Queville – An RPG In The Making

I came across a really great rpg in the making. It is a 2d game but is of a very addictive nature because the game play makes up for it. It’s being made by one person, his name is Joe.

Mario Teaches Typing

It all begins with an annoying PC speaker song. Beep beep beep. It does not make you want to do the Mario. But do not worry, it ends with you being able to type like a tacky, blonde, perfectly manicured secretary. This game may have the Mario brand, but it’s also a very comprehensive typing [...]

Wordquest

A simple concept really. This game generates wordfind puzzles, like you used to do in your mums Woman’s Weekly. There are over 100 different categories of words which you can select from, plus this game also has a special function – you can create your own word lists to use. There is a manual included [...]

Xixit

Another worthy Tetris clone. Well, more like a Beyond Columns clone, because there aren’t funky shapes, only blocks three long.

Klax

This game was really popular in the arcades over here. Fortunately the PC version isn’t a lame imitation, it was developed the same as the arcade version. I’m glad they did make it for Atari, Amiga and DOS because it’s so damn addictive. This game is like tetris with a twist. If you aren’t good [...]

Oil’s Well

The first thing I noticed about this game is the totally funky music. To put a very personal slant on this, I didn’t like the game at all, but I did like the music, and I did like the lovely background and imagery at the top of the screen. Press spacebar to select a difficulty [...]

Chip’s Challenge

Note: This game requires Microsoft Windows. Chip is a mega-nerd. And he wants to join the Bit Busters, which is a club for… nerds. The problem is the club is run by Melinda the Mental Marvel, and there is a rigorous test you must pass to be eligible to join. To take up this much [...]

Stunts

Stunts, possibly a game every oldgamer knows. Its about racing, stunting and designing your own stunt tracks. That is probably the most interesting bit in the game, creating your own tracks and let others race it and laugh about their mistakes. I’ve played this game a million times, together with friends or your brother, or [...]
