AmoebArena
1996
"Start with a futuristic version of Chinese checkers invented in a biohazard lab, add just a dash of the cantina scene from Star Wars, and you’ll get a pretty good idea of what AmoebArena is all about. This strategy" game’s concept is simple: pit your army of microscopic organisms against your opponents’ microscopic armies in a free-for-all arena battle. Imagine the game of Risk invented by a mad cellular biologist Your armies are made up of four types of single-cell soldiers: cytozoids, amoeboids, mitoplasts, and blockers. Each type varies in terms of movement, attack power, health, and ability to reproduce. You start the game with a set number of each organism, which you place in your corner, or “home area,” of the board. Your opponents do the same, and then it's a cytoplasmic slugfest as you pilot your pieces in the arena according to their movement allowances, attacking and defending. The winner is the player with pieces left on the hoard at the end of the battle. It took me less than five minutes toStep On It!

The Odyssey
1994
The Odyssey is a fun Macintosh-only RPG from David Larkin, a lone programmer. The game harks back to the olden days of Ultima IV, when RPGs were played from a bird's eye perspective, and offered a deceptively complex gameplay that would last for months on end. In addition to a neat plot based on Greek myths and an intuitive interface, The Odyssey offers many cool features that are not usually seen in commercial RPGs—let alone shareware games. The game uses a unique and realistic conversation system that is reminiscent of Ultima VI, and offers a fast and furious combat system that is easy to learn, but requires strategy not unlike the Bard's Tale games to succeed. The writing is strong throughout, and the plot is captivating enough and different enough from dime-a-dozen fantasy fodder to maintain your interest. A shareware game, the steep $25 fee for the registered version unfortunately got you nothing other than a hintbook. The shareware version for download is already a complete game, although some puzzles wilMindshadow
