Galacta: The Battle for Saturn	Albino Frog Software	1993		MS-DOS
Galdregon's Domain	Pandora Software	1989	You take the role of a barbarian hero, who is unequalled in combat amongst the men of the northlands, however this quest will be, by far, your toughest trial. To play Galdregon's Domain successfully you must not attempt to kill all the creatures, human or otherwise that you meet, although your strength in combat is generally much greater than your opponents you cannot possibly take them all on and win. You must employ stealth and cunning to outwit your opponents. It may be necessary to run from a tribe of Hobgoblins so you can sneak around them to steal a gem. The basic aim of Galdregon's Domain is to recover the five gems of Zator and return the to King Rohan. Each gem is known to be held by one of five powerful creatures. You can be sure that the gem holders will be no push over, so before you attempt to take them on, try to gain some knowledge of their strengths ans weaknesses. The best source of information will be the local inns dotted about the countryside. There are many objects in the lands of Mezron that may aid, or hinder you in your quest, weapons such as the Great Two Handed Sword of the Stone Giants or the Daggers of Quarx. Magical items such as wands and cloaks will give you great power over your enemies and when the going gets tough casting a fireball from a scroll will give a decided edge. Potion bottles can also be found, some of which increase your strength others may contain poison. Other objects include plate metal armour and food.	MS-DOS

Golden Axe	Sega	1991	The unpatched game will indeed run in Hercules graphics mode but will not run on a Hercules card. The game checks for a CGA card when loading and goes crazy when it doesn't find it. A patch will fix it.* [52]* [37]*The game leaves an unused black band on the screen's right edge, this is likely an artifact of very basic platform conversion.For 1-2 players simultaneously (cooperative or versus).Supports EGA, 4 color CGA/MCGA/Tandy, Hercules, 16 color Tandy and VGA GPUs.*This has nearly picture-perfect graphics that are nearly on a par with those of the Genesis, but suffers from some slowdowns at times. Its sound is also limited to blips and chirps from the PC speaker and so music is not an option. The year is either 1990 or 1991 as records vary. [b]Trivia[/b] from Mame.dk Golden Axe page 'The kanji [Japanese character] on the title screen actually reads 'Senpu', meaning 'Fighting Axe'. This is an example of 'gikun', where Japanese artists use the phonetic value of a character to determine the game's name, and not the meaning of the character itself.' [Garrett]	MS-DOS

The game starts with flight training at a base in the United States. Tutorials teach the player to handle the copter; once the controls and flying skills are mastered, there are escalating challenges and hundreds of missions in any one of four regions of the world, including Southeast Asia, Central America, the Middle East, and the Soviet Union and its Warsaw Pact allies in Western Europe.* [91]* [17]* [1]* [52]	MS-DOS

When you are promoted to a sufficient rank you can take along multiple helicopters to accomplish your objectives. The dynamic campaign generates new missions based on multiple maps. Attack, defend, sweep, scout, rescue, drop... Lots of missions to keep you busy. Crew learn and grow in experience as they survive and succeed. A full mission recorder allows you to view EVERY member of your team as they fight or die. Plenty of weapons are available for your side from the latest Hellfire missiles and Sidearm anti-radar missiles to the old fashioned chain gun and gun pods are available for your use. The enemy can be well armed as well, from deadly 2S6 gun/missile combo to old-fashion ZSU-23, even the occasional MiGs.* [22]* [52]*Review for the scenery disk "Philippine Island & Antarctica Scenario".
