1000 Miglia: Volume I: 1927-1933

Commodore 64 - Released - 1992

Based around a classic motor car race from either side of the war, 1000 Miglia (literally '1000 miles') is an unusual racing game. You have to progress across Italy through a number of stages in your rickety 20s car. Keeping within time limits at each point is crucial to staying in the game. At the beginning of the game, you can choose the spare parts that you will take with yourself in case your car breaks down. You also choose a car and set up the skills for your two drivers; you can distribute points between Skill, Resistance and Mechanics, and choose the driver's favorite part of the race. Atmospheric conditions change throughout the race: sometimes the weather will be clear, sometimes you'll have to drive through rain or mist. During the race, your car will sometimes lose a wheel or need other repairs. If this happens, you'll lose a couple of minutes repairing it - as long as you have the appropriate spare part; if you don't have one, it's game over!

Key Finders

Commodore 64 - Released - 1990

In the game Keyfinders you have to explore a maze. Obviously, this was done with rather malicious intent and by a very self-centered person. Because there is no doubt that the facility was built to get lost in it and to perish in agony. In a creative way, there are not four differently colored ghosts cavorting in this maze, but space shuttles, jumping balls, spiders, small robots and bats. Of course, everything is also riddled with traps - so variety is provided. Instead of staying away from all of this, the hero whose role we put ourselves in the game is now stuck in this very maze. His name is Nebraska Joe - and any resemblance to the most famous archaeologist in film history is surely just a stupid coincidence. His job is no easier, however, by hopping, climbing ladders, and collecting keys and equipment, he works his way bravely through the hostile environment. There are four levels to master and to reach the exit of the labyrinth - in the best case, alive ... Published in Magic Disk 64 1990/03
