Play Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure Amiga Online

Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure came out on the Amiga in 1990, developed by Capstone Software. It was one of those licensed games from the era that tried to capture the spirit of the movie, a time when platformers and action-adventure titles were common sights on home computers. The game puts you right into the shoes of the two airheaded heroes, tasked with the monumental job of not flunking history.

You control both Bill and Ted, switching between them to explore different time periods screen by screen. The main goal is to gather famous historical personalities by finding specific items they need, like a microphone for Ludwig van Beethoven or a football for Abraham Lincoln. You navigate through themed levels, from ancient Greece to the wild west, avoiding enemies and solving simple environmental puzzles. The pacing can feel a bit slow, and the controls are sometimes uncooperative, but there's a genuine charm in the absurdity of the premise. It feels like a silly, slightly janky road trip through time with your best friend.
