Android Nim	Adventure International	1978	I wrote the original Android Nim program for the Radio Shack TRS-80 computer in 1978. It was well accepted since few graphics programs were done on that machine owing to the low resolution and lack of color. The feature that most people commented about was the android animation which included head and arm movement and eye blinking. People also liked the bad attitude the computer had when it lost. The program was written for my 7th and 8th grade students to help them learn about the binary system. Nim can be analyzed mathematically using base two. With this knowledge, a player can always win. This characteristic also makes this game a good one to put on a computer since the computer can be taught how to always win.*The well known game of NIM will never be the same. In this version there are three robots (ANDROIDS) whose task it is to eliminate those ANDROIDS that you or the computer have decided to "remove". This is done with a lot of "talking" and moving about. But, watch out! The computer gets nasty if you win.[media=youtube]awYrj1RhLxU[/media]**This game uses a programming technique whereby a BASIC program writes machine code that then overwrites the BASIC program in memory and executes the machine code. This has many advantages, including using all available memory on the system. If the application in fact fills up all available memory, users will find it very difficult to modify the program (cheating will be very difficult). The program itself cannot be copied out of memory and saved for illegal resale or sharing. It cannot be decompiled. And the original BASIC program makes little sense unless your are the original developer, it is effectively an encrypted source code.	TRS-80

Angband	author	1992	2.4.frog-knows is the rather unusual version number given to the very first public release of Angband outside of the University of Warwick, and was released on 11th April 1993 for UNIX with a near-simultaneous release of the PC port (for DOS). A purely bugfixing release for the PC followed very shortly afterwards, on 20th April - PCAngband 1.1.	Unix
Angband	author	1992	Angband is a single-player, text-based, dungeon simulation derived from the game Moria, which was in turn based on Rogue. It is often described as a "roguelike" game because the look and feel of the game is still quite similar to Rogue (though there are now graphical tiles available if you dislike ASCII gaming). Angband has been in more or less continuous development since the early 1990s. The ultimate goal of the game is to develop a character strong enough to defeat Morgoth, who resides on dungeon level 100. Upon doing so, you will receive the exalted status of "winner" and your character may retire. To achieve this you will need to explore numerous dungeon levels, defeat many foes and sift through a great deal of treasure. Angband is a reference to Morgoth's "prison of iron" in the world of Middle-Earth, created by J.R.R. Tolkein.***JnuxBand turns Angband into a 'PC booter' game. Simple write to a floopy, USB, or disk img file and play it on any computer or emulator that can boot it.	Linux

Battle Chess	Data East (Beam Software)	1990	Did someone tell you chess is a civilized game played by civilized people? Forget it. Chess is war - a ruthless, cutthroat battle where one warrior lives to fight again and the other is left on the battlefield. With BATTLE CHESS you don't just imagine the battles, you experience them! You'll hear the clank of armor, as you watch dramatic, 3-dimensional animations of courageous heroes fight to protect their king. BATTLE CHESS is the most incredible chess game you've ever seen - where empires can be won - or lost!	NES
Battle Chess	Electronic Arts (Interplay)	1988	It took 2,000 years for someone to make chess better. "Battle Chess is the next step beyond all existing chess programs." -Video Games & Computer Entertainment The most challenging game on earth comes to life in Battle Chess. An entire medieval world at war is reflected on the checkered field. Everyone who's ever had a knight take a pawn has seen that capture as more than one piece replacing another on the board. In players' minds, the bold knight, resplendent in his armor of silver or ebon, sallies forth and slays the foul footsoldier. Combat, mortal combat, is the heart and soul of chess, but this aspect of it can only live in the mind's eye ... until now! Lots of computer chess games capture the basics of chess. Only Battle Chess brings chess to life by combining a magnificent chess logic system with colorful, humorous, and dramatic three-dimensional animations. "Battle Chess must rank as the most entertaining chess game around, and the funniest." -The Games Machine *** Advanced, state-of-the-art 3D animation and digitized sound effects * Over 4 megabytes of animation * Winner of the Best Graphics Achievement In A Non-Graphics Product award from the Software Publishers Association * Play against the computer or your friends, or let the computer play against itself * Modem capability for long distance games (not available on the C-64) * 10 levels of play challenge even the most sophisticated player * Opening library of 30,000 moves (not available on the Apple or C-64) * A wonderful way to teach children to play chess"Every chess player will want a copy of this program. Highly recommended." -Computer Gaming World* [7]* [134]* [2]* [62]* [79]* [21]* [76]* [33]* [82]* [83]* [85]CDTV version. [22] [22]* [1]*** [52]	Amiga
