The first game I ever bought for PC (there was a TV story about it). Unfortunately I didn't play it until a few years later because my computer didn't have a 3D accelerator :) It was worth the wait though. I still have the CD version, unfortunately it won't run on new Windows systems.

Very neat little arcade title. You control a ship and you run around the map, shooting enemies and solving some puzzles. The game is tricky to get it working properly on modern machines since the game speed is tied to the processor frequency which means that there are some areas that you cannot get past unless you limit your processor speed. I hope to see this game here on GOG working on modern operating systems. :)

A ridiculously charming PSone and PC classic I knew here in Australia by its alternate title "Overboard", managing to combine ship based exploration and combat together with a delightfully tropical soundtrack, excellent visuals, and charming voice clips that add a level of whimsy to plundering the high seas. It's a game that deserves a second chance to be played by a larger audience.

Uprising44: The Silent Shadows
Uprising44: The Silent ShadowsUprising44: The Silent Shadows combines third-person action play with real-time strategy. It is a unique combination of the two modes of play, and has an in-depth and interesting story-line which has not yet been used in WWII computer games – the greatest civilian Uprising against Nazi occupying forces – the Warsaw Uprising. It is a story of the Silent Shadows - forerunners of modern day special forces - paratroopers dropped behind enemy lines to organize resistance and use diversionary tactics in the fight against the forces of the Third Reich. An appropriate audio-visual setting combined with cover system (an excellent, proven method of game play), the story-line, and diverse settings ensure a dynamic and enjoyable game not only for players familiar with this type of theme, but also those merely wanting casual entertainment.

The player must lead the protagonist out of the dungeons and to the palace tower, defeating Jaffar and freeing the Princess in under 60 minutes.
