Save the kingdom of Hamnlin from the Mad Mage Inshanis, by setting out to recover Artifacts hidden throughout the vast lands of Kairn. Recruit new adventurers from a variety of professions and level them up as you gain experience, slay monsters and explore the dungeons. The Mad Mage is in possession of all the Artifacts save three. These you must recover, then journey to the Mad Mage’s island and use them to defeat him. The shareware version only includes the first dungeon; a registered copy adds the other 3.Wipeout

Wipeout
1989
In this trivia game, a screen of sixteen possible answers (to a question such as "Which of these inventions were discovered by accident?") are shown - eleven are correct, the first awarding $10, then $20, etc. up to $110 for the last answer. The other five answers are incorrect, and hitting a "Wipeout" loses all your money from the whole game (ouch). The two contestants with the most money at the end of round 1 go to play in the Wipeout Auction. From 12 options, players bid on how many correct answers they can pick out (up to the maximum of 8). Hitting a wipeout allows your opponent to steal the frame if they can find just one correct answer. Winning two frames gets you through to the final.Road Runner

20th Century Frog
1988
In 20th Century Frog, you play as a frog hopping around the screen to eat bugs and avoid deadly obstacles. Every alphanumeric key of the keyboard is used to control the movement of the frog, where the key's position relative to the space bar determines the direction and distance of the jump. Each hop consumes points, and each bug you eat replenishes them. If your points dip too far into the negative, the frog will perish. Eating ladybugs grants a "gimmick", a power up that can be used to counter a particular obstacle.California Games
