After barely escaping from hostile aliens, Conrad's bike crashes on an unknown planet.
Conrad finds himself in the jungle, and from that moment on his quest for survival and his lost identity begins.
Flashback: The Quest for Identity incorporates elements of platforming, shooting, and problem-solving.
The game can be described as a "cinematic platformer" (commonly referred to as Prince of Persia style), following a design philosophy that was also manifested in Delphine Software's previous work, Another World .
Compared to that game, Flashback focuses more on platforming and exploration of large levels.
While a large bulk of the gameplay is dedicated to running, jumping, and shooting enemies, there is also a considerable exploration element in the game, as well as some puzzle-solving.
The player navigates Conrad through platform structures, performing various moves.
It is possible to simply jump or do a longer run-and-jump, run, climb, hang off ledges, and pick up objects lying on the ground.
To defend himself, Conrad can shoot enemies with his gun and also use various objects (such as stones) to harm or distract them.
Crouching and rolling are possible (and often essential) moves that can be executed during combat.
The gun has unlimited ammunition; however, shields that Conrad uses to protect himself from attacks are depleted when he is hit and can be recharged at special stations.
Though most environments in the game are hostile, there are a few locations that are devoid of enemies.
The player is usually required to talk to characters, gather information, and complete tasks in an adventure-like fashion in these areas.
Most of the versions utilize cutscenes with polygonal vector graphics.
The CD versions replace those with pre-rendered 3D animations.
The Sega CD version also features voice-overs.
About Commodore Amiga
The Commodore Amiga (1985) was ahead of its time technically — multitasking, custom graphics and sound chips — and built a passionate following in Europe in particular, where it rivaled and often outsold contemporary consoles. Amiga collecting today is a niche but dedicated hobby: original boxed software on floppy disk is comparatively scarce since floppies degrade, making well-preserved complete copies genuinely valuable to the right collector.
Gamevaro tracks Flashback: The Quest for Identity for Commodore Amiga with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Flashback: The Quest for Identity to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This AMIGA release dates back to 1992.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
