American Girl Julie Saves the Eagles

downloadlink
http://www.fileserve.com/file/jEvkp5g


Not surprisingly, this American Girl release is strongly recommended to young girls, but will not likely be well received by members outside of that demographic.

Animal Conservation Theme

One of a series of American Girl games, Julie Saves the Eagles instills the values of conservation and animal friendliness while performing simple tasks around the city of San Fransisco. Chinatown and Golden Gate Park are among the famous locations you explore. Unfortunately, the physical space these areas include is limited which certainly detracts from the excitement of scouting the city.

A Few Mini-Games

Mini-games can be re-played endlessly which allows for extra entertainment after the game has been beaten. However, these games themselves are not particularly creative or unique and can easily become monotonous to a more experienced crowd.
Graphics are commendable and depict realistic movements and animations but are still blatantly in a cartoon-style format. Some minor errors in detail such as a street salesman describing his balloons as Blue Whales that are evidently Killer Whales may be a tad irritating to some players, but overall are not a huge detractors.

Conclusion - Suitable for Younger Players

The opening sequence provides little to no direction as to how to interact with your environment which is rather frustrating, but if you stick with it for five to ten minutes it becomes easy enough to learn how to progress. In fact, perhaps the biggest downside to this release is just how straightforward and simple the tasks really are to complete. Each new character with whom you converse tells you exactly what you must do and where you must go to do it, eliminating any real adventure. However, the environment-friendly message sent is commendable and the activities included will certainly be appealing to a younger, likely gender biased audience, and those who fall into that category will truly enjoy helping Julie Save the Eagles.

King’s Quest I

download link
http://www.fileserve.com/file/XRUPCpV

King's Quest I set the standards for adventure games at the point of it's initial release in 1984, revolutionizing the industry by creating interactive characters that could move about each location. Updated and re-released with better graphics and enhanced dialogue options that add length, Quest for the Crown retains its original splendor thanks to the genuine challenge it presents.

No Hints Here

If you prefer more casual adventure games with easy tasks and a multitude of hint options then this may not be the right choice for you. There are no hints or help if you are unclear of where to go next and the more casual player will probably be turned off by this fact.
Often times items are hidden under rocks or down wells making them artfully tricky to uncover and once acquired there is typically some action that must be performed in order to use them properly. Although most items picked up will be used in a different area than their original location, their use is very bluntly indicated in the game which eliminates potential confusion.

Watch Out for Traps

Throughout the game, several locations and characters are traps that will require you to restart from your previous save point (with dead ends disabled) or from the beginning (with dead ends enabled), allowing the player to adjust to their preferred level of difficulty. Clever and creative mini-tasks truly test the players logic skills, such as guessing the name of a gnome and spelling it backwards correctly.

Old Game, Old Graphics

The graphics in full screen mode are incredibly pixelated and unfortunately running it in a window opens miniature window that cannot be maximized or resized. That said, this is not enough to rob the game of its well earned praise as the trend setter for modern adventure games.

Conclusion - A Fabulous Representative of Adventure Gaming Excellence

Overall, King's Quest I is a particularly challenging game that will test your patience, reason and ability through its clever challenges, lurking traps and well constructed scenery and although more casual players should approach with caution, the more experienced adventure gamer will certainly enjoy mastering this classic.

King’s Quest 2: Romancing the Throne

download link
http://www.fileserve.com/file/3xezYM9

This sequel to the legendary first release of King's Quest that practically invented the casual point-and-click adventure genre follows in the footsteps of its predecessor as a remarkable journey back in time, only now Sir Graham has become King of Daventry and must embark on a new, more deadly quest....he needs a woman!

Creative Story That Incorporates Fairy Tales (Ogres Not Included)

Lonely in your practically empty castle, a magic mirror reveals a beautiful damsel whom who decide to gallantly rescue from the perils of an evil witch who cursed said maiden to an enchanted tower. Creativity abounds in the fantastical land of Kolyma, primarily in the characters met; talking pumpkins, a big bad wolf and little red riding hood to name a few.

Adventure Game + A Few Chuckles

Most tasks are not cut-and-dry and require some out of the box intellect to solve, such as retrieving a baby bird and placing it in a flock of swans to transform said bird into a beautiful swan. Commentary is also particularly creative, such as the inclusion of a mailbox that, when approached, prompts the explanation “Its a mailbox... You've never seen one... Which isn't surprising as the postal service won't be invented for another several hundred years.”
It will take many hours to reach the conclusion of the game which makes it especially valuable, and the speed at which Graham moves is uncharacteristically rapid which allows for a quicker pace that does not interrupt the overall length of this release.

Old Graphics But Hey, It Was Made in the '80s

The only weak elements are the graphics, which are a product of their 1980s release date, and the background music which tends to be rather dull.
However, neither of these features are terribly bothersome and Romancing The Throne proves an excellent edition to the many King's Quest releases offering a fantastic tale with challenging tasks that will last countless hours.

Nancy Drew - Curse of Blackmoor Manor

download link 
http://www.fileserve.com/file/SBw9hFq

Help Nancy to uncover the mystery of this illusive manor by interviewing members of the house who slowly provide new information regarding the dark secret of the Penvellyn family of Blackmoor Manor.

A Spooky Adventure

The level of spookiness achieved in The Curse of Blackmoor Manor is truly commendable. With each creaking door entered you will feel the eerie history of this aged mansion thanks to the wonderful sound effects and background music.

Good Dialogue That is Essential to the Game

Voice acting is also very well done, including charming British accents and realistic dialogue. Many dialogue options, as well as actions, are interdependent on one another which means that some features will not be unlocked until other actions are performed, such as talking to daughter Jane in order to receive an important call. The upside is this produces a longer and more difficult game overall. The downside is at times it can be difficult to know who to talk to or where to look to unlock necessary information which slows the game down immensely and can easily lead to boredom.

Mini-Games Add Diversity to Gameplay

Mini-games included are diverse, including jigsaw puzzles, matching card games, computer games and more. While amusing, most mini-games are not required to solve the mystery at hand which will come as a delight to players who are only interested in the adventure and dislike these miniature challenges.

Creative Story Advancements

Unlike many adventure games that rely on text boxes to reveal important information, the Curse of the Blackmoor Manor unveils such info to the player primarily using creative dialogue options, interacting with other characters to gain inside knowledge, which is one of the most fantastically realistic qualities of the game.

Conclusion - An Excellent Adventure With Great Ambience

Nancy Drew and the Curse of the Blackmoor Manor will send chills down your spine by employing realistic graphics, sound effects and dialogue options that shroud the manor in mystery and magic. Although it may seem a bit slow at times, this game is truly well done and offers a spooky challenge that is both difficult and rewarding.

What Linus Bruckman Sees

download link 
http://www.fileserve.com/file/eyQMTxr

Innovative, progressive, and spectacular are all words that can be used to describe What Linus Bruckman Sees When His Eyes Are Closed. This game stands apart from other casual adventure games due to it's highly unique structure that actually features to entirely distinct story lines coexisting on a dual screen page.

Two Games Going At Once

In essence, Linus Bruckman is actually two games combined into one: a bustling alien fast food joint and an ancient Japanese folk tale. Curser movement corresponds on each screen, but the alien puzzle is the one that requires solving as the exquisite folk story is scripted in Japanese characters.

Interesting Presentation

Graphics for each story are vibrant and radically different, one featuring a bright array of colors and characters while the other exquisite, detailed drawing that is truly beautiful. The score is also a split between the two games that overlaps wonderfully, resulting in a harmonious tone that is both upbeat and ominous. The space theme can become annoying, but fortunately the options allow you to control the volume at which each song is played.

Crazy Characters

Scripting is also very satirical and includes visitors such as Chewbacca, a rather elderly Charles Heston “who was survived largely by feeding on the tears of small children,” and Julian Strangepork who cannot eat poultry not because he is a pig, but because he is Jewish.

Unlock the Secret of the Japanese Game

Although there is only essentially one task to complete, place the orders in the proper order and deliver them to the customers, this activity is time consuming and will require scrupulous logic to solve. Upon delivering the correct orders to their appropriate consumers, English subtitles are unlocked and the secret of the Japanese tale unfolds.

Conclusion - A Unique and Brilliant Game

This game is a gem. It's difficulty, wonderful graphics, matching soundtrack, and witty dialogue will entice players of every background and all are encouraged to test their intellect to learn what Linus Bruckman sees when his eyes are closed!

Sam and Max Season

downloadlink
http://www.fileserve.com/file/kwrQUc8

Sam and Max are a dynamic, oddly matched duo who combine their respective love of justice and violence to solve cases in the underbelly of their town. A point-and-click adventure game with elements of an RPG seen in the dialogue options, it is easy to maneuver through various locations in the town and pick up items needed to solve some peculiar cases.

Great Sense of Humor

Perhaps the most exciting feature of this game is it's comical and witty dialogue that is greatly appreciated by a mature audience. Violently rear-ending motorists to bring your speeding police car to a halt, shooting out taillights to impose outrageous fines to pay for tear gas is just one of many over-the-top plots you will find in this game and parents should be advised of such elements.

6 Dialogue Heavy Episodes

That said, the scenarios in which you find yourselves are hilarious and fun to watch, and with six episodes in this season, expect hours of entertainment. To the player seeking an adventure game, the greatest drawback will be that too much of the game is reliant on dialogue options with very little inventory object collecting to solve crimes.

Conclusion - Funny But Perhaps Too Simple For Advanced Gamers

Overall, Sam & Max is an amusing game that offers witty dialogue and an easy to learn format, but is perhaps too simple for some players and contains content that might not be suitable for all age groups. This game is recommended to players who enjoy adventure elements and are of an appropriate age.

Find the Thief Before It's Too Late!

A chase is in progress, and a disguised thief speeds down to the docks, jumping over crates, and boards a ship leaving his pursuers to shake their fists in the air. The next morning, Abdullah, an emissary to the Sultan, receives a message asking him to recover a stolen artifact that is believed to be aboard the vessel he is traveling on, the Glutomax.
The Glutomax will take a week before arriving at Hyade Island. Until then, Abdullah will have to discover which of the suspicious passengers has stolen the Eye of the Kraken. He must work quickly though, because if the thief makes it to the Island, it will possible for him to awaken the Great Kraken and rule the world.

A Classic Adventure Experience

Eye of the Kraken plays like most other point-and-click adventures with you moving around different environments and interacting with other character through just the click of a mouse. Eye of the Kraken's interface is very well-designed and simple to use with inventory items appearing at the bottom of the screen and a cursor which turns red over hot-spots, opening a drop-down menu to allow interaction.
The simple graphics give a unique charm to the game and the attention to detail in each of the passengers' cabins is very refreshing. Most of the puzzles which you'll face can be logically solved through inventory manipulation and interrogating the other zany passengers aboard the Glutomax. Each day is split into three time blocks and you'll have to complete certain tasks to progress, including some rather bizarre missions such as cockroach racing.

A Humorous Tale

Perhaps one of the most interesting aspects to Eye of the Kraken, and what differentiates it from other adventure games, is the hilarious cast of characters which you'll interact with. Abdullah encounters icons of literature like Odysseus and Count Dracula, historical figures such as Villon and Rasputin, and unusual new characters, including Olaf the Viking and Aboubakar, a powerful African marabout. With a blend of highbrow cultural references, slapstick, and numerous allusions to literary works, the humor in Eye of the Kraken is sure to find a fan with any age group.
So if you like point-and-click adventures with plenty of hilarious moments, then download Eye of the Kraken and give it a try today!

Pac PC

download link 
http://www.fileserve.com/file/fjWMWBw


PacPC is an excellent recreation of the original and iconic Pac-Man arcade game from the 1980s. You must guide Pac-Man through a maze, dodge a handful of ghosts, and eat all of the dots to advance to the next level. You can also compete against a friend to see who can rack up the highest score. Pac Man is a great classic that's also completely free.

Classic Pac Munching

In PacPC, you guide Pac-Man around a maze full of dots and ghosts. Your goal is to eat all of the dots and advance to the next level.  As you try to eat all of the dots, you'll have to dodge four ghosts that make their way around the maze and chase you.  If they manage to catch you, you'll lose a life. The other option besides dodging the ghosts is to make use of dots spread around the map that are larger than the others.  These dots will make the ghosts harmless to you for a short time, and allow you to eat them for bonus points.  Fruit pickups will also randomly appear in the maze and can be eaten for bonus points.

Not Much Variety

While there are a number of levels in PacPc, they all use the same maze, ghosts, and dots. The only difference is the level of difficulty. For example, in later levels, the ghosts move quicker and are no longer rendered harmless by eating the large dots. This difficulty level cannot be adjusted, but you can selected how many lives you want to start with (from 1-5) and the level you will start on.

2 Player Competition

The other option in PacPC is a two player mode. In this mode, you and a friend take turns on the same computer playing PacPC. It plays exactly like it does for a single player, except that you change turns when you lose a life. Your goal is to get the highest score you can manage and beat your buddy before you run out of lives. This competition with a friend can add a good deal of fun and excitement into the classic Pac-Man gameplay.

Easy to Learn But Turns Sometimes Are Tough

Controlling Pac-Man is a simple task. You can move him with the arrow keys, or even make use of a joystick. Despite the simple controls, it may sometimes be difficult to change directions. You may have to hit the arrow key several times to get Pac-Man to turn, which can easily lead to an otherwise avoidable death.

Old School Graphics

The graphics and sounds are just like the were in the original Pac-Man game. Unfortunately, that means that compared to many modern games today they are quite simple and out of date. However, doesn't detract or take away from the gameplay. If you care more about the looks than the fun or play of a game, PacPC won't be a great choice.

Conclusion - Good Basic Copy of the Original Pac Man

Overall, PacPC is still a great arcade game even decades after the original first came out. This recreation stays true to the original in almost every way. Navigate a maze filled with dangerous ghosts as you work to eat all the dots. Play alone or compete against a friend for the most points. The minor control issues and simple graphics may bother you, but don't outweigh the fun or enjoyment of the game. With a game like this available for completely free, there's no reason not to play it.

Chicken Invaders

 download link 


http://www.fileserve.com/file/7bQpDHg

Chicken Invaders is a strange new twist on the classic Space Invaders style arcade game. Chickens are invading Earth and it's your job to pilot a spaceship to take them out and save the world. You'll take on increasingly difficult waves of chickens and asteroids that threaten to destroy Earth. You can face the task alone or play with a friend. Goofy graphics and sounds add an interesting touch to the good arcade gameplay.

Straight Up Arcade Shooter

The gameplay at the heart of Chicken Invaders is very similar to other arcade shooters. You control a spaceship at the bottom of the screen that can be moved left or right. The enemies sit at the top of the screen, and its your job to eliminate them. However, you'll have to be quick and alert to dodge the eggs they drop. If you get hit by an egg, you lose one of your three lives. When destroyed, the chickens drop a drumstick you can collect for bonus points, or a present that will award you powerups and points. You repeat your actions on wave after wave until you finally lose all three lives and the game ends.

Asteroids, Chickens, and Eggs

There are ten different waves you face in Chicken Invaders. Some waves have you destroying the chicken invaders (who are organized in different formations throughout), while others have you dodging deadly asteroids heading straight for you. The final wave contains a single large chicken invader, and is the boss encounter. Once you complete the ten waves, they start over from the beginning and become more difficult than before. There will be more chickens to eliminate, and more asteroids or eggs to dodge as you progress. You cannot adjust or change the difficulty settings in Chicken Invaders.

Simple Controls

Similar to the gameplay, the controls are fairly simple. The spaceship you control is moved left or right with the left and right arrow keys (or the A and D keys). You fire with the Shift key, and shoot missiles with the Control key. The controls are given to you before you begin the game, and simple enough for anyone to learn or use. One downside when it comes to the controls is the inability to change them. It would have been nice to change the controls to something easier or more comfortable to use. Another problem with the controls is needing to hit Shift repeatedly to fire. It becomes tiring and repetitive to have to hit the same key over and over.
The visuals of Chicken Invaders is hardly cutting-edge, but is on par with other games in the same genre. They also add a somewhat humorous or goofy element to the game. The portrayal of the enemy as chickens and the dropped drumsticks when they are destroyed keep the game a lighthearted affair. The various simple sounds effects also play their part in bringing that feeling to the game, although they may get annoying after hearing them enough times.

Repetitive By Nature

The biggest issue with Chicken Invaders is the repetitive nature of the game. There are only three types of enemies/obstacles in the game (chicken invaders, asteroids, and bosses) that you deal with time and again. Additionally, the same ten waves repeat over and over as you progress in the game, only change in their difficulty. Having to repeatedly hit the Shift key to continuously fire only adds to the repetitiveness of the game. Playing with a friend (each of you controlling one ship) or working towards new high scores to upload can help offset the monotony, and people really into arcade shooters may not be bothered by the repetitive elements found in many such games.

Conclusion - It All Depends On How Much You Like Frying Chickens Over and Over....

Overall, Chicken Invaders is a decent game with its positive and negative aspects. There's solid arcade gameplay at the core, but the lack of options and repetitive nature may put off some players. The options to play with a friend and upload high scores are nice additions to the game. If you like arcade shooter games, you may find this very fun and addictive. Even if you don't, there's no reason not to at least give the game a try, especially since it's free.

Worms 2

download link
http://www.fileserve.com/file/aK3BhGP

Worms 2 is a thrilling turn-based strategy game that anyone could enjoy. Teams of up to 8 worms do battle with an array of devastating and outlandish weapons ranging from an exploding sheep to a napalm air strike. Create the battle as you see fit by customizing weapons and levels. Great multiplayer support gives you a number of ways to take on friends or play against computer opponents suited to your skill level. Worms 2 is a whole lot of strategy, a whole lot of hilarity, and just plain fun.

Worm Team 1 - Kill Worm Team 2

In Worms 2, battle takes place between two or more teams of worms. Each team can have anywhere from 1-8 worms on it. These teams can either be player controlled or computer controlled. Once you've created the teams for your battle, you'll be able to select a level to play or choose a randomly generated one. You'll also be able to change options for the battle (such as how powerful weapons are, how much health each worm has, etc.). Once you've finished setting up the battle, the action begins. The worms on each team will be randomly placed throughout the level and your goal is to eliminate as many other worms as possible and be the last team standing.

Lots of Customization Options

One great feature of Worms 2 is the level of control and customization you have in the game. When creating or editing teams you can choose not only the team name, but the names of individual worms as well. You can even change the accents of the voice that your worms use. Of course, the options aren't limited to cosmetic changes. You have a huge array of choices and options to make when it comes to weapons as well. You can change the ammunition of a weapon, the damage a weapon will deal, the size of the explosion a weapon generates, and even more. You can change how much health the worms have, how long the game will last before sudden death starts, the length of each turn, and a number of other options that give you an unbelievable amount of control over the battles.

Create Your Own Levels

Worms 2 has a basic level editor that can be used to make a battlefield perfectly suited to your needs. Battles also take place on randomly generated levels with a wide variety of designs and layouts. You can specify the type of terrain and the amount of obstacles present. All of the terrain and obstacles in a level can be destroyed, which adds to the strategy of play and the importance of selecting a good level to play on.
As a result of the ability to customize and control nearly every aspect of battle in Worms 2, the difficulty can be adjusted in any number of ways to suit your skill or needs. Additionally, the computer controlled teams can have their difficulty level adjusted higher or lower to provide the right challenge. You can challenge yourself with tough and drawn out conflicts, or relax in a quick and easy game as you blow away your opponents. However, strategy still plays a big role in the game regardless of the settings you choose.

Multiplayer Wormy Violence

Another great feature of Worms 2 is the ability to play against other players and the number of ways in which you can do so. You can take on other players on a single computer, over your local computer network in LAN play, or on the Internet. Beating computers is fun, but there's nothing more satisfying than being able to take on friends in a violent free-for-all.

A Tutorial Would Have Been Nice

The controls in Worms 2 are simple and easy to learn, despite the lack of any sort of tutorial. You can look around the map by moving the mouse. Worms are moved left or right with the corresponding arrow keys, and jump with the Enter key. The various weapons are selected with F1-F12, and fired with the Space Bar. When it is your turn, you can choose which worm to use by using the Tab key. While a tutorial of some sort would have been a nice addition, not having one isn't a huge hindrance to playing the game.

Simple Graphics That Work

The graphics in Worms 2 consist of “cartoony” 2D action. While they may not match up to many more modern games, they work well for the game and really bring an element of humor that adds to the fun you'll have. There's some strange satisfaction in watching as the worms bounce around from explosions and fires, or turn blue and explode on death.
The sounds in the game also add to the hilarity. As the worms move around and shoot each other, they'll make various comments on what is happening. For example, if a worm manages to damage a teammate with a weapon, you might hear a remark about him being a traitor. On top of the funny comments, the ability to change accents of worms makes them an even bigger laugh. Despite the simplicity, the visuals and audio are great additions to the game.

Conclusion - Excellent Turn-Based Strategy

Worms 2 is an excellent turn-based strategy game that will be great entertainment for the strategy buff and everyone else as well. Do battle with an array of devastating and outlandish weapons like the Homing Pigeon. Customize an unbelievable number of options to create a battle that's perfect for you. Tests your skills against computer opponents or take advantage of the multiplayer offering and battle against other players. Humorous looks and sounds add the perfect touch to an amazing game.
Worms 2 is a game well worth playing.

Army Men RTS

download link 
http://www.fileserve.com/file/b6JEZpc

Army Men RTS is a real-time strategy title that lets you take command of your favorite little green soldiers to take on the Tan army and defeat a defecting Green general. It has all the traditional RTS elements such as resource harvesting, base building, and commanding armies of units around the battlefield. The interface is very simple and easy to use with most commands and camera movements controlled by the mouse.

What Army Men Were Meant to Do

The unique setting and world of Army Men provides a refreshing new twist to this classic game genre. There isn't anything like exploring flower gardens and counter tops as you take out Tan bases, try to capture an infinite power source, or escape from a basement infested with ants. It is really fun to send out your plastic soldiers and take advantage of the varied unit types, such as the grenadier, medic, half-track, and mortar men, each with their own strengths and weaknesses.

Hero Units and Resource Management

There are also several hero units like Sarge, Hoover, Riff, and Scorch, and the game does a good job of giving each of them their own personality and appeal. Also, the resource system is rather intriguing as you harvest various mundane items like toy robots, frisbees, and watches for plastic and electricity. You can even collect plastic from fallen soldiers and destroyed buildings!

Some Gameplay Constraints

There are, however, a few slight issues which can detract from the gameplay. For starters, you can only create four unit groups which is quite a constraint considering the varied unit types.
Also, the pathfinding for large groups of units isn't the best and can be the cause of frustration as your font-line units get stuck behind your support troops. This is further complicated by the fact that you can't really adjust your units' behavior and they attack any enemy unit on sight. This can cause some problems when attacking enemy bases since your mortar team needs one of your units in sight of the target but that unit tends to want to just rush in and attack, which can mess with your strategy.
Finally, there isn't a whole lot of replay value since there is only the linear campaign and single-scenario Great Battles, which have environments taken from the campaign.

Conclusion - Fun, Basic RTS

Army Men RTS provides a fun and gratifying RTS experience. The variety of units and heroes are a pleasure to play around with and the unique gameplay universe is both refreshing and fascinating. There are some issues which hamper the gameplay slightly, but the addicting gameplay tends to make up for this.
Overall, Army Men RTS is a great game for new players to the genre to jump right into and hard-core fans can find some enjoyment with its originality, though they might be turned off a bit by its lack of complexity.

American Civil War

downloadlink 
http://www.fileserve.com/file/AZRtFm4
American Civil War: Gettysburg is a turn-based strategy title which puts you in command of the South or North during many key engagements during the Battle of Gettysburg. Take up the flag of the Confederacy or check Southern aggression with the Union in many historic missions, such as Picket's Charge and the defense of Little Round Top.

Good Civil War Era Strategy

The gameplay is rich in strategy with flanking, height advantages, and different unit types, yet keeps things fairly simple and the interface is crisp and easy to use. The tried and true turn-based action plays out on maps that are divided in classic war game hexagons, and you really get to examine the field and issue orders to place your units where they can be most effective.

Issue Tactical Orders and Watch the Battle

What makes this title really stand out is that once you issue your orders and end your turn, you get a vibrant 3-D rendition of your units as they follow those commands. You can watch as your quick moving columns spread out into line formations, see individual soldiers fall under musket volleys, or hear the the hoof beats of your charging calvary. These all add together to make combat quite exciting and it is really nice to actually see how your tactical choices affect the battles.

Smaller Scale Battles

Some war gamers might be a little put off by the fact that every unit serves a clear purpose during a mission and most missions play out in a relatively small area. Don't expect to be commanding huge forces, managing resources, or any kind of diplomacy as the action is a bit more simplified.
Also, there were some confusing instances concerning the outcomes of some of the battles. It was quite puzzling to see non-entrenched infantry putting up a surprising fight against fully covered troops or calvary being utterly decimated by cannons. This may have been put in there to replicate the unpredictability of war but it can get a bit distressing when such instances throw a wrench in your carefully laid out plans.

Lots of Gameplay Here

With a rather long campaign, skirmish mode where you can battle on mission maps with units of your choosing and have the option to allocate points to either side to customize the conflict, and multiplayer option, there is plenty of gameplay to be found with American Civil War: Gettysburg. The straightforward strategic elements, nice 3-D action scenes, and easy to use controls make this a great title for players who are new to turn-based action games and has enough depth for more seasoned players.

Conclusion - Good Civil War Strategy Game

While this game may not be for everyone out there, it is definitely worth giving a try and is a decent addition to fans of this genre.

Construction Destruction

 download link
http://www.fileserve.com/file/D8zGE2b
Construction Destruction is a realistic simulation game that puts you in the driver's seat of a variety of different construction machines. Transporting dirt and gravel, digging holes for a foundation, lifting heavy equipment, demolishing buildings, you'll do it all in this game as you work through the ten unique missions. Looking for something more relaxing? A Free Play Mode lets you do what you want with whatever machine you want. This game is a good choice for all the construction enthusiasts out there.

Appeals to Your Destructive Tendencies

In Construction Destruction, you take control of a variety of vehicles to accomplish realistic tasks. For example, one mission has you using a bulldozer to tear down a small garage damaged by a hurricane. You need to tear down the garage and place the debris in a certain area. Not only that, but you've got to do with without damaging the nearby house or pool.
Whether you succeed in the mission is based on your performance in several areas. Speed, safety, and accuracy all determine how well you do. You need to complete the mission as quickly as possible with as little collateral damage as you can manage to earn the most cash and successfully complete your missions.

Realistic Missions

There are a total of ten different missions to tackle in the game. Each mission is a unique job in a different location. You'll be given several different vehicles to use throughout these missions. One mission gives you the objectives of hauling dirt and gravel with a dump truck. Another has you placing air conditioners on the roof on a building with a crane. Every mission has a realistic goal and machine you need to accomplish that goal.

Game Modes

Construction Destruction offers three different modes of play: Training Mode, Career Mode, and Free Play Mode. The Training Mode teaches you the basics of moving and using the five different vehicles you use throughout the Career and Free Play modes. The Career Mode has you take on ten different missions from helping construct buildings to demolishing them. You earn money for successfully completing your jobs and not causing unwanted damage. However, this money serves no real purpose in the game.
The Free Play Mode lets you choose a level and vehicle to do whatever you want. The ability and freedom to do what you want is a nice option, but is still fairly limited. You are confined to a small area on each level, and can only destroy some buildings or structures.

Difficult

Another issue is the level of difficulty in the game. While there are three difficulty options offered that range from easy to hard, the game can be challenging even on the easy difficulty. For example, one mission requires you to dig a hole that is 1.5 meters deep in a given area. While the easy difficulty will allow you to be successful with a slower time and lower accuracy, properly digging the hole is still no small feat. On top of that, it's easy to fall into a hole or flip over a machine and become stuck, requiring you to start over.

Controls Can Be Complex

The controls in Construction Destruction can range from extremely simple to terribly complex, depending on which machine you are using. The dump truck has only a few simple controls to move and dump dirt/gravel. The excavator is more challenging with controls not only for movement, but moving two different parts of the arm, the bucket, and rotation the cab. Using all of these together and correctly can be a difficult challenge. Additionally, the game doesn't do a good job of teaching or introducing these controls to you. You're left to look them up yourself (even in the Training Mode). The one bright spot is that they are easy to find and customize in the game menus.

Realistic Game Physics

Construction Destruction generally does a good job when it comes to the presentation. All of the vehicles look and function realistically. You actually create holes and hills as you move dirt around. There are several camera options provided that let you see all the action from far away or sit right in the driver's seat. The sounds are authentic and the vehicles even have a radio with several channels to provide music if you need something to listen to. You can even hear the trees snap as you run them over.
The biggest downside when it comes to the presentation is the lack of detail for environments. While it isn't game-breaking, it would have been nice to have more detail in the buildings, ground, trees, etc.

Reputation Doesn't Matter

The grading of your work in missions and the effect it has on your reputation add some replay value to the game, but not much. There's no real reason to go back and redo missions, since reputation and money don't benefit you at all in the game. Additionally, the Free Play Mode doesn't offer enough to do to keep you around for a long time. In the end, this game probably won't last much longer than the time it takes you complete all of the missions (although that is still a good deal of time).

Conclusion - A Good Fit For Construction Fans

Construction Destruction is a game that would be a good choice for players who are really into construction and want a realistic simulation for that experience. This game will place you in control of authentic machines as you tackle missions ranging from digging a hole for a building's foundation to demolishing damaged buildings.
There are a few issues like complex controls or a high level of difficulty, but if you are truly interested in the construction theme it shouldn't be a huge problem. For anyone else, this game probably isn't the best choice for you.

John Deere Drive Green

 download link
http://www.fileserve.com/file/dBFZt7F
John Deere: Drive Green is a simulation game with a unique and interesting farming experience. You are a farmer doing various jobs for other farmers to earn money and improve your own farm and equipment. You'll get behind the wheel of a number of authentic John Deere machines as you tackle jobs such as plowing or spraying fields. You'll have to work quickly but efficiently to complete the jobs and earn the most money.

Farming is Just Better on John Deere Rigs

You start off your farming career with only limited and basic equipment. To earn more money and improve your own farm, you'll first need to earn money by doing jobs for other farmers. Successfully completing jobs will earn you money (John Deere dollars) that can be used to buy new machines. You can use the experience you gain doing jobs for other farmers and the machines you buy to grow and harvest crops on your own farm. You must also maintain your property and tackle simply tasks such as mowing your lawn.

Pick A Job and Get'er Done!

There are fifteen different jobs available in John Deere: Drive Green. Each job places you in control of an authentic John Deere machine in a unique location. One job will have you harvesting crops with a 9860 STS Combine in a field, while another will have you using a CX20 mower to cut the grass on a golf course. Other jobs have duties that range from planting seeds to spraying crops. Although each job explores a different machine and aspect of farming, the gameplay does not differ significantly from one job to the next. It may be realistic, but can also be repetitive. Additionally, working on a large field can be boring as you'll need to drive around it many times to complete the job.

Easy Controls

John Deere: Drive Green is not a very difficult game when it comes to controls or gameplay. The controls needed for each machine are clearly laid out before you need to use them, and can be referenced via the menu. Vehicles are moved with the WASD keys, while their implements (like a mower or plow) are activated with the Space Bar. Gameplay is not very difficult either, with jobs consisting of simply driving your John Deere machine around a field until you have sufficiently covered it. However, covering a field more efficiently will earn you more John Deere dollars than randomly or poorly covering the field would.

Unique Theme For Farming Dudes and Dudettes

John Deere: Drive Green has an unusual and intriguing farming theme present throughout all aspects of the game. From the clothing of your character to the detailed and realistic John Deere vehicles, you'll feel immersed in the world of farming. You are literally in the driver's seat of these machines. You'll watch fields change before your eyes as you plow, seed, spray, and mow them. The music also provides a nice compliment to the gameplay and helps set the farming atmosphere.

Some Replay

While John Deere: Drive Green offers fifteen different missions, the game can be short. There are a limited number of vehicles or implements to buy with the John Deere dollars, and once you have bought them all you have no more use for the money. However, there are some things that may keep you playing even after that point. You can redo the jobs and try to be more efficient to earn more money (although the extra money won't help you). You can also continue to work on your own farm after completing the jobs and buying all the equipment using the knowledge and experience you gained.

Conclusion - Good For Those Looking For Farming Sims

John Deere: Drive Green would be a good choice for anyone looking for a realistic simulation game or interested in the unique farming experience of the game. Simple controls and gameplay make it suitable for all ages. You can tackle a variety of farming jobs with detailed and authentic John Deere machines, or maintain and improve your own farm.
While it may not last as long as you'd like, you'll still find the positive aspects more than outweigh the short length or similarity between jobs. Play John Deere: Drive Green and find out if you've got what it takes to be a farmer.

RollerCoaster Tycoon 2

 download link
http://www.fileserve.com/file/3bwjhC5


rollerCoaster Tycoon 2 is a detailed and in-depth simulation game that puts you in control of your very own theme park. You are in total control and decide what rides are built, how much to charge for admission, who to hire, and more. You build your park from scratch as you see fit and work hard to attract more guests and make more money. You can even design your own coasters or build real Six Flags roller coasters.

Pick a Scenario

You start RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 by selecting one of twenty-six theme park scenarios. Each scenario has a different location and objectives. Some scenarios place you in control of a castle or factory that you must turn into a popular and profitable theme park. Other scenarios may place you in control of real-life Six Flags theme parks. Possible objectives include having a certain number of guests in your park within a few years time, having a certain park rating, or even earning a certain income per month.

How You Meet the Scenario Goal is Up to You

Once you've selected your scenario, you'll be handed a theme park and $10,000. You must use this money to build attractions and amenities that will draw as many people to your park as possible. You have a huge array of options and choices in how you want to build your park. You can build rides that have already been designed for you or build your own from scratch. You can choose which food and drink stands you want to build. You make decisions on hiring staff such as a handyman to keep the park clean, or a mechanic to keep your rides running. You decide the prices and admission fees that fund your park. You even have control over the landscaping within your park. There are endless possibilities when it comes to creating an amazing theme park.

Difficulty Varies With Each Scenario

The various scenarios in RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 are split up into several difficulty levels that are all available at the start of the game. This lets you choose a difficult that's right for you, while still giving you some choice on the park you'll start with. If you're a more experiencing simulation player or played the first RollerCoaster Tycoon, you can skip right to the more challenging scenarios. Similarly, less-skilled players or those new to the series can start with easier parks.

Tutorials Are Helpful But Incomplete

There are also several tutorials provided to introduce players to the game and the basics of building a successful park. While the tutorials are quite useful and a requirement to anyone new to the game, they also only deal with the basics. To figure out the more advanced or difficult elements you'll need to experiment with your parks.

Easy Controls, Camera Angles Can Be Tricky

The controls in RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 are fairly simple. Objects are selected and placed with the mouse, while you can move your view around the park with the arrow keys. All of the buttons you use in building your park are labeled as well. It might be a bit difficult to learn these on your own or through experimentation, but the tutorials do a good job of covering what the buttons do (such as rotating the camera or building a ride). The biggest issue with the controls is the limited camera angles. You can only view your park from four directions, which can make seeing/building things like walkways in your park more difficult than it should be.

Older But Detailed Graphics

While RollerCoaster Tycoon 2's graphics are somewhat old, they are also very detailed. You can see individual people as they traverse your park, a roller coaster on its track, or even litter on the walkways and paths of your park. These small details add a great touch to the game and improve on the simulation. The sounds also play into the simulation nature of the game, as you can select the music played for each ride that adds to that ride's theme. You'll be able to hear the music you pick for a ride every time you click on it. They won't blow you away, but the graphics and sounds work very well with the game.

A Lot of Play Time Here

The variety of scenarios as well as the ability to custom build your parks and rides means that this game will last a long time, but also gives you a reason to replay scenarios multiple times. Each park provides unique challenges and locations to tackle. Even if you do the same scenario several times, you can create a completely different theme park each time.
The biggest issue with playing through the scenarios is the time investment required. It takes a long time to get through one scenario, and there is no way to speed up the game if you meet your objectives early or want to fast-forward to the point when you've earned enough money for more rides. Additionally, you're limited to the twenty-six scenarios when it comes to creating parks. It would have been great it there was an option to create a park with unlimited money and no restrictions or objectives.

Conclusion - As Fun As a Real Theme Park (Without the Motion Sickness)

Overall, RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 is an excellent and detailed simulation game. Fans of the RollerCoaster Tycoon series and simulation games will not be disappointed. The game is also a great choice for players who may not be as familiar with the series or genre. You control every aspect of your park in one of twenty-six unique and interesting scenarios. Work with real-life parks and rides or build custom parks and rides from scratch.
A few minor issues pale in comparison to all that this game has to offer. RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 will provides hours upon hours of entertainment.
