You're not limited to 2 directions for scrolling -- you can scroll in EIGHT directions. Also, as you scroll from side to side, the perspective changes. In GREEN you help Planters to prevent the pavers from turning farms into parking lots. Pavers include mall developers, real estate agents, clear-cut loggers and other exploiters. There are several different maps, of varying difficulty. You have the ability to plant hedges, add walls, and to destroy pavement. GREEN is a strategy game, similar in concept to Populous and SimCity. FENCE is a Tetris-like strategy game in which you build fences and mazes to prevent your sheep from escaping. You can change the landscape by planting hedges or stonewalls and by destroying unneeded fences. There are several maps, of varying difficulty. How high can you build? TOWERS is similar to Tetris, since you need to place blocks of varying size. That's where the similarity ends -- you need logic and planning, rather than quick reflexes in TOWERS. You build one level of the tower at a time, trying to fit the blocks in the tightest pattern. Each level becomes the base for the next level. ANTIC -- AntiC is a cross between Othello and Life. The object is to change all the squares in the pattern to the same color using the fewest number of transformations. Anti-Chaos networks are formed from squares connected to each other by directional lines. Each square is one of 3 colors and sends its color to the following squares in the network. If only one color comes into a square, it takes that color. If two colors come in, they cancel and the square assumes the third color. Each time you change a square, all the colors are recalculated and redrawn. Ages 8 and up. Mouse/ EGA WEBS is a deceptively simple solitaire game requiring both strategy and cunning. You claim nodes on a web while trying to limit the nodes claimed to your computer opponent. Automatic display of potential moves, a variety of webs and difficulties give hours of challenge. NEW IN V1.1: Web maker feature included. Registered users are eligible to enter a cash prize contest. Ages 8 and up. Requires mouse/EGA. PEG: No one really knows when PEG solitaire was invented. Some stories trace it to prisoners during the French Revolution, but published descriptions date at least 100 years earlier. Most likely the game is even older. PEG presents variations on the classic peg solitaire with multiple starting positions, and varying endgames. One of the pleasures of playing the game on your computer is that you can quickly set up the board to try different strategies. Ages 8 to 88. Requires mouse/EGA. ATC -- An air traffic controller game that's perfect for a few minutes or hours of fun. Easy to learn, but difficult to master. The game tracks best scores at each of 20 levels of difficulty. Ages 10 and up. (Supports monochrome or color) EGA ECOMASTER -- A diverting ecology game in which you bid for and trade animals based on their abilities to thrive in different environments. No previous biological experience is assumed. Intriguing graphics of all the animals, plus photographic images from around the world. For 1 or more players. For ages 10 and up. Requires EGA and mouse. FICTIONARY -- The game of fantastic and farfetched definitions. Each round one player chooses a word that no other player knows. You can choose your own word or pick one from the large selection included with the game. Then each other player makes up their own definition for the word. Everyone votes for what they think is the correct definition. Points are scored for guessing the proper one, or misleading other players. Special rules allow play by 2 or even 1 player. Ages 12 and up. QUILT is a diverting graphics program or nonresident screen saver, using half square quilting patterns. You can create specific patterns or set the program on sequential mode for continuously changing patterns. Change widths, patterns, rotate or flip the designs, or colors for "billions and billions" of combinations. Full EGA and VGA support, with configurable color palettes chosen from 64 possible colors. EGA/VGA req. Ages 8 to 88. CAPBUF is a memory resident (TSR) program that lets you capture any text screen and save it for later processing or printing. It is quite useful for programs that do not otherwise provide means of printing their results. Use it for intermediate results of games, or collecting copies of messages while on a bulletin board. (mono or graphics) UDECIDE helps you make decisions such as which software or hardware to purchase; ratings surveys; which project to pursue; ranking; or selecting colleges, movies, stocks, or wines. You enter a list of elements by which you will evaluate the contenders, optionally giving each a weight. Then you enter the possible options, and assign a value to each element. You can then sort to obtain an ordered list of the best options. Or you can perform what-if analyses by changing elements or weights. (mono or graphics) CHRONOS How old was Paul Revere when he rode into history? How many years separated Michelangelo and Cortez? With CHRONOS, you sort and select by individual people and events, or nations and occupations, to develop new insights and trace patterns across different eras and cultures. You can modify or expand any of the datasets. CHRONOS is used by history and art students, teachers, genealogists, writers and others interested in exploring historical relations or cultural events. CHRONOS includes a special gamemaker function and which randomly creates and presents questions of various kinds from datasets (for 1 or more players) CHRONOS comes with several datasets, which you can modify.
