The Risk adaptation (pure PD) works very well under MF. And it's the best PD game to come along in the last two months, too boot. >>Anyone know when Beyond Dark Castle will be out, and if it will run on a >>Mac2? > >Rumor has it that it'll show at Macworld.

I wouldn't be terribly surprised or >disappointed if I'm wrong. Charlie Jackson said, back in November, that Beyond Dark Castle wouldn't run on a Mac II (the demo he showed the dBUG group was on a Mac+). While they were shooting for a Mac Expo release, things were not certain as of last week whether they were going to make it; plus, they are putting more emphasis on their gray-shade software release and SuperPaint 2.0, both of which will be demoed at the Expo. Of course, by the time you read this, you should already know whether it's out at Expo or not... GARY HART: Living proof that your really *can* fuck your brains out.
