  _IMPERIA-2_DUNE_

       ACTION

 And again, comrade Slip, pleases us with his
game projects! Although the game was released back in
2003, into our hands, it came already
after the new year.

                    At this time, we have before
                    represented realtime

                    Strategy written

                    based on (as the assertion
                    confirms the author) novel

                    "Heroes Alchibara.

                    The game

                    you choose. Externally

                    game reminiscent of "Black Crow", although 
the schedule is clearly the author's. 

 Game features:
Number of soldiers - 48
Number of buildings - 24
Number of missions - 32
Variety of units - 21

 Among other things, the game requires 256
kilobytes of memory, standard Pentagona,
or the Scorpion, and of desirable
turbo, and kempston mouse.
Well, that did not like me personally, it's

attention ...

    ACTION

 This is the third game of the series IMPERIA, it
code-named "Children of the other world."
 As you might expect, this game already

represents a role-playing game.
But for fans of hard mochiva not related to the plot of the 
game has a mode "his game" where you can "naboltat"

game parameters (resources, money, etc.)
as your heart desires.

  The graphics in the game has changed for the better

 According to be bound by these, we can say
one - "Action Group is moving in the right
direction! "



  _Doktor Aybolit_

      Transman

 Here is another puzzle game, it
represents another remake
prefixal game Dr. Mario.
 This tetrisopodobnaya toy, in which
should be put pills corresponding
color with a similar virus that cure you

valuable is the table of records that can be

discretion). And it is to find your
approach for a happy end ...



     _WIKING_First Edition_

  Disabler Production LabAratory

 In fact, it's not a game, but just
only recycling, but it is very global.
And even though the work is dated 2001, I
Have decided that she had no place in a dusty
shelf, and it is the right to see the light even in the
2004.

 That's what author wrote:

 The origin of this game is unknown,
but in 1987 she was disfigured in

                Poland. The game has been translated into
                Dehn into Polish and

                were also removed some
                torye fragments of the game.

                 In 1998, the game caught

                Disabler'u the eye, ie

                me. In those days, she told me

                did not liked it.

                 In 2001, I again

                faced with this game
                shkoy.
 At this time it has been more than interesting.
I took the liberty to slightly alter
and finish the game.

    Namely:


   - The game is completely painted

   - Added Digital Effects

   - Added music

   - Restored "Final Cut"

   - Written re-selection control (used to be a keyboard only)

   - Installed immortality

The game itself is in the annex of the newspaper ...
