Amiga Action Issue 58 (June 1994) is built around a big-ticket reviews lineup and a strong CD32 presence, headlined by the long-awaited first look at Ambermoon (positioned as a potential “RPG of the decade”). Alongside that flagship review, the issue stacks up major coverage of Heimdall 2, Armour-Geddon 2, James Pond 3 (A1200) and more, while still finding room for a standout non-review feature: a profile of fantasy/sci-fi artist Danny Flynn (the man behind striking game-box/book-cover art) and a gritty multi-month piracy investigation. The two coverdisks lean into instant-play value with demos of Puggsy and Rugby League Coach, and the back half rounds out with walkthrough-style help (Blueprints/Player’s Guides), budget re-reviews, and the usual reader/community pages.
Highlights
- Coverdisks: Puggsy demo (Disk 1) + Rugby League Coach playable demo (Disk 2).

- Feature: “Who’s Danny Flynn?”—an art/industry profile focusing on his box-cover/book-cover work (and his connection to Amiga game packaging).
- Feature: Piracy investigation by Brad Burton—an on-the-ground look at how swapping/warez culture worked and why it hurt developers.
- Blueprints (hint/strategy pages): includes games like Sim City 2000, Valhalla, Pinkie, and Impossible Mission 2025.
