1994 was the swan song for the Commodore Amiga, as Commodore itself went bankrupt that year, but there were nonetheless a few last good Amiga-original games released:

• Beneath a Steel Sky
• Cannon Fodder 2
• Dreamweb
• Ishar III: The Seven Gates of Infinity
• Liberation: Captive II

Other platforms:

• The Elder Scrolls: Arena
• Dark Sun 2: Wake of the Ravager
• Jagged Alliance
• Master of Magic
• Might & Magic: World of Xeen (M&M 4/5)
• Sid Meier's Colonization
• System Shock
• Warcraft
• Wing Commander III
• X-Com: UFO Defense
• Shadowrun (Megadrive/Genesis)
• Final Fantasy VI (Super Famicom/NES)
• King's Field (Playstation)

You forgot TIE Fighter.

System Shock, TES Arena, Heretic, XCOM, and Master of Magic are the big ones. All of them still play well today; Arena's controls are a bit awkward but very simple when you take ten minutes to master them. System Shock's controls are a bit shit but the Enhanced Edition completely remedies that.

I like Warcraft 1, it's one of the only RTS games that isn't a major fucking bore to play these days. It's very simple and basic, like a flash game almost, but that simplicity makes it a pretty straightforward experience, and the relatively low squad size and map size means that the tedious "spam a ton of units then trudge around the fog of war looking for the enemy base" core gameplay of RTS games is less bloated than in later games.

I bet you can't.
It will feature at the very least 20 games, more that double of 1994 list.

It looks like a fine year, if one likes point&click adventure games.

Battle Isle II is still EXTREMELY playable (I replayed it recently, and 1994).
I agree with you with UFO Defense. It aged. If anything, Terror from the Deep is better.

Heretic & System Shock may deserve an honorary mention, not very playable anymore

Missing from your list : Tie Fighter, Warcraft 1 is 1994. Both very playable still, particularly Warcraft 1

"First game in tex murphy series that is even remotely worth playing today."

Terror from the Deep is better

I can't bring myself to play TFTD. There's just something inherently wrong with underwater X-Com.
