FallThru
1990
The beautiful vistas of farmlands, forests, mountains and deserts that greet you upon your arrival on Faland does little to calm your nerves about how you arrived at this strange land. Considering how dangerous it is with all the demons, monsters, wild animals and renegades running around you know you have only one thing you must do. Get back home. The farm settlement of Or'gn is where your journey home begins. You and up to three players take turns trying to reach home while scoring as many points as possible. Since the journey is dangerous you may die but you will have multiple chances to continue your quest at a cost of demerit points. You must examine many items, talk to the inhabitants and solve side-quests. Arm yourself well and do battle with the enemies lying in wait. Earn ralls, the currency of choice around these parts, by finding treasure or trading commodities with shopkeepers. Raise your status high enough and you just may find your way back home.

Dismal Passages
1992
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.Bones: The Game of the Haunted Mansion
1991
Bones: The Game of the Haunted Mansion is a member of the pseudo-roguelike Wizard's Castle family. It is one of the oldest games of this family, originating in 1981 on DEC mainframes. The story is quite conservative: As in the other Wizard's Castle games, your task is to descend into a dungeon to find the all-powerful Globe of some mighty Warlock on the deepest level. The gameplay is a hybrid of boardgame-like exploration and roguelike dungeon crawl, the whole presented as in "windowed" interactive fiction game, while the setting is a mix of fantasy, horror and sci-fi elements, playing in a haunted mansion filled with dust, bones, undead skeletons, RAM chips needed for auto-mapping, Uzis and Laser guns, etc. The only graphics is the BGI title screen; the rest of the game plays in text mode and reminds late DOS applications with windows.Sfinx

Dead of Night
Dead of Night is a 2D platformer set in the world of Ancient Greek mythology. The game was developed for the Enix International Entertainment Contest in the Fall of 1996. The released version of Dead of Night – which is only a demo – only contains the first quest given by Zeus to Heropheles: to slay the Hydra and retrieve the map of the Underworld. The continuation of the story is hinted at but was apparently never done, otherwise the game is feature-complete.The Castle
1991
The Castle
1991
This game can be called an ancestor of the Worms game series. The goal is very simple: you need to destroy the enemy's fortress with the help of cannonballs. However, behind the simplicity, a far more intricate process is hidden. The Castle allows the player to customize the game settings to diversify each duel: you can change the curvature of the landscape and the height at which the fortresses are relative to each other; you can change the degree of influence of the wind on the shots; you can even choose the magnitude of the gravitational force and the number of hits after which the fortress is considered defeated.Shortline Railroad

Shortline Railroad
1992
Shortline is a real-time railroad management game that eschews complicated financial aspects (as in A-Train) and all realistic factors in favor of the pure joy of creating a miniature railroad. You goal is to assure an uninterrupted collision-free passage of different trains to target points, and your success both in traffic dispatch and railroad management and construction determines your score.Angst: A Game of Urban Survival
1992
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: "Object of Game : Up tNinja Gaiden

Corridor 8: Galactic Wars
Corridor 8: Galactic Wars was the planned sequel to Corridor 7, a first-person shooter by Capstone Software. The sequel used the Build engine and was supposed to be released in early 1997. However, Capstone and its parent company Intracorp Entertainment went bankrupt in 1996. One of the former developers published an early prototype including the source code and a design document of this game. According to the document, Corridor 8 was planned to have 6 episodes with 10 maps each. The episodes were broken up into two sides: the human "Allied" and the alien "Axis", three episodes for each side. This game was also supposed to feature 18 characters plus 6 aliens redone from Corridor 7, 20 weapons to choose from and a secret weapon, and multi-player network gaming for up to 8 players.Road & Car: Test Drive III - The Passion: Add-On Disk 1
