┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ *** ** *** │ │ * * * * │ │ >>> CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE SIXTH KIND <<< │ │ * * * * │ │ *** ** *** │ │ │ │ Are when you PLAY games with extraterrestrials. Find out what it's │ │ like with TOMMY'S TOYS, a dazzling new collection of video game and toy │ │ masterpieces for IBM PCs and compatibles at only $3 to $6 EACH, designed │ │ by hard-working aliens from outer space for Earth kids of all ages (from │ │ about 6 or 10 to 250 or so). │ │ │ │ What are Tommy's Toys? │ │ │ │ Tommy's Toys (tm) are animated video game and toy programs, typically │ │ 80K to 128K in size. You play them right from the keyboard (no joystick │ │ needed). Ranging from the brilliantly simple to the astoundingly │ │ complex, they will put the silliness back in your PC like it used to be │ │ before IBM took it out. │ │ │ │ There's never been a product line like this before on Earth. │ └────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ Text Mode Toys To be accessible to all IBM PCs and clones we have developed this toy line within the constraints of the standard 25 x 80 mono and color 256-character text and character-graphics display mode (the mode used by Lotus 1-2-3). This means that they work with virtually any type of video display. Thus, even if your boss was tough-minded enough to supply only a monochrome screen with your office PC, your Tommy's Toys will still work just fine. (Starting in 1989 we will begin offering a new line of Toy Paks that require color graphics adapters to operate.) Toy Disks, Paks, Chests We sell everything from one disk containing up to 3 toys, to the Awesome Astounding Toy Chest stuffed with 105-120 toys. But if you want a nice compromise, try one of our nifty Toy Paks. Toy Paks are like albums of toys. Each Toy Pak consists of 15 toys on 4 to 6 DS/DD 5.25 inch (360KB) diskettes; or 2 to 3 compact 3.5 inch (720KB) diskettes -- more than a megabyte of silliness, chosen to be a balanced whole -- in a good-looking durable plastic storage case, total price $49.95. Complete instructions are included on the diskettes. Why Buy Tommy's Toys? Why wouldn't you want to buy an encyclopedic set of classic toys and games that never break or wear out because they aren't physical, don't cost too much, are completely contained on non copy-protected disks (no thick printed manuals, slide rule contraptions or other alienating subterfuges to limit distribution), and are played right on your PC? So what if your PC was purchased for business use, now learn to play with it too, on the side, and maybe you'll discover like other marvelous earthlings that they soon become a part of your life (unlike earthling software toys, which are luxuries). Will They Become Obsolete? Are you worried that advances in PCs will make these neat toys and games obsolete? Don't worry! IBM compatible PCs aren't going to be thrown in the closet like Commodores, Apples, and Intellevision because the PC is primarily used for business, IBM will always support the text display mode, and, no matter what display you have purchased, the PC driving it is the same. Thus you will be able to enjoy your Tommy's Toys well into the next MILLENNIUM. Need More Convincing? You still aren't motivated to write us a small check to get some of our neat products in the mail? Well go ahead, make our day, keep running your business <ugh> software till you're Big Blue in the face ... you'll break. Here's why: 1. Tommy's Toys are not like earthling toys because they have a unique look, feel, and sense of humor that is just the answer when business gets you down. Look at it this way: all those business software programs saved your time, right? So now that you have all that extra time on your hands, why not give us a chance to waste it? 2. No earthling company can beat our selection of toys for the IBM PC: everything from mission simulators; outer space toys; shoot-em-up games; arcade games; classic card, dice and dominoes games from Hoyle; casino, gambling, and betting games; word, knowledge, skill, and trivia games; to personal chess, checkers, othello, and backgammon sets. It's a world of fun, for the kid in your home or the kid in you. 3. We aliens naturally have hyperintelligence, which we like to show off by providing typical features like: color enhancement, auto/demo modes, elaborate sound effects, mute switches, function key controls, multiple difficulty levels, high score files, pop-up instructions, on-screen clocks, game save/restore, RAM disk support, start-up shows, synthesized speech, screen update booster. Yet our programs are so easy to run, so accessible, that you don't need to know much about computers to have gobs of fun with them -- no wonder they are being used by smart business people not only to conquer years of boredom, but computerphobia and computer illiteracy as well. 4. No earthling force can beat our prices, often a tenth of what others would charge. Smart buyers don't pay $30, $40, or $50 for an earthling commercial software game or toy without checking out our often better version first. As for shareware games, why pay a $10-$20 registration fee when our version probably beats the keyboard off theirs and you own it outright for a price comparable to a shareware copying fee? And our toys are worth owning and treasuring for years to come. Where else can you get a month's worth of fun and games for $14.95? 5. And all the diskettes are warranted to be free of defects or they will be replaced free of charge for 90 days. Where else, O Earthling, are you going to get a deal like this? Compare and then order the toys that are sweeping the IBM PC world. How to Order? Aren't you curious? Come on, earthling, admit it! Here is your invitation straight from outer space: Fill out the order blank. Enclose just $49.95 for each Toy Pak, or mix and match individual toys at $6.00 each; 3 for $14.95. Or send just $2 ($3 foreign) for our 5.25 or 3.5 inch demo disk containing an electronic catalog and a complete working copy of a Tommy's Toy, our choice. (All postage and handling paid in the USA; foreign orders add $1/disk, $5/pak, $15/chest. For mix and match, count 3 toys as 1 disk.) This is likely the only ad you will receive anytime soon so hurry and write for your first close encounters of the sixth kind. Tommy's Toys Box 11261, Denver, CO 80211 USA "Personal Silliness for Your IBM Personal Computer" * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * TOMMY'S TOYS PRODUCT LIST * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * HERE IS the most awesome, astounding list of low-priced games and toys for IBM PCs and compatibles ever seen on Earth.

There's something about this Toy Pak that makes it the one to buy first for a proper initiation to the world of Tommy's Toys. 1M. TOMMY'S TREK.

Let a talking alien from outer space tell your fortune. Just like the gypsy booths in sleazy amusement parks. Forget the newspaper horoscopes and try this. (8 Mhz clock recommended for correct speech synthesis.) A program you'll use every day. 113P. TOMMY'S NUMBERS OF FATE. A Numerology program for fun and amusement. Your Numeroscope while you wait. Analyzes name and birthdate into personality, destiny, soul's urge, goal power numbers; also, pinnacles and challenges, planes, concords, more. 114P. TOMMY'S I CHING. In the East they do it with hexagrams. Ask the I Ching before you make any changes. 115C. TOMMY'S PATIENCE II. Four more neat patience (solitaire) card games: Betsy Ross, Corner Card (4 Seasons), Pyramid, and Sir Tommy. Demo mode included. Buy this for those self-indulgent days when you just want to be alone playing a game with your mind elsewhere. 116CG. TOMMY'S PINOCHLE. Why is this a perennial favorite among card players? Is it the chance to show off mathematical intuition or card memory, the thrill of defeating an adversary with a hand that should have lost? One game of this and they'll never be able to tear you and your PC apart. Two-handed version, you against the computer. Play for highest score or bet on each hand. 117W. TOMMY'S CONNECTING POINT. An exciting game where you guess the missing parts of a free association phrase chain. For 2-4 players, or 1 player against himself. (A.k.a. Chain Reaction.) 118W. TOMMY'S KNOCK-KNOCK JOKE MACHINE. It tells you one, you tell it one. Built-in learning device. Install on office PC and watch it grow. 119C. TOMMY'S EUCHRE. The card game they say the joker was invented for. Once called the national card game of the United States, you can see it being played on the boat in "Chariots of Fire". Easy-to-learn cousin of Bridge. Computer plays 3 hands, you play the fourth. 120W. TOMMY'S WHEEL OF CONFUSION. Cryptogram lovers, this one's for you. Forget about guessing letters in a skeleton phrase -- now try guessing letter substitutions in a cryptogram! This game is hot, get it before they steal it for TV. More salubrious for the noodle than the straight variety. For 2-6 players, or 1 player against himself. (Note: to ease the shock value two levels of play are provided.) --->> HIT PARADE ---------- Having trouble deciding?

Bowing to their incessant demands we beamed down gobs of data from our library computer and created these neat data-intensive toy paks, stuffed to the kilters and waiting to please. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Tommy's Extra Wheel of Misfortune Versions and Wheel of Misfortune Pak: If you haven't gone bonkers over it yet, try it.

(PS: Watch Out! This has power been known to destroy countless galaxies!) * * * Tommy's Extra Trivia Data and Tommy's Trivia Pak: The best two years for sauternes in the 20th century according to Baron de Rothschild? The low point in the earth's whooping crane population, reached in 1941? The inventor of Creamora and Moola Cola? The U.S. state that is home to the town of Knockemstiff? The number of Pueblo Indian pueblos in New Mexico? The origin of secret agent Maxwell Smart's code number 86? Actress Jean Harlow's cause of death? Barbie the doll's last name? The meaning in English of the most famous song in "I Pagliacci"? The birthplace of the current King of Thailand? The oil tycoon who once marketed a hair-growing tonic based on rainwater because of his observation that hair grows on the part of a pig's back where the rain lands? Long before we went into the toy business we aliens from outer space were silently observing your silly planet. Find out what we learned by buying Tommy's Extra Trivia Data, 9 data files, each containing over 1200 different trivia questions, ready to use with Tommy's Trivia (cat. #60). (Note: the first 2 data files come supplied with Tommy's Trivia in Toy Pak IV, which must be purchased first; these are the other 7). Just specify how many you want, $4 each postpaid in U.S. (foreign add $1 each). Or get it all with Tommy's Trivia Pak, containing the latest version of Tommy's Trivia plus all 9 trivia data files, that's over 11,000 (eleven thousand) neat trivia questions on all subjects, with an extraterrestrial slant on things. It's too awesome to describe! Almost 1 million bytes of trivia, kept up to date by busy aliens ... not even the sage Mr. Spock ever claimed to know this much stuff. Also includes a special version which you can customize with your own trivia questions. Just imagine how many pounds of Trivial Pursuit flash cards you would have to buy to equal the sheer size of this data base -- and our trivia leaves theirs in the dust anyway. All for only $19.95 postpaid in U.S.A. (foreign add $5). This is not only neat, it is nourishing. * * * Tommy's Hidden-Word Puzzle Pak: Don't dell, but we got a heckuva lot of hidden-word search puzzles packed onto a whole Toy Pak's worth of diskettes (500 puzzle titles). If you enjoy getting lost in a wilderness of words, and finding your way out, this pak will amuse for many yahrens. And all in brilliant color on your IBM PC, not with cruddy old pencil and paper! Includes a special version which you can customize with your own hidden-word puzzle lists. Do a puzzle a day and keep your brain from going to fat; make up special puzzles for your office mates (with your own little private jokes). Only $19.95 postpaid in U.S.A. (foreign add $5). * * * Tommy's Crossword Puzzle Pak: If you've discovered a love affair with Tommy's Crosswords, you're not alone: some Earthlings play with this program to the exclusion of all others for months at a time! Now how about the latest version of the program along with a whole pak of 200 neat crossword puzzles on all subjects, designed by extraterrestrial beings with hyperintelligence? All for only $19.95 in U.S.A. (foreign add $5). Note: delivery by 6/1/89. * * * Tommy's Magnum 45 Paks (with apologies to CBS): Packing 3 Toy Paks together for $144.95 (postpaid in U.S.A.; foreign add $15) packs quite a kick! What a great gift for somebody with an IBM PC or compatible! You have your choice of any 3 Toy Paks. Bonus: your choice of the Wheel of Misfortune, Crosswords, Trivia, or Hidden-Word Puzzle Pak. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * TOMMY'S SHAREWARE PAK * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Although our software toys beat the socks off earthling shareware, we have yielded to customer requests and sifted through scores of earthling shareware catalogs to find the nuggets that complement our line of extraterrestrial toy products. The result is Tommy's Shareware Pak, a collection of 100+ shareware game and toy programs by earthlings, arranged and selected by aliens from outer space (trust us, we know what we are doing). A total of twenty 5.25 inch, or ten 3.5 inch diskettes, all in archived form using a famous shareware ARC program (also provided). While these programs were designed by mere earthlings, some are a lot of fun considering the source (ha ha -- just kidding). Here is a partial table of contents: o 8 Pinball Machine Programs o Skill games: Mahjongg, Dominoes, Reversi, Risk, Connect-the-Dots, Monopoly (2 versions), Stock Market, Megalopoly, Checkers (CGA), Chess (3 versions), Prince (economics game) o Arcade: Tank, Spacewar, Beast, Bugs, Digdug, Kong, Packgal, Packman, Pango, Pitfall, ABM, Astro, Encounter, Novatron, Rockets, Space Invaders, Stargate, Zaxxon, Striker, Baby, Brick, F-16, Flightmare, Motoman, Quimbee, Chomp, Labbits, Airtrax, Sub Chase, 3-Demon, Ptrooper, Qubert, Sopwith, Ball, Asteroids (EGA), Tapper o Cards & Gambling: Poker, Bandit, Blackjack, Canasta, Bridge (2 versions), Hearts, Lowball, Roulette, Poker Squares, Pontoon o Sports: Sailing in the Bermuda Triangle, PC-Golf, Armchair Quarterback, Teed-Off o Word: Namegram, Trivia (Bonzoware), Scrabble (2 versions), Time Charts, Wordplay o Text Adventure: Soviet, Kingdom, Beyond the Titanic, Evets, Hack, Empire o New Age: Oracle (I Ching and Tarot) All of this for a copying and handling charge of $49.95 postpaid in U.S.A., foreign add $5. That's about 50 cents a game, and with one purchase you can get earthling toys out of your blood. Warning: You have to use this earthling stuff at your own risk, some of the programs require a CGA or EGA and color screen, and many of the authors want registration or upgrade fees. * * * ***************************************************************************** >>>>>>>>>> Announcement! Awesome! Astounding! Don't Miss This! <<<<<<<<<<<<<< ***************************************************************************** WHY NOT buy the whole toy store? The most exciting product ever offered in PC history is waiting to be shipped to you by aliens from outer space! **close encounters** ------------------------------- TOMMY'S TEXT MODE TOY CHEST I ------------------------------- **of the sixth kind** Tommy's Awesome Astounding Text Mode Toy Chest I consists of ONE HUNDRED AND FIVE (105) text mode Tommy's Toys (Toy Paks I-VII) stuffed onto over THIRTY 5.25 inch (360KB) diskettes, or FIFTEEN 3.5 inch (720KB) diskettes -- OVER TEN MILLION BYTES IN ALL -- and packaged in a handsome diskette storage chest along with assorted doodads (cards, dice, dominoes), all for only $324.95 (or add Toy Pak VIII for Deluxe Toy Chest, $360.00) (postpaid in U.S.A.; foreign add $35 for Toy Chest, $40 for Deluxe Toy Chest). When's the last time you went out and bought a software package with even five diskettes in it? Now try and imagine a whole chest bulging with a hundred-odd programs, all for just a few hundred earth dollars, probably the best buy on Earth at this primitive stage of its galactic evolution. But what will it do for you? Plenty! By the time you have mastered all the controls, displays, rules, strategies, puzzles, trivia questions, and forbidden secrets from outer space in these neat toys you will be ready for your Bachelors in Galactic Gameology with a Minor in Toyology Silly Cum Laude. (From there you might go on to a professional degree in Toyonics, a research career in Sillyoncology, or a service-oriented field such as Silly- atrics. Why one day Tommy might even come and recruit you to be a Toy Elf in our secret alien workshops located in Denver, Colorado, where you can live the higher life of pure cerebral silliness after attaining to hyperintelligence and a knowledge of touch typing.) What a bargain, say what? FREE BONUSES! ------------- Tommy's Card Pak, Wheel of Misfortune Pak, Crosswords Pak, Trivia Pak, Hidden-Word Puzzle Pak, and Shareware Pak all included FREE. PLUS, a free copy of "According to Hoyle" (Signet paperback ed. by Richard Frey) so you can bone up on the rules and strategies for over 200 games. About FIFTY 5.25 inch diskettes, or TWENTY-FIVE 3.5 inch diskettes in all! Who else offers you such an awesome amount of challenging silliness anywhere on earth? WHY BUY TOMMY'S TOY CHEST? -------------------------- Because this is a material world and you are a material earthling; life is short and there are only so many things you can do for the first time. Like your first date, your first car. Do you remember where you were when Kennedy was shot? How about when the first earthling human landed on the moon (what was that moving in the shadows just beyond camera range)? What can we say, here's another first that you will never forget: where you were when you received your first Tommy's Toy Chest and had your first close encounters of the sixth kind. And you don't have to make any personal visits to Devil's Tower to do it, either, because we're as near as your mailbox. YOU THINK THAT $324.95 IS TOO MUCH FOR A MERE ENTERTAINMENT PRODUCT? -------------------------------------------------------------------- Listen, how much did you spend for that VCR movie last month, the one you already saw a dozen times? Or that visit to your in-laws that was so much fun you couldn't wait to leave? For the price of ten Christmas trees these toys offer something that movies, records, and tapes don't: they exercise your cerebral cortex, both hemispheres, like aerobics or squash, while giving you the emotional excitement of pure entertainment -- and we're not talking about dancing around the record machine. You see, they not only give but they take, they demand something of you, and after you give it, you are the better for it. So don't feel guilty for enjoying your Tommy's Toys. YOU'RE AFRAID TO BUY THEM FOR YOUR OFFICE PC? --------------------------------------------- So what if our products make your expensive, no-nonsense, business computer into a great big toy? Think of them as the alien antidote to international business machines -- take one or two after any business headache. Not being copy-protected, you can put them on your hard disk at work, ready to play when you get bored or stymied, perhaps perking you back up so your work productivity actually improves -- so how can your boss get mad when he catches you with them? (Yes, all the products have mute switches.) But if you got it, why not flaunt it? Picture your big (5.25 inch), or cute and compact (3.5 inch) -- but in any case beautiful and mysterious -- Tommy's Toy Chest sitting next to your office or home PC, with our silly logo staring back at all who pass, beckoning to a higher, finer world of pure extraterrestrial cerebral silliness. Aren't you valuable enough in your office to have this symbol of higher consciousness proudly displayed, or will you have to quit and find a job where your rights aren't denied? As for value, let the number 1-0-5 sink in for a minute: imagine the pleasure of trying two new toys a week for an entire year and still having one left! Or take two years to go through them once, then they're all at your service, on command, forever. How many of the other guy's (earthling) video games can you get for the same price? Nobody else can offer you a product like this. Still don't believe we're from outer space? YOU WANT TO GET ON AN ALIEN'S GOOD SIDE? ---------------------------------------- Some earthlings spend zigabucks on membership fees, travel expenses, and other purchases to attempt to get an alien from outer space to be their friend. But for just a few hundred greenbacks it is all waiting for you in one place, a chance to become a code blue-nine customer of Tommy's Toys. In an age when man is threatening to blow up his planet, where will you be without a genuine Tommy's Toy Chest in your fallout shelter? ADDITIONAL ENTICEMENTS ---------------------- Since you probably haven't bought a toy store before, from aliens or otherwise, and perhaps need a little helping hand, we also include the following enticements to make you feel special: 1. Free diskette update for one year! That means that you can give us your feedback all year and then get all the improved versions sent to you for free (yes, we like you to write us as often as you please, we always read your letters through and give them to Tommy, who treasures them forever). We aliens are eager to please. You have your choice of 2 update options: 1) incremental updates as they become available, 2) complete update of all the toys on the first anniversary of purchase. Your final Toy Chest will then contain a little bit of you in them too. 2. Free 2-year membership to the Doctor Who Fan Club of America! (We are not affiliated with them, but their secret warehouse in Denver is located not too far from Tommy's crash site and Tommy likes his shows on PBS affili- ates). Includes neat membership card, thermal badge, subscription to Whovian Times. Also, a list of other neat fan clubs and magazines Tommy thinks you might want to check out after you have bought a Tommy's Toy Chest. * * * * * Christmas Club: You want to sample before you go whole hog and order a Pak or Chest? Be our guest! Yes, you can buy a few toys out of a Toy Pak or Toy Chest and then deduct the cost you paid when ordering the rest (use discount/credit line on order form). Only purchases made since the same date of the previous year count, however. Don't wait till Christmas to have fun! Note: free numbered Toy Paks received for submitting bug reports may also be deducted from the cost of a Magnum Pak or Toy Chest. * * * * * A Final Word from Tommy My Earthling Friends, I hope you will avail yourself of this cosmic opportunity to play with an alien from outer space by buying some of my neat low-priced products. We want to be your one and only galactic PC toy company, so here is my personal guarantee. If you buy any of my toys and don't like them for whatever reason, you don't have to buy any more.
