🕹️ Antheads: It Came from the Desert II (1990) – Commodore Amiga Cinematic Sci-Fi Adventure 🌐 Full game info, manual & download: 👉 https://www.cheekycommodoregamer.co.u... Released in 1990 by Cinemaware, Antheads: It Came from the Desert II is a direct sequel to the cult classic It Came from the Desert, pushing the story five years into a darker, more unsettling future. The once-quiet town of Lizard Breath is again under threat—this time from townsfolk mutating into terrifying ant-headed creatures. Players step into the role of Brick Nash, now a war veteran turned truck driver, drawn back into the mystery as the town unravels. The game retains Cinemaware’s signature blend of real-time exploration, dialogue-driven encounters, and action sequences, all unfolding under a strict 15-day countdown that keeps the pressure firmly on. While it reuses much of the original game’s structure and assets, Antheads introduces new story beats, locations, and a heavier emphasis on investigation. The tone is noticeably darker, with paranoia and body-horror elements replacing some of the B-movie camp of its predecessor. Visually, the game maintains Cinemaware’s cinematic presentation, with detailed character portraits and moody scenes that help sell the narrative. Music by Jim Simmons and Gregory Haggard reinforces the tension, supporting the game’s sense of urgency and creeping dread. Though often viewed as an expansion rather than a full sequel, Antheads remains a fascinating continuation of the series, valued by fans for its storytelling ambition and its place within Cinemaware’s distinctive catalogue. 💬 Did you prefer the original’s tone, or enjoy the darker direction Antheads took? ▶️ RELATED PLAYLISTS Cinemaware:    • Cinemaware – Cinematic Action & Strategy C...   Adventure Games:    • Adventure Games – Classic Point & Click, T...   It Came from the Desert:    • IT CAME FROM THE DESERT – Commodore Amiga ...   💙 SUPPORT & CONNECT Patreon:   / cheekycommodoregamer   Join:    / @cheekycommodoregamer   Twitter:   / cheekyc64gamer   Facebook:   / cheekycommodoregamer   Discord:   / discord   Website: https://www.cheekycommodoregamer.co.uk #antheads #itcamefromthedesertii #amiga #cinemaware #retrogaming #adventuregames #classicamiga #gaminghistory #cheekycommodoregamer
