- One of the best games for the STe I know of would be Captive. I
- don't have an STe, but a friend who does says the stereo sound effects
- add a lot to the game. It'll definately keep you going for a long time,
- if you decide to try to play it to the end, but it starts to get pretty
- same-like after about 20 levels. Each 10th level is basically a complete
- round, so you can finish at anytime you feel like. Knightmare is also
- good, as of course, is Dungeon Master and Chaos Strikes Back,
- appearantly available now as a set for cheap.
- One of the newest games available that is getting a lot of raves
- from the few game players left on the ST is Amberstar, which is a good
- copy of all the best parts of the Ultima games, with a lot of tricky
- puzzles thrown in. It's also the start of a trilogy, so once you finish
- the first, there'll be more to come.
- On another note, the latest ST Gamers Digest reports Mindscape has
- dropped the ST. Has anyone in Britain heard what this means to the
- expected release of Captive II, as this was due out on Mindscape?
