Games Disk 2
December 1988
This disk is a collection of some popular Amiga games.
1739 sectors used, 19 sectors free, 98% full.
Contents:
YachtC3 : The game of "Yachtzee", for 1 to 4 players. Roll the five die
up to 3 times per turn, trying for each type of result on the
scoreboard ("Yachtzee" is just 5 of a kind). Go for maximum
points, or with 2 or more players fill the whole scoreboard
first AND get maximum points to win.
Egyptian Run: "It seems the pyramids have come alive and are out to take
over the world! You are the world's only hope! Can you get
past the pyramid missiles with bumps to contend with and get
in range to fire your guided missile at the control pyramid?
But even then your missile is damaged and hard to control."
In this game, "you" are a jeep running across the sands,
avoiding obstacles. The farther you get, the faster you go,
thus the harder it gets. It sure isn't as easy as it looks!
Joystick in port 2.
Escape from : "Escape from an underworld cave system on Jupiter (sorry, yes,
Jovi (EFJ) even though it is a gas giant), transporting a valuable bottle
of beer, with limited fuel available". Successive levels of
caves get harder and harder. This German import uses real
inertia and gravity effects, two-way hi-res scrolling, and
digital sound. Watch out for inertia! You can end up going a
lot faster than you intend!
Othello : Standard game of Othello, instructions included. Briefly, it
is a game of skill where each move can have effects that last
throughout the entire game. Two players (human, or computer)
take turns placing pieces on the board, attempting to "trap"
one or more rows, columns, or diagonals, of the opponent's
pieces between theirs. This entitles the player to flip those
pieces over, changing them to their colour. Each turn must
flip at least one of the opponent's pieces. Whoever has the
most pieces when the board is full, or when neither player can
move, is the winner.
The computer can help by showing all possible moves, or the
best possible move. By selecting two "non-human" players and
clicking a choice from the "Guru vs. Guru" menu, the computer
can play against itself step-by-step or free running, at
various levels of difficulty. Great for learning how to play
the game!
Chess : A non-graphics version, but plays a pretty good game.
MasterMind : The classic strategic "guessing" game. The computer chooses a
set of coloured marbles which you try to match in 10 turns or
less. The only clues you get are a "white pin" for each
correctly coloured marble you choose, and a "black pin" for
each correctly coloured marble in the correct position. The
more you play the better you'll become!
