Chaos Overlords 1996 Strategy
Chaos Overlords is an excellent board-game style game with a novel premise: lead your gang to victory in a post-apocalyptic city. The game is structured like a card game, with different cards representing your gang members, buildings, and weapons you can equip. The turn-based gameplay is fun, with many commands you can issue per turn (research, control, hide, etc.) and you have to watch your back for police as well as other gangs. Research plays an important part in the game, as a weak gang equipped with powerful weapons can easily beat a stronger one that is armed with only...

The real-time action in Outlive...
Sydney 2000 2000 Sports
As usual, all the big competitions are indorsed by a thematic video game. It's a nice way to boost publicity, and turn even more profit on the event. First to dip through the finish line, and grab the opportunity, was the British based duo: Attention To Detail and EIDOS Interactive (handling the publishing). They've managed to acquire the International Olympic Committee License, and reserve exclusive rights to Sydney Olympics related video games distribution. I don't know if the deal includes a several future Olympic competitions, but I'm pretty sure that for now, EIDOS will be the publishing house for the...
Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes 2 (a.k.a. Case of Rose Tattoo) 1996 Adventure
Arguably the best games starring the world's most famous fictional detective, Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes 1 and 2 are similar: while the plot, writing, graphics, are all first-rate, most puzzles-- especially the just-click-and-watch lab sequences in Serrated Scalpel-- "lead" you to their solutions without requiring much thought. Fortunately the sequel Rose Tattoo boasts better puzzles and graphics, and a much longer plot. Holmes' fans will enjoy untangling both the Jack-the-Ripper-lookalike mystery, and the Diogenes Club bombing in which Holme's brother, Mycroft, is mortally wounded. Despite banal puzzles that hardly merits the attention of the world's foremost detective, the games'...
Reach for The Stars 1988 Strategy
Reach for the Stars is a turn-based adventure/combat that has its roots in the science fiction world of galactic exploration, colonization and conquest. The number of turns in the game can be set as high as 150 by the player but the game doesn't necessarily have to end when that limit is reached. Some games have been known to go upwards of 300 or more turns when the competition is fairly even. Four players (empires) participate in each game of Reach for the Stars with the computer filling in for human opponents when needed. Gameplay revolves around seeking out and...
