You play the part of the head of a railroad company, with the aim of creating your own railroad empire, providing a successful mass transit system that will be an inspiration to the rest of the world. Another goal is to provide the impetus for your chosen city to develop. There are a number of different places to set up business each with different layouts and existing houses and businesses. The main money earners are passenger trains, that can be scheduled to pick up passengers at the times of day when the demand is high. However, in the long term you need the city to develop. This requires setting up trains that transport resources to where they are needed. These resources are used to build houses, and other buildings, increasing the number of passengers for your commuter trains. As the city develops, new businesses will spring up, such as stadiums, high rise office blocks, and ski resorts. You can also build your own businesses, the success of which will depend on the local population, the presence of competinLemmings

Lemmings
1992
While the intro cutscene is absent, the graphics in this port see a decent upgrade to resolution over the original version. This is perhaps most obvious in the lemmings themselves, which are much more detailed than before. The FX and soundtrack stay mostly unchanged, and overall this might be considered the best port of the game due to being almost identical other than the graphics upgrade. The game was released as a 3 Floppy Disk Set seperated by program, graphics, and levels + sound.Rodney's Wonder Window

Having been charged with an unknown, often absurd crime, you are forced to bargain for their innocence from a sadistic kangaroo judge who takes every opportunity to belittle and harass them.

Hellcats Over the Pacific is a flight simulator focusing on the Pacific Theater of World War 2. The player assumes the role of a Grumman F6F Hellcat pilot in both land and carrier-based missions using guns and bombs. Hellcats used a special algorithm that Eric Parker initially programmed on a Sun SPARCstation to speed up the display of graphics on the screen. Hellcats offered amazing 256 colors at a time when 16 colors were the norm and (for the time) insanely smooth and fluid animations. The game was a huge hit on the small Macintosh gaming market, selling more than 50,000 copies. It ranked for years in the "most popular games" sections of magazines like Inside Mac Games and won Macworld magazine's yearly award for the "Best Simulation Game".A Silly Noisy House
