I used to be a avid Mac games player and now I have some games which I have finished and no longer play. Here is a list of the games which have complete documentation if not their original boxes: I am asking about $15-$20 each and will take the best offer I am sent. E-mail your offers. Alternate Reality: RPG, Explore a city, nice music, could have been really nice if programmers had made more effort smoothing the edges. Made by Datasoft. Breach. You head an elite team of hi-tech commandos. I had a lot of fun with this an it requires strategy as well as foresight. Some roleplaying. Published by Omnitrend. Chuck Yeager's Flight Trainer. The title just about sums it up. Basically your average flight simulator. Published by ECA. Gauntlet. Like the arcade game you run around as an elf, valkyrie, warrior or wizard in a dungeon and try to kill monsters and get their gold. Published by Mindscape. Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The classic infocom game from the book of the same name. Text adventure. Jet. Another flight simulator for the mac. More fun than CYFT for me because it was more simplified. Uses windows for special views. Kind of nice and easy to learn (for a flight simulator). Published by subLOGIC. Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge LIzards. An adult game based on Soft-Porn adventure. Fun to play but relatively easy. IBM-like graphics but it was a real riot to play with friends anyway. Published by Sierra On-Line. Might and Magic. RPG. Great Sound, good graphics and one of the most complex role-playing experiences. I had a good time and the game lasted me several months. Published by New World software. Moebius. RPG. Another fun game that was ported over from lesser systems. The graphics are average but the games is lots of fun. You play a Chinese warrior ridding the land of menaces moving from plane to plane until the final confrontation. Great combat system! Published by Origins Systems. NME. A little-known arcade game that has you battling mechanical monsters to win. Complex with interesting sounds. This is a crippled review copy with only 5 levels so I will let it go for $5 or maybe I'll just throw it in with some other game. Published by ARTIFIC software. Reach for the Stars. The very nicely implemented strategy and tactics game wherein you attempt to conquer the universe. I don't like war-games as a rule (thus I am selling the game) but I have to admit I was impressed with the "look and feel" and playability of this game. Published by SSG. Shadowgate. The classic graphics adventure where you are a prince who enters the Shadowgate keep to foil the evil warlock from unleashing terrible menaces. Great graphics and sound and very difficult to finish without help. Published by ICOM simulations/Mindscape. Twilight's Ransom. Text adventure with some graphics. Your girlfriend has been kidnapped by a Liberty City crimelord and you have to deliver "it" to him before she dies. Only you don't know what "it" is. Suspenseful and hard to finish. A little counter-intuitive at times. Published by Paragon Software. Warlock. Action game in the same vein as Dark Castle although not quite up there. Nice sounds and intricate graphics. VERY challenging. Kind of like Ghosts 'n Goblins arcade game. Published by Three-Sixty. Make me an offer! ******************************************************************** * Christopher Lye '90 * USENET: clye@phoenix.princeton.edu * * A17 Little Hall * CIS: 73407, 3140 * * Princeton University * TEL: (609) 734-6038 * * Princeton ,NJ 08544 * * ******************************************************************** * "I wish every virus writer in the world had one pair of balls * * ... and that I had my hands around them." * ********************************************************************

Hi, I still have some games for sale so I am reposting. I am still asking for between $15 and $20 for these plus $2-3 shipping. E-mail me ASAP since I will be losing this account in about a week. The games that are for sale are: Reach for the Stars: Science-fiction strategy game. Shadowgate: adventure game with great graphics where you try to detroy the evil warlock. Warlock: Arcade game in which you move across a horizontally scrolling screen defeating monsters with your firebolts and picking up goodies on the way. Jet: fighter simulation for the Mac, must use original disk. Pipe Dream: A really fun action/arcade game reminiscent of tetris where you have to drop pipes to continue the flow of flooz. Quarterstaff: Role-playing game from the late INFOCOM that plays like a Dungeons and Dragon adventure with text and graphics. MAKE ME AN OFFER! ******************************************************************** * Christopher Lye '90 * USENET: clye@phoenix.princeton.edu * * A17 Little Hall * CIS: 73407, 3140 * * Princeton University * TEL: (609) 734-6038 * * Princeton ,NJ 08544 * * ******************************************************************** * "I wish every virus writer in the world had one pair of balls * * ... and that I had my hands around them." * ********************************************************************
