The player takes control of a magical human fighter who has the ability to transform himself into a flying dragon. As the fighter, the player can run, crouch, jump, and attack with his sword as he would in most side-scrolling action games. Underneath his life gauge is a "metamorphosis gauge" that will gradually be filled as the player destroys his enemies. When the metamorphosis gauge begins to flash, the player can transform into the dragon by pressing up and A button after jumping. As a dragon, the player will hover in the air while the screen scrolls automatically to the right, similarly to a side-scrolling shoot-'em-up game. The dragon's main attack is his fire breath.

While in dragon, the player's metamorphosis gauge will gradually be drained out. The player will transform back to a fighter if the metamorphosis gauge empties out completely or when the player rapidly taps the A

The graphics and sound are both pretty mediocre, but the actual game, though on the difficult side, is surprisingly addictive.
The New Worlds is a data disk add-on to the strategy game Utopia: The Creation of a Nation. It supplies ten new worlds to work through, each of which has a new alien race to encounter. These include the Sarturians, The Rako-Gorda, and a tribe of humans who had previously colonised. The planets themselves also vary in terms of areas to develop.
Empire's take on the hack'n'slash arcade-adventure games on the Amiga had a lot going for it: nice colorful graphics with plenty of parallax scrolling coupled with an equally nice music and decent sound effects.
You play William Tell, a hero in his homeland; a symbol of freedom looking for justice. To the Emperor though he is a dangerous spark that must be extinguished. To the resistance he is a figurehead, a powerful ally, if only they can persuade him to join with them. Aim well, the hopes of many are on your shoulders.
It knows where you're hiding!
In the beginning...
the was Capone, the revolutionary game that brought a new generation to computer game play by using the Actionware Phaser Gun. Then came P.O.W., which added strategy to the break neck action. Now Creature invades your computer, and continuing in the tradition of excellence, takes it where no game has gone before.
Your mission...
Distress calls received from deep space report hostile alien life forms, and you are the only space security captain within range. Two ships and a lunar base have been attacked and only you can save them from complete destruction.
As you make your journey towards them, you wonder what you're up against. Are you prepared to battle vicious beastoids, alien attack-droids, and deadly acid leaks on your own? Unfortunately, that's the way it has to be. Nearing the first ship, your heart races, beating faster and harder with each passing moment.
