Saboteur II: Avenging Angel
DOSAction
Saboteur II: Avenging Angel is a 1987 action-adventure platform game developed and published by Durell Software. It follows Nina, who takes up the mission after the events surrounding the original Saboteur. The game combines side-scrolling exploration, hand-to-hand combat, weapon use, jumping, and stealth-oriented movement across a large facility. Its nonlinear layout and emphasis on finding routes give it a more exploratory character than a straightforward arcade platformer. The DOS version reflects the design priorities of late-1980s home-computer games: limited lives, hostile guards, hazards, and a demanding objective structure. Contemporary players recognized its ambitious scale and atmosphere, while also finding the controls and navigation challenging. It remains notable for its sizeable world and for placing a female protagonist at the center of a computer action game.

How rankings are calculated
The list is generated from active EmuGamers catalog entries. Votes and play activity determine order; browser compatibility is reported separately and does not turn an untested game into a higher-ranked recommendation.
| Order | Signal | How it is used |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Real community votes | Games with at least one recorded vote appear before games with no votes. |
| 2 | Rating confidence | More votes rank first, followed by the rating value. |
| 3 | Play activity | Play count breaks rating ties and orders entries with no votes. |
| 4 | Stable tie-break | Game name keeps otherwise equal results deterministic. |
