Jack the Ripper

If you’re talking about adventures you usually think about a character walking around with a easy to use point and click interface and solving all manner weird and fantastic problems. Jack the Ripper is a very serious game though, you are the detective who is charged with investigating a murder apparently committed by Jack the […]

UFO: enemy unknown

UFO: enemy unknown aka X-com was quite a sleeper hit when it was released, it’s a tactical combat game but there is a lot more to it than that. You’ll have a certain budget with which you can build a base from which you can launch aircraft that can intercept UFO’s. There are plenty of […]

Indiana Jones in the lost kingdom

Indiana Jones in the lost kingdom is an entirely new story of which I don’t know the origin but it goes like this: Indy is once again looking for a treasure that will make him rich and famous, this time the remnants of a lost civilization said to be somewhere in the jungle. After going […]

Ultimate golf

There are plenty of golf games available on the market and they can be put in two categories, the arcade games and the simulators.

You can create your own boxer with various stats and enter the championship ladder at rock bottom […]

One man and his droid

In the early days of videogames games were mostly limited to pure actions games or puzzles games simply because the machines didn’t have the power to do much of anything else. One man and his droid is a puzzle game in which you control a droid who acts as a herding dog, the sheep you […]

Once upon a forest

Lots of games are made from movies and also movies made from games, neither often turn out very well in the translation though. Once upon a forest was first made as a movie but I never saw it so I can’t really judge it. The game is about a number of forest creatures who are […]

Yolanda

Yolanda is a fastpaced, even frantic platformer with a difficulty level only the extremely hardcore could face. You are cast as the daughter of Hercules who’s beauty has made the goddess Hera envious of her. Hera has placed a curse on Yolanda so that any man who falls in love with her will die within […]

Prince of persia

After finishing Prince of Persia warrior within a few days ago I thought it would be fun to add the original game to the site. In the game you are wrongfully jailed by the grand vizir Jaffer (why are they always called that?) and you have to escape the dungeon which is shaped like a […]
