A generic vertical shooter with decent visuals but very slow combat.

A decent take on a Lemmings style auto-runner with puzzle mechanics, but not much replayability here.

A relatively simple war game sim, but easy to pick up and play and came with a scenario editor which is always a plus for replayability.

A serviceable, but generic sidescrolling shooter.

It looks pretty good, and the highly variable weapon system is a neat idea, but the level design is so mediocre that the weapon system can't really pull it up from being an average shooter.

Decent visuals can't save the utterly shoddy platforming here.

A nice turn based hex strategy game with fantasy visuals that are a little more colorful than the usual military aesthetic found in titles of this period.

A slightly improvement over other early 3D endeavors like Freescape. It mixes a blend of puzzles and basic first person shooting, but is still held back by the technology of the time and a busy UI.

Nice visuals and animations held back by a clunky framerate.

Just as good and weird as the first one. This time you start on Earth and eventually explore beyond the solar system, but the game builds on this exploration in phases that alter the gameplay as you progress. This is a lengthy one, and can start to feel repetitive in the back half, but that length also adds some weight to the effort in colonizing the galaxy.
