.......

One of the greatest 'games' ever... I too kept the little C64SX running for weeks just to keep him alive... never ceased to be fun, and it influenced my thinking like nothing else. At the time I didn't have physics to back me up or have a strong opinion, but it made me wonder about free will and consciousness... how many games, movies or books do that?

On a Mac, VICE Commodore 64 emulator worked (it is very slow to load!). Could not get Amiga or Amstaad versions to work.
