February is over, and with that comes the latest batch of games from the Collection Chamber. Pick of the bunch is RedJack: Revenge of the Brethren (1998 CyberFlix, Inc), a piratey point-and-click adventure. We also have a unique take on Cluedo with the puzzle board game Case Closed (1999 David Sakadelis). Head to some strange lands and learn about magical beast in The Great Myths and Legends: Monsters & Mythical Creatures (1995 E.M.M.E.) before kicking them in the face with the first-person action-RPG ShadowCaster (1993 Origin Systems). To round off the quintet, we have an archaic version of Rocket League with the vehicular sports game Wild Wheels (1991 Red Rat Software & Ocean Software Ltd).
We'll soon be heading into the month of March where movies will be the theme of the year. The Oscars - my World Cup or Super Bowl - is in a couple of days so I'll be celebrating it with some movie adaptations. They're yet to be decided, but what is locked is my predictions for who will win the Golden Statuette. I'm usually quite good at this, but never really post any proof so I'm gonna do it here;
We'll see how well I did in a couple of days. As for the games, check them out after the jump...

Interesting releases as always Biffman!
ReplyDeleteI'm interested in Shadowcaster on my end, being a big fan of Raven Software in their early days and having never tried it.
Interesting as well that it was published by Origins but developed by Raven. Quite the match!
Thank you!
Woooow.
ReplyDeleteEverything is great.
Also ShadowCaster :) Long Live The King Richard G.
Thakn You Biffman 101 :D

Hi, Biffman! Is Hundred Swords on your radar? The Dreamcast version was never released in English, as far as I know, but the PC version in English is out there somewhere...
ReplyDeleteAh, I see you had 7/8 right in your prediction for the Top 8 Above The Line categories, exactly the same as me. We made the exact same mistake in Best Actress, thinking they'd pick the veteran actress Demi Moore instead of the young ingenue Mikey Madison. Academy history should have told us differently, plus the fact that BAFTA led the way, as they often do in the acting categories.
ReplyDeleteIs there any way you could package up Space Crusade, either for Amiga or DOS, please? I've been itching to play it again!
