[comp.sys.mac.games] NOVASTAR/reviews

rcross@copper.ucs.indiana.edu (Robert Cross) (09/25/90)

Hi.  Today I received a 6 page micro-catalog from a place called
Novastar Game Co.  The blurb on the front says that they are fairly
new, which I am willing to believe, as their catalog is rather buggy
and looks like one of those "copy-protection" handouts that I have
come to love soooo much.

To the point: they list about 30 Mac games, with prices, and I would
appreciate comments/reviews on any/all of them.  If you happen to have
any info on Novastar (like "stay away!"), that would be nice, too.
Please email and, as always, if there are enough comments, I can post
a summary to the net.

The list is:

Bard's Tale		$30	Starflight		$42
Weaver Baseball		$36	Yeager's Adv. Flight 	$36
Thunder II		$56	Blockout		$30
Hunt for Red October	$24	Indiana Jones: Graphic	$36
Pipe Dream		$20	Fool's Errand		$36
Harrier Strike II	$36	Might & Magic (I or II)	$42
Chessmaster 2100	$36	Pool of Radiance	$36
American Civil War II	$34	Gold of the Americas	$34
Halls of Montezuma	$34	Panzer Battles		$34
Reach for the Stars	$30	Sands of Fire		$36
Warlock			$34	Pirates			$42
Starglider II		$36	<-- Saw this in Soft. Etc. for $19
