Shadow of The Comet 1993 Adventure
Shadow of the Comet is one of the best horror games ever produced, with a gripping storyline based on Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos, good puzzles, and a wonderful atmosphere and characters despite some interface quirks. As journalist who arrived in a small town to photograph comet Halley's passing, you soon find that the event signifies a more sinister plan. Some pixel-hunting and time limits are annoying, but the game is excellent overall. ...
Carrier Strike: South Pacific 1992 Strategy
Carrier Strike simulates naval-air battles in the South Pacific during WWII. Carrier Strike can be used to recreate historical battles or random-historical battles (battles that could have happened at a particular time). The Campaign Game allows you to complete one battle and jump immediately into a new battle. Ships sunk or badly damaged in one battle will be unavailable for the next battle. The Campaign Game allows one battle per month from May 1942 to June 1944. In Carrier Strike you issue movement orders to friendly task forces (TF's) and direct the Flight Operations on your carriers. Flight operations consist...
GateWorld 1993 Arcade action
GateWorld is a decent platformer that bears more than a passing resemblance to Apogee's better-known Commander Keen games. You play Captain Buzz Klondike, intrepid space adventurer. Your task is to make your way through ruined cities and jungles and hordes of aliens, on your way to the capital city of GateWorld where more perils await. You will meet the dreaded G.O.R.G. machine in Part 1, "The Seed Ship," which is the only episode available in the shareware version. The registered version (which is for download below) feature two more episodes with many more enemies. Gameplay is identical to a typical platformer:...
Safecracker 1997 Puzzle
I started playing SafeCracker with much anticipation, since I am a fan of many other Dreamcatcher games. And I was not disappointed. Dreamcatcher seems to have focused on a genre that has been overlooked for some time -- the "adventure puzzle" game. In most good adventure games -- like Myst, Riven, Zork Nemesis, etc. -- the player can easily become caught up in the game; this is certainly true of SafeCracker. The first-person 3D graphics are terrific, the 360-degree motion lends a sense of reality, the "loop-track" background sounds provide a sense of eeriness as well as urgency, and you...
Hero X 2002 Role playing
Hero X beckons gamers to don the costume of a customizable superhero and fight for isometric, click-driven justice through a less-than-serious plot. Though its subject matter might seem to hold special allure for the stereotypically geeky PC gamer, Hero X offers boring, point-and-click action with little motivation of story or character. Ostensibly the game is about superheroes, but there is nothing here that has anything to do with real comic books. Far beyond the obvious lack of a big-name Marvel or DC license, there's no feeling of "good vs. evil," or "prevailing against great odds," or any sort of "superheroism"...
Wayne's World 1993 Adventure
Wayne's World is an adventure game based on the movie with the same name. The game itself is a classic point and click adventure, and should not be confused with the platform game based on the movie. You play both Wayne and Garth, and you can switch between them at any time. The plot is simple; In an attempt to save their tv-show, Wayne and Garth decide to hold a pizza-thon (a charity show with a pizza-theme) in order to raise money. In order to be able to hold the pizza-thon Wayne and Garth must embark on several quests to collect...
Megafortress 1991 Simulation
Megafortress is a flight simulation based on the premise of Dale Brown's Flight of the Old Dog novel. The player is in command of a crew flying a super modified and experimental B-52 bomber, outfitted with the latest weapons and stealth technology. (In the novel, it was more advanced than the B-1 Excalibur, the Strategic Air Command's most advanced bomber). The game campaign mostly takes place in Iraq, but there is 1 mission that takes the bomber to the old Soviet Union like in the novel. ...
Shadowlands 1992 Role playing
Yet another novel-concepts-but-poorly-implemented games, Shadowlands purports to be revolutionary in ways its title implies: through the use of shadows that everything realistically casts indoors according to lighting positions. Unfortunately, this creative idea also makes the game very frustrating to play, as items and levers are often obscured by shadows to make out. Cumbersome interface and arcade-ish combats do little to rescue the game from oblivion. ...
ArmA II 2009 Strategy
Gamers are invited to embark on a branching, player-driven solo campaign, or join a 140 square mile game world for large online PvP battles in ArmA II, the third release in Bohemia Interactive Studio's modern warfare series. Players control Sgt. Patrick Miles and his five-man team of Marines as they use more than 150 vehicles, wield over 70 different weapons, and manage their important resources throughout the fictional Soviet state of Chernarus. The action was designed to be intense and realistic, with adaptive AI, bullet ballistics and deflection, dynamic weather effects, and terrain based on real-world geographical data. The main...
Ultima 9: Ascension 1999 Role playing
Every game is categorized into a genre; Be it action, adventure or arcade, there is a myriad of titles for each. However, when it comes to RPGs, the category is synonymous with very few games. For any one who has ever delved into the dungeons of a PC RPG, the name Ultima will rarely ever be unknown. In Ultima VIII, there was a sub-plot pertaining to Lithos' sealing of the Zealan's within the Lost Vale. ORIGIN had scheduled an add-on which was eventually cancelled. Since that chapter of the story of Ultima was closed to me, the release of Ultima IX:...
