Maupiti Island is already being sold over at DotEmu. I would like to see GOG pick it up and bundle it with its sister title and prequel Mortevielle Manor.
Thexder was my first Amiga game. Fond memories, but may not have enough substance on its own for a release here. The suggestion of bundling it with the later title or other release would be wisely followed in that case.
The Magic Candle series, as others have pointed out, is ancient but venerable. It could make a good release as a set.
Lurking Horror would be welcome, along with the rest of the Infocom line. (My favourite was Suspended, which I never beat as it was incredibly brutal.) And yes, Prisoner of Ice is a good enough game to have here too.
Mega Lo Mania was very popular on the Amiga. It is only slightly related to Populous, the gameplay is more of a high-speed RTS where you hurry along the evolution of your people ahead of your enemies so that you can overwhelm them with superior technology. Though in some cases sheer numbers can still carry the day. I could see this doing well here, along with the long requested Powermonger.
Magic Pockets was alright, some decent notions in it. It plays largely like Gods turned into a cutesy platformer, but Gods remains much superior.
Lastly, I would love to have the Sherlock Holmes games here as well, as I've not played them and would quite like to.
Thanks again for overseeing this incredible list!
