A couple of excellent arcade style games here which
have been seen before but which author Robert de Letter has now bundled
together with a start-up menu. The first game is The Caves of Ctulhi in
which our hero - Cohnan - has to battle his way along many platforms
collecting the gems but avoiding the fires, spikes and other nasty
things that will end his life. This originally appeared in New Atari
User Issue 67 as a type-in and, of course on that disk. The second game
is much more of a strategy game combining several formats of collecting
gems in a given order and pushing items into a chamber. This was
originally on a Futura disk in 1996. Graphics and gameplay on both are
excellent and together they represent a challenging set both for steady
handed games players and those who like to think. If you haven't got the
originals this is the best way to have them.
Boot with Basic.
