Pirates of The Barbary Coast 1987 Strategy
Pirates of the Barbary Coast is an ambitious but flawed strategy/action game set in the Barbary Coast region, during the high piracy era of the 17th century. One of the (few) best things about the game is the plot, which casts you as a captain whose daughter has been kidnapped by Bloodthroat (how fitting) the Pirate. He demands a ransom of 50,000 gold, and gives you 30 days before he sells her to the harems of the coast. Your job, of course, is to raise that much money and rescue your daughter. Gameplay is primitive, and not all that much fun....
Dig Dug 1983 Arcade action
Here's yet another real oldie. Oddly enough this was always one of my least favorite games (no matter what system I played it on) and my opinion still stands. I mean, the game is quite ridiculous. You're a little guy named Dug and you need to dig (or are you Dig who used to dug). You have a water pump in your hand to defend yourself against the monsters. You use it by getting close to the monsters and rapidly hitting the fire button which inflates them until they finally explode. And just what kind of monsters are we talking...
Tactical Ops: Assault on Terror 2002 Arcade action
Ah, the eternal conflict between terrorist and anti-terrorist. Will we ever see the end of that? Hell no! It's always fun to get together with your mates and spray each other in a shower of bullets coming from your beloved AK-47 or M4... We find ourselves in times when multiplayer FPS titles a la Counter-Strike are simply appearing out of nowhere. As we're swept away by the tide of these games, we realize that none of them managed to surpass that special gameplay feeling which makes CS so poplar. Does Tactical Ops do that? Of course, it doesn't. But, it does...
Outbound 1999 Arcade action
The second and one of the last releases from Freeform Interactive, a promising freeware developing arm of Ingava.com, one of the best freeware sites that folded in mid-2001. Rocket Download has the skinny on this fun Command & Conquer-style shooter: "Outbound is a fabulous freeware game that features full mechanized combat. This overhead shoot-em 'up is sort of an arcade version of MechWarrior. You'll take your beefed-up Armored Mobile Vehicle (AMV) to eight different planets, each with unique environments and missions. As soon as you land, you'll engage swarms of enemy bots and fulfill your objectives. In some scenarios you'll have...
Panza Kick Boxing 1990 Sports
A surprisingly well done conversion from the Amiga version means that Panza Kick Boxing looks as good also is the exact same game as seen on the Amiga. It is one of the few games focusing on the less known kick boxing sport and it does very well in this. You can build your character in the game both during the matches but also in the gym where you can also customize your boxer. During a boxing match there are several different moves to choose from and the animation of the characters are extremely well done as well. The sounds are...
Are You Afraid of the Dark: The Tale of Orpheo's Curse 1994 Adventure
"Are You Afraid of the Dark" is based on the Nickelodeon television series about a club of kids called The Midnight Society. The members of this club entertain each other with ghost stories around a campfire. The premise of this game is that you, the game player, are attempting to gain entrance into the society by telling a ghost story of your own. It's a very clever idea, and it works very well. This is one of the first games I've played that I would wholeheartedly recommend to older kids. The story you're "telling" in this case is about Alex and Terri,...
Putt-Putt Joins the Parade 1992 Educational
Putt-Putt Joins the Parade continues the adventures of a fun loving and talking little purple car. This time his journey involves entering the local Cartown Pet Parade by solving puzzles to gain entrance to the show. Recommended for the four to eight year old category, children can guide Putt-Putt by using a recognizable point-and-click interface. The cursor flashes when an animation or problem solving related item can be executed and also when a screen can be exited. Players can assist Putt-Putt by helping him earn money by mowing lawns and delivering groceries, using a magnet to remove nails from a road,...
Volleyball Simulator 1988 Sports
Old but good volleyball game by Time Warp. There are not that many other computer volleyball games I remember, except the great Beach Volley by OCEAN for the Amiga and Kings of the Beach by Electronic Arts, both being beach volley games. Blocky graphics/player animations make Volleyball Simulator a fairly poor simulation of the sport, although it does offer a good range of realistic options, including different ball controls (lob, spike, etc.) and play strategies. The game even includes a tactics editor-- something quite rare for its time. Overall, probably not the best volleyball game ever made (well, if there...
Cruel World 1993 Arcade action
Cruel World is a below-average Prince of Persia clone from Makh-Shevet, a little-known Israeli developer who later made Master of Dimensions and Armed and Dangerous adventure games. As a harmless citizen who is one day thrown into the dungeon for no reason, your goal is to escape with your life intact in true Prince of Persia fashion. The game is extremely similar to Jordan Mechner's classic - from the 2D/isometric layout, to red potion flasks that represent your health and your enemy's health. You will fight skeleton soldiers, make impossible leaps across chasms, negotiate tricky traps, and generally pull off...
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory 2005 Arcade action
It is time to step back into the shadows. Information warfare has evolved into the most dangerous threat to global stability. In the third release in the Splinter Cell series, Chaos Theory, the year is 2008 and you are once again Sam Fisher Third Echelon's top agent. To achieve your missions you will have to kill at close-range, attack with your knife, shoot with your prototype Land Warrior rifle, and use my personal favorite, the inverted neck break. As an added bonus cooperative mode is back from Splinter Cell 2: Pandora Tomorrow where you and a friend can take on...
