RATING (7-10)
A bomb has been set by terrorists to blow up a sky-scraping hotel in which the FBI’s Central Intelligence Unit is located, and you must diffuse it. Reaching the room itself is no easy task, as the hotel is split into segments of 8 floors, and you can’t move onto the next one without the emergency key which the porter has hold of – he must be located. Each of these has one eighth of the secret stop code and these must be entered in order to finally diffuse the bomb. Secrets can be gleaned from the opposing hijackers, and from the barman. In some cases furniture can be used to your advantage. The whole game is similar to Impossible Mission, requiring lots of logic, puzzle-solving
and structured thought.

RATING (7-10)
The player can eliminate enemies by throwing a star-like weapon and travel rapidly from place to place by means of a particularly-powerful trampoline. In certain versions, this was replaced by a falcon. However, sometimes the journeys must be carefully planned out, since the falcon can transport the player on one-way trips, and if all fairies have not been freed from the previous area, it will be impossible to win. The player has a limited amount of time to finish.

Picking up where Stormlord left off, Deliverance requires you to control a Viking on his quest to rescue some nude fairies. Though the hero vanquished the Evil Queen in the first game, her minions are a different story. While wandering through hellish environments, you have to snatch fairies from the sky, all while avoiding hazards and slaying different types of enemies. Wielding his trusty axe, the Viking can use it as a projectile or hack and slash enemies at close range. Of course, he can jump and climb, but he can also interact with certain background objects.

The lost colony of Alterra is a completely man-made world in a nearby galaxy, abandoned long ago. Alterra consists of five self-contained habitats, separately bio-engineered by a powerful ecosystem generation network known as a Multiple Organism Unit Link, or MORGUL for short. Early colonists used MORGUL to render Alterra inhabitable, but a cataclysmic earthquake severed all system interface functions, and MORGUL murderously rebelled. The few colonists lucky enough to escape told a grim tale of a higher intelligence gone berserk.
