This edutainment game for the Commodore 64 required players to spell specific words in order to progress through the titular Wizard's cave. Successfully spelling words gives the player name-brand adhesive bandages useful for treating snake bites and scorpion stings. Failing to spell words correctly causes the wizard to drain energy from your flashlight. The game ends when you run out of bandages, run out of light, or if you can successfully collect all four crystals and escape the cave.
The game impressively relied on the Commodore 64's ability to produce recorded voice clips. Whether it did so successfully is a matter of debate.

Whoever ends the game with the most cash and assets is declared the winner!

One to four players can compete in Match or Tournament Play, with individual handicaps. Wind, temperature and ground condition can be entered or randomly determined by the computer. When playing, the left half of the screen shows the situation from the player's point of view, and the right half shows a map of the course. The player can select between different clubs. For each shot, you can individually select the direction, the angle of attack, and the spin. The strength of the shot must be carefully timed.

You can ride in both directions, fire at enemies with your handgun, and jump over obstacles with the horse. To avoid being shot, you can also duck in the saddle.
Maggotmania is a single screen shooter inspired by the arcade game Centipede where you control a blue creature at the bottom of the screen trying to destroy a large maggot that appears at the top of the screen over various levels. You can move left or right, and forwards a short distance as well as move backwards and you keep firing upwards when you fire your weapon. The maggot moves across the screen and when it hits a flower or the edge of the screen then it moves down one place and moves the opposite way. When you hit the maggot, it splits into two parts and keeps moving downwards towards you leaving behind a flower. Flowers stop your bullets but after a few shots it disappears and if you hit a flower then you lose one of three lives. Other creatures make an appearance like a spider and snail and these can be shot for bonus points. If the maggot reaches the bottom of the screen then it starts to move upwards and when destroyed you move on to the next level.
