I just got a copy of Crystal Quest from Programs-Plus for $28. It's a pretty neat game, runs on a Mac2 in color (or gray scale). It's basically an enhanced version of Crystal Raider. New features are: good on-line help, you can quit from it, colors, lots of bizarre (and some obnoxious) digitized sounds, more bad things to kill you, smart bombs, and it keeps getting tougher, so you can't play forever (a problem with Crystal Raider, once you got past level 25 or so). The only problems I see are that it's not Multifinder compatible, and it's copy protected such that you have to insert the original disk to make it run... Bleah. Except for the copy protection, I'd say it's a pretty good arcade type game. Anyone know when Beyond Dark Castle will be out, and if it will run on a Mac2? -m- (Mike.Blackwell@rover.ri.cmu.edu)
