Dream Zone is a first-person adventure game. A mad scientist's elixir has turned the protagonist's dreams into reality; while in this dream state, he must fight to stay alive, leave that forsaken place, and return to the real world. The game is composed out of still screens, and the player can move between them by selecting four directions. The interaction is performed either by typing text commands or by selecting verbs bound to function keys. Among those verbs are traditional "Look", "Talk", as well as the more unorthodox commands such as "Buy" or "Hit".Dark Side

To complete the mission, the player has at his disposal an arsenal of beam weapons mounted on a jetpack equipped pressure suit.

Chubby Gristle

Chubby Gristle is one of the fattest car park attendants ever and as the game progresses he is likely to get even bigger. On a good day he's barking out instructions such as "You can't park here" but if you happen to be in favour he'll probably mumble "I'll have a word with t'Commissioner and try and sort something out for you". Love 'em or hate 'em, car park attendants can't be ignored! Chubby's one passion in life is FOOD and plenty of it and his aim is to eat his way through 20 screens stuffing himself silly and reaching that one ton mark. If he doesn't, then the consequences of being sent to a health farm just don't bear thinking about! Throughout the game you need to collect certain items to help you later on but be choosy as not all items will help you.

Bombuzal
1988
Little Bombuzal has to blow up bombs on little islands in this puzzle game. In order to advance to the next level, all bombs need to detonate. There are various sizes of bombs. Bigger ones have such a huge blast radius that Bombuzal cannot trigger them directly - instead, he has to explode smaller bombs first and cause a chain reaction. So as one might imagine, later levels turn into loud blastfests that need to be carefully planned. Besides, later levels introduce all kinds of additional hazards and gimmicks, like ice floors, movable bombs, disappearing ground tiles, and much more. Nobody said being a pyromaniac is easy.Black Lamp

star 6.6Black Lamp. Capture it... and the hand of a princess. No joke. Jolly Jack the Jester wants more from his boss (the King) than a few good laughs. He wants his daughter's hand in marriage.

Does Jack have something more than a few bad jokes up his sleeve? Is the King's sorcerer the source of surprises? Will Jack and Princess Grizelda live happily ever after? Play Black Lamp and find out! Extraordinary animation, detailed backdrops and excellent animation makes Black Lamp a winner! ExBeyond the Ice Palace

Battle Valley
1988
This side-view shoot 'em up involves trying to retrieve two nuclear weapons which have been stolen by terrorists. These are located at opposite ends of the playing area, so you can pursue them in either order. Needless to say, the terrorists have plenty of forces out to prevent you getting too far. Unusually, the game features both a helicopter and a tank - you choose either from the base, and can fly/drive back there to change. The best strategy is to use the helicopter to shoot out air-based enemies and repair the various bridges, then return for the tank. You get 4000 seconds in which to complete all this, and losing a life costs you 500 of these.Bank Buster
