An obscure Amiga skiing cartridge; cheap loose, and the boxed copies are where the money is.

Video Soft developed Mogul Maniac and Amiga published it in 1983. Little is documented about the game itself beyond its developer, publisher and release year.

What the press said at the time

Computer Entertainer Vol. 2 No. 6September 1983Graphics ★★½ · Play-Action ★★★½
Electronic Fun with Computers & Games Vol. 2 No. 4February 19842 joysticks

“Despite the simplicity of the graphics, we found MOGUL MANIAC a fun-filled, involving game to play.”

— Computer Entertainer, September 1983

“Graphics are at a bare mini- mum with the emphasis on game play. Now, if you really want to have some fun with the joyboard, forget about Mogul Maniac and pull out those forgotten cartridges that have lost their appeal.”

— JoyStik, December 1983

“The graphics are poor, especially by the standards of perspective set by such VCS games as Pole Position, Enduro and Moonsweeper. … The Joyboard has possibilities but they'll never be realized with games as poor as Mogul Mania.”

— Electronic Fun with Computers & Games, February 1984

“While the game isn't any great shakes on its own, combined with the Joyboard, it becomes the best ski simulation on the market right now.”

— Electronic Games, March 1984

Computer Entertainer rated graphics first and play action second, from four symbols (excellent) to one (poor) — stars in most years, diamonds in 1986–87 — comparing each game only with other games for the same system. Electronic Fun rated games out of four joysticks.

Before you buy

Low risk, with no documented reproductions. Loose carts are inexpensive, but boxed copies cost many times more, so the box and manual carry almost all of a complete copy's value. On a complete copy, ask for photos of every box panel and the manual, and make sure the box contents match what the listing claims.
