» quasar - Two of my favorites in one article!

Wow William, you managed to get two of my favorite games in here - Bolo and Maelstrom. I've never played Bolo on a network - I'm sure it's more fun than just playing against the computer, but I've had heaps of fun going solo. Maelstrom is also a lot of fun if you like Asteroids.

A few other suggestions, if I might - Solarian II is an incredible arcade game. I've played it on 68020 and 68030 machines with no problem. BeamWars is the best Light Cycle game I've ever seen (Tron). It plays great on my Quadra but its very graphic intensive so might not do as well on lesser machines. Galactic Trader is my favorite of the "have a ship and a few bucks, go make $2 billion" games. I'm not even going to get into card games - there are simply too many excellent ones to count.

I could go on for a really long time since there are so many excellent games, but I won't.

Janice
