Blacksmiths. Shepards. Clerics. Each dedicated to the absolute control of secret knowledge. Another such Guild was the Weavers. Over the centuries, their craft transcended the limits of physical cloth, until they wove the very fabric of reality itself. Now, a strange power has swept the Weavers into oblicion, leaving behind one Weaver boy to unravel the mystery. Help young Bobbin rescue his Guild... and you might save the universe from an unspeakable catastrophe.***

[37]***2009-07-08 on Steam, by LucasArts (lang: eng) - 256 color enhanced version (runs through some odd emulator that enforces 2xSAI or similar filter, too)***Fantasy adventure by LucasArts. This is one of their earlier adventure titles, and it's fairly short, but it's a fun story. You play Bobbin Threadbare, apprentice Weaver, a young man caught in the inevitable pull of destiny. The graphics use only 16-colors but are very well drawn (they're the kind that sold systems back then). The interface is simple, and the puzzles utilize the interesting concept of magic through a musical sequence. Certain actions cause magical notes to resonate through Bobbin's staff, and if he can memorize the sequence he can use it to invoke the action in another object. Some of the more ingenious puzzles also involve reversing a sequence to cause the opposite reaction. I think there should have been more throwaway animations for using the wrong sequence instead of just one generic 'wrong sequence' animation, but even without that the game is worthwhile, if short. The setting reminds me of Ursula K. LeGuin's Earthsea trilogy for some reason. Of special note is the fine musical score, adapted from Tschaikovsky's ballet 'Swan Lake.'

Join underappreciated hero Guybrush Threepwood on his quest to become the most fearsome pirate in the Caribbean! The game features charming, clever puzzles and hilarious writing.***Great game. 5 star. If you could download it with music and all that would be fantastic.

[37]***The time is Autumn 1942. Allied shipping losses mount as the German wolfpacks stalk the convoy routes and sink an unprecedented amount of Allied tonnage. However, the Allied forces have discovered SONAR and RADAR, the technology for waging the most devastating kind of anti-submarine warfare.

The odds are even, the Convoy Escort Commander in a destroyer matching wits against the Wolfpack Commander in a U-Boat, only one will enjoy a hero's welcome the other will rest forever in an icy grave.

Wolfpack is a precise simulation of a confrontation between a German submarine wolfpack and an Allied shipping convoy, with attention to detail and interactivity exceeding that of current implementations, the simulation allows the player to take the part of either a Wolfpack Commander or that of the Convoy Escort Commander. Wolfpack offers the realism of a full scale, real time, strategic encounter.

Features include:
- Unique construction set
- Several different scenarios
- Accurate armaments and instruments
- Superb graphics
- One or two player option
- Day/Night missions

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.***

Players earn currency by kill count to buy these gidgemits and gazmoes. The arms dealer has limited supply and uses a persistent economy (both optional). Players can sell anything back to the dealer, possibly to make a profit. Players earn interest on their capitol based the economy.

The environment can be annoying and hostile to all players. Gravity, wind, lightning strikes, earthquakes, landslides, even meteorites.

Two plain text files in the game's directory contain taunts and dying words. Users can translate or edit these files as they like. The economy and most other options can also be tweaked in this way.

Players take turns moving, activating defenses, tweaking vehicle options, and/or selecting a weapon/attack. Amongst the multitude of possibilities. Weapons are launched at a chosen speed and angle like most artillery games. Strategy is usually simple in artillery games. But all the additional gameplay elements here can interact in many, many ways so that strategy is a major element. Players can direct their vehicles to drive over or fall on top of others, to cause damage to both. The idea being the player causes more damage to their opponent than themselves, but this requires just the right terrain and conditions to favor the attacker. Damage can be caused to the pixel terrain for this and other purposes. Players can attempt to bury each other or themselves. Terrain protects but also limits attack options and even some defense options. Among defense options are several types of shields. Some are a force field that causes weapons to detonate. Others are 'soft' and absorb a percentage of damage. Another type is reflective so that a weapon bounces elsewhere, hopefully into another player or even back at the shooter. All these have pros, cons, and Achilles heals. The better a shield is, the worse it is for the defender if an opponent manages to fire [I] from inside [/I]. Another example, in the right conditions, a skillful shot can be fired so it skips across the bouncy shields of several opponents, depleting energy from all of them. Also, if the wind is right, a skilful bounced shot falls right back on the same opponent multiple times until the opponent's energy is entirely depleted. Everything except regular angle and speed attacks takes energy, especially defenses. Moving and some special weapons also take energy.

An alternative mode allows each player to merely plan their turn. When all players are finished, their orders are executed simultaneously.

Yet another play mode (in v1.5) isn't turn based. Up to 10 players play simultaneously. This is where Gravis Gamepad compatibility really helps. Any extra players beyond 4, for Gravis Gamepad, or 2 for PC joysticks, must share the keyboard.

To begin, the number and type of players are chosen. Options are set. Any of the extra options can be disabled so that even and ordinary artillery game with only one type of tank and infiweapon are used. The number of rounds is set. Each round ends when one player or none is left alive. Currency earned is then used to buy (and/or sell) weapons, defenses, and accessories. A new round begins until last round ends. Players are then shown their rank.

Later versions were written in Borland C++ and Turbo Assembler (author implied in documentation that free tools were used previously). Versions before 1.0 were freeware and lacked most of the features of the shareware version. Shareware versions had many featured removed that were available in the registered versions. Many revisions followed, up until the final 1.5. v1.5 was mostly nagware, having all features of the registered version except for the tri-turret tank. The registered version does come with a deluxe bound manual edition of the HTML documentation. The network/modem play was planned but never implemented.

There are way to many things to list here.***Originally freeware, turned shareware on 1991-06-20.

I thought WOW! The graphics were breathtaking for its time because "Comanche" introduced voxel-space instead of your standard (mostly non-textured at that time) vector graphics. Flying through canyons with full speed was an unbelievable satisfying feeling. The game is more an action game instead of a real simulation. Simulation fans might be dissappointed because its too simple, but I think it suited the game to be rather simple.

You play Mike Dawson, an ad company manager who, in pursuit of his goal in life to become a writer, purchases a solitary mansion in a small town called Woodland Hills. Although the low cost and hush-hush transactions when purchasing the house do raise your suspicion, the solitary environment and sheer beauty of the house crush common sense and you decide to buy the house. That's when trouble begin. Upon reaching the house, you suddenly feel tired. You find a bed and fall asleep...

... and wake up from a terrible dream, only to find out that your life has just become a worse nightmare: an unknown source has implanted a seed of darkness in your mind, and you only have three days to find a way to stop it.***French version.

The wicked Lord Sauron persists in his quest to capture the one true ring of power. But now the Evil Wizard Saruman, with his insatiable lust for power, is after it as well.

You, the player, control a party of benevolent characters in this captivating, role-playing adventure as they battle orcs, trolls, wargs, ghosts, and oliphaunts. You'll travel through the dark and mysterious ghastly marsh of the eternal spirits and, ultimately, come face to face with the mysterious two towers.

All the color and imagery of Middle-earth comes to life with state-of-the-art, 256 color VGA graphics, a new and enhanced interface, full musical score, digitized speech, and colorful animations. The Two Towers is a stunning sequel that will involve you deeply in the Tolkien experience.***Sauron is incarnate in Middle-Earth in physical form even if he does not make a visible appearance in this game.[spoiler=and;Maiar]Gandolf and Radagast are Maiar (low ranking angels, choral singers) incarnated in the humble form of men[/spoiler]***
