Der Clou!
Alternate Names: "The Clue!"
Title Screen
neo Software 1994
Genre: Strategy, Puzzle
Rating: 5/6
Language: Deutsch, English
Licence: Freeware
System: Amiga
Lured by the promise of quick money, Matt Stuvysunt arrives in London in early 1953. A meeting with his not very sympathetic, but nevertheless fascinating aquaintace Briggs provides him with a used car, some startup money and at least a faint idea where to start: a small kiosk somewhere out of town. Low gain, but also close to zero risk. Briggs himself is obviously up to something a lot bigger.

Der Preis ist Heiß

Made directly following Geh aufs Ganze, this is another TV show. Guess the prices of real products, and be more accurate than the other AI or human players - thrilling!

Tapuak was responsible for entering the prices into the 'database'. The final 'level' is unfortunately missing, because we both couldn't remember the exact rules anymore.

Der Rasende Reporter
Title Screen
Promotion Software 1994
Genre: Strategy
Rating: 2/6
Language: Deutsch
Licence: Freeware
System: Amiga
We're slowly turning into a propaganda site for the government - this is already the third game financed by them we're presenting! No idea what we're trying to compensate with that, wishful thinking at our school days maybe (since they're all 'educational' games) or bad conscience because of the terrorist acts.... er... better stop talking about that now.

Desperabis

Genre: Adventure, Action
Rating: 5/6

As Kiarthan, a medieval lad with an almost finished schooling in magic, you creep into a wizard's castle in order to find a mysterious crystal which is supposed to heal your lady's disease.


Dunkle Schatten
Title Screen
Art Department 1994
Genre: Adventure
Rating: 2.5/6
Language: Deutsch
Licence: Freeware
System: PC
"Dunkle Schatten" (Dark Shadows) was released during the "Fairständnis" campaign of the German Ministries of Inner Affairs in 1994. The slogan was "respect human rights - against racial hatred", the development was executed by Art Department, a company well known for its advertising games at that time.

Ein ganz normaler Schultag

Compared to my previous Adventure games, this one offers a vastly improved 'engine' which allows the player to move around freely through the (admittedly few) locations. Puzzles have been included as well this time.

Elefanten!
Title Screen
elefanten Schuh GmbH / WWF 1993
Genre: Strategy
Rating: 1.5/6
Language: Deutsch
Licence: Freeware
System: Amiga
A well-known shoe company of the 80s teams up with a well-known environmental organization of the 80s to present you this economical simulation. Commercial advertisement mixed up with promotion for a 'good cause' - very, very questionable.

Energie-Manager
Title Screen
Rauser / BWMi 1993
Genre: Strategy
Rating: 2/6
Language: Deutsch
Licence: Freeware
System: Amiga
Just a little more than ten years ago (in 1993), there was no 'Internet' of today's proportions. Computer magazines coming with CDs full of stuff were still uncommon, too. To be exact, the first 'one-shot issues' of this kind appeared in early 1994 in Germany. So, 1993 was still a year of game demos being spread on floppy disks, and those were available on quite a few magazine covers.

Flug 714 nach Sydney
Title Screen
Mr Creosote 1996
Genre: Adventure
Rating: 1/6
Language: Deutsch
Licence: Freeware
System: PC
My second text adventure. 'Flight 714 to Sydney' is a Tintin comic, and the game follows it pretty closely... until the second half which is pretty much skipped completely, because I didn't like all that alien stuff.

Frederik Pohl's Gateway

Aeons ago, a technologically advanced alien race called the 'Heechee' had already mastered the secret of faster than light spacetravel. They explored several planets and constructed space stations. Then, they just disappeared.
