Assume command of a five person treasure hunting team that searches possible underwater sites for sunken treasure and artifacts. Train the crew for different roles: divers that search the wreck while trying to stay out of the way of sharks, scientists that conduct research and examine historical artifacts and engineers that take care of the mechanical operation of your ship or submarine. Real-life shipwrecks are present in the game, including the Titanic. Of course, you have a rival for most of the game who is known as 'Evil Eddy' - the richest man in the world - and the goal of the game is to beat Eddy by becoming rich enough to purchase the ultimate submarine: the Sea Rogue.
This game was created by a reader of Your Sinclair, Arno van der Hulst, and sent in to them for inclusion on their Cover Tape.
It appeared with Issue 81, dated September 1992, as part of their Magnificent 7 series of cover mounted cassettes.
The idea of the game is to plonk together three or more blocks of one colour, causing them to disappear from the play area. You can't alter the orientation of the blocks, but by pressing fire you can rotate the colours. Once you've connected enough blocks to reduce the number at the right hand side of the screen to zero, you move on to the next level.
The instructions in the magazine state that choosing the 'Kempston Joystick' option in the menu won't work.
On the planet Tafoi a war broke out: the Swocki ambushed the local Galluks, wiping most of the population. They are led by the Phenocles, an evil god.

To get a picture of the situation, the Alliance decided to bring in an agent first before starting direct military intervention on Tafoi.
In Fate Master the player controls commander Tsin-Fei to gather information and preferably solving the situation on the planet without military strike.

In Dismal Passages you are cast in the role of a youth who lives in a land called 'Drelg Artavia', which is being harrowed by evil Wraiths from the NetherRealm.
In the grisly text introduction, your home is invaded during the night by three wraiths who attack and kill both your parents and your sister, but before they can kill you too, a grey wolf-like character interrupts the assailants and manages to drive them off, while itself is mortally wounded.
Using it's last breath, the wolf asks you to get revenge on the head wraith called 'Vaargerold' / 'Vaalgerald' for the death of himself and your family, and you set out next morning to achieve this.

3Kingdoms is a text-based adventure. In 3K, you "read" the world as you play and interact with it, using thousands of intuitive verb commands. Want to wield that sword you just found? You would enter "wield sword". Want to take a closer look at that desk in the secret room you just found? You would enter "examine desk" and then maybe follow up with "search desk" for a closer look. To help you out in the game, all you need to do is type "help" to give you access to 3K's expansive help files. Beyond that, the same files are available online right here if you ever need them.
In Wrestle Angels, the player has to recruit a number of female wrestlers to participate in a fictional championship. The player can choose different wrestlers for each match. Each wrestler has a variety of special moves. When the match begins, the player controls the actions of the wrestler by selecting those moves in turn-based fashion, trying to predict what move the opponent wrestler will choose.
After all of the player-controlled wrestlers have participated in a match, a decisive match between the strongest player-controlled wrestler and opponent wrestler takes place. The loser of this match removes part of her clothes on the ring. Apart from that, there are no sexual elements in the game, so it cannot be considered adult.

Angst: A Game Of Urban Survival is a single player, shareware adventure game based on the Los Angeles riots of 1992.
The game uses a DOS Window to frame and run the game. The player starts the game and is shown a scene which puts the player on a motorway junction outside the city. They then use the menu bar to select an attitude with which to approach the scene and an item, attitudes range from Conservative to Green while the items range from an uzi to a breath mint.
The player then enables their mouse and clicks on the picture, anywhere that is coloured yellow is a link to something, sometimes the link does not do a great deal, for example in 'The Fun Zone' clicking on another character brings up a message "You refrain from romance because you do not know your partner's antibody status". Other hot spots though open up other scenes and this is how the player progresses through the game.
What is the point of the game? Who knows? The game's documentation is deliberately enigmatic saying only:
