Armed with a magic candy cane that shoots jingles and sprinkles, you run around the North Pole gathering gifts, freeing grounded reindeer, and thawing out elves. Beware of the growling abominable snowmen and the menacing grinchy creatures!
The townspeople are alarmed: the wicked witch has been seen riding about on her broom, casting her vicious spells and turning the town upside down. Only the good magician Arthur can undo her evil conjurations – but he’s nowhere to be found! Can you locate Arthur and help turn the town right side up again?
The player controls a small boy who attempts to find the good magician, exploring various locations around town to find helpful clues and objects; woven into the plot are several puzzles and mini-games designed to develop coordination, memorization and graphical/musical skills.
The cursor changes shape to indicate objects of interest, and there’s simple click/drag inventory system. The mini-puzzles vary in difficulty, according to the chosen skill level.

The DOS port of this game is mostly the same graphically compared to the original Amiga release, though there are some slight color changes (most notably in the UI which has changed from organe to yellow). The original AdLib (and by extension, Tandy 3-Voice) tracks are generally longer than the Amiga arrangement, and they play in a slightly different order. The track "The smiling blues" plays before "Much joviality" and "Not at all serious". This game was released as a stand-alone expansion or an add-on, and could picked up either as a 3.5" or 5.25" floppy disk.
A.G.E. is a follow-up to Galactic Empire. Like its predecessor, it is a first-person space exploration game rendered in 3D. As you pilot your spacecraft around the planets and stars, engaging in space combat and conversation with other characters, you unravel the Conquer the Universe plot. The game is similar to Elite in that you are relatively free to travel to wherever you please.
The MS-DOS version has a bit of a different intro due to graphical differences, different sounds, and some parts of the main HUD for your spacecraft have different colors. You can also select what mode the game will run in at the beginning at start-up.
Xonix is a classic arcade-style DOS game which was probably inspired by Qix. In the game, the player controls a small marker that moves on a rectangular playfield.

The player must avoid collisions with balls bouncing around the playfield to avoid losing a life.
Assume command of a five person treasure hunting team that searches possible underwater sites for sunken treasure and artifacts. Train the crew for different roles: divers that search the wreck while trying to stay out of the way of sharks, scientists that conduct research and examine historical artifacts and engineers that take care of the mechanical operation of your ship or submarine. Real-life shipwrecks are present in the game, including the Titanic. Of course, you have a rival for most of the game who is known as 'Evil Eddy' - the richest man in the world - and the goal of the game is to beat Eddy by becoming rich enough to purchase the ultimate submarine: the Sea Rogue.
