Genres:Strategy, Turn-based strategy (TBS), Puzzle, Card & Board Game
Themes:Fantasy
Story:The third Yu-Gi-Oh! game for PC. It is also the final game of the Power of Chaos game series. The game includes 771 cards.
This game is featuring Joey Wheeler as the opponent, adds new cards, new dueling choices, new dueling options and more Decks for the opponent, making this the Power of Chaos game with the most content. The cards from the previous two Power of Chaos games, if installed, are included. New game features include a ranked difficulty for the computer opponent, denoted by a star gauge in the Duel menu, which ranks from 1 star to 9. As you win duels, the difficulty increases, and the opponent swaps his Deck for a more potent one every time this happens. Later difficulty levels (8-9) allow the opponent to use different Decks in that same level. Losing consecutive duels results in decreased difficulty for the first time in Power of Chaos games. Other options include allowing the opponent to use cards from the previous two games, increasing the difficulty. Also, the option to make many Limited cards Forbidden is given, making the game more balanced. One other new addition to the game is that when you win cards that you already have, you may have a choice of getting different cards, or keep the ones you've earned. This can only be done when every card you win in a match or one card in a single duel is a common card, not new. Last, you can also duel a friend via LAN or via Gameranger.Show more

Yu-Gi-Oh was pretty big when I was in elementary school, and since the Power of Chaos games didn't require a powerful PC, pretty much everyone I knew had all three games. Joey The Passion was the one we played the most - aesthetically, it is probably the best looking old school Yu-Gi-Oh game and we all tried to find a way to print out the realistic card scans from the game to avoid spending money on real cards. When I wasn't at my friend's place taking turns playing against the AI with decks that just had a bunch of cards we thought were good, I would be playing it at home backed by a Winamp playlist of around 50 random songs. Nothing would beat listening to Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger while attacking directly with a high level monster equipped with Mage Power and United We Stand.
I remember playing it a lot. Especially LAN option with a friend. Once had an 8 hour bus trip. Coach wi-fi as usually is very high latency for any real time game and low-throughput for anything of high bandwith. But it worked just perfectly fine when playing network mode versus my friend over hamachi (or something like that). Don't care if latency is in the hundreds of ms!
Any other online-only, mmorpg-like YGO games did not stick to me like this one and I would love this to come back.
This game was one of the first Yu-Gi-Oh games I played on PC back in the day. I have fond memories playing it with my sibling and it blew our minds keeping us occupied for hours. The card collection system where you get random card rewards by winning Duels against Joey is fun and keeps you excited. I would love to see this and the other two games (with Kaiba and Yugi) on GOG not only for preservation's sake but also because they are a must play for any Yugioh fan and take you back to a time where Yugioh was less stressful with fewer combos and shorter turns so you can just chill out and relax. Also the soundtrack is a 10/10

Medieval: Total WarExperience the middle Ages in all their blood-soaked magnificence. From the lush grasslands of Western Europe to the arid deserts of Northern Africa, from the first Crusade to the fall of Constantinople, implement diplomacy, utilize trade, espionage and assassinations, spread your religion and wage total war in order to expand your influence and secure your reign as you build a dynastic empire to stretch across four centuries.
Total War is the follow on from 2000’s Shogun- Total War. As with Shogun the game is split into two sections – the turn-based campaign map wherein the player is required to make strategic decisions, recruit and move armies, besiege settlements, fight naval battles and employ agents such as emissaries, spies and assassins to aid with diplomacy, offer alliances or bribes, or execute rather more clandestine actions.
Religion is important in the game and whether a faction is Muslim, Orthodox or Christian will affect allegiances and public loyalty – as a catholic nation the player must carry out the wishes of the Papal States, embarking on a holy war if need be or else run the risk of excommunication. If public order and loyalty should fall too low in a particular region a rebellion or a civil war may occur – in these situations the player may decide to side with the rebels or the current rulers to quell the rebellion or overthrow a tyrannous regime-Fantasy Historical Warfare 4X (explore, expand, exploit, and exterminate)
DiscworldDiscworld is a game released for PC (subsequently Mac, and Playstation) by Teeny Weeny / Perfect 10 studios in 1995. The game was released both on floppy disk and CD-Rom. The latter featured a commentary team created of many veterans of famous Brit-Coms. This included Monty Python's Eric Idle, Radio 4's (later to be more famous) Rob Brydon, ex- Doctor Who John Pertwee, 70s pop singer Kate Robbins, and Blackadder star Tony Robinson. The game is a riff on the Discworld title 'Guards, Guards', however many elements of the text have been shifted, not least the inclusion of Rincewind as protagonist.
The game featured puzzles which were considered far too difficult and obtuse for gamers of the time, but the game itself has had a lasting legacy, now being accepted into such emulators as SCUMMVM.Fantasy Historical Comedy
