The first is a slots type game. I don’t usually post gambling games; for some reason I have an aversion to them, but as it’s a personal thing here are a couple that I thought you gamblers may like. No reel money (get it, lol) is used when playing, lol.. I’ve also included a roulette table to complete gamblers corner. I was going to add some card games such as black jack, but decided to leave those for another day.</p> <p>You’ll find a great anime platformer called Akuji the Demon as well as a FPS game that’s unusual in that its all in black &#38; white. Finally I added a game called Kaiser, only because it was on the same download page as the roulette table, lol</p> <ul> <blockquote><p>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</p> </blockquote> </ul> <p><strong>Hypervisual Century</strong>: (1.33Mb)</p> <p>Hypervisual Century is a digital slot machine simulator.

The graphics are excellent and the game play flows easily. A game for everyone. There’s an excellent game called Akuji the heartless that was released for the Playstation back in 1998 and is available as a ROM. I will be starting up a ROM section just as soon as I collect my thoughts. As was pointed out to me by wizard, a lot of the ROM downloads that you can easily find on the net are illegal, so I need to tread carefully as I don’t want to be posting anything but genuine freebies. </p> <p>Here’s a review of Akuji the Demon by Kon-Tiki</p> <blockquote><p>Have you ever wondered why, at the end of games, evil is never destroyed, but always gets sealed up? Well, Akuji gives the answer. If they were destroyed, how would they be able to get back out and take revenge?</p> <p>This revenge is what this game is all about. You play as the demon Akuji, who had been terrorizing a land until a hero defeated him, sealed him away and divided his demonic powers into nine balls. The demon set his mind on revenge and has to break out of the dark dungeon he's been sealed in, gathering his lost powers to eventually defeat the hero and regain his true form.</p> <p>The story might sound like it'd promise gore, gloom and guts, but that's far from true. The graphics are bright and colourful, resembling those from old SNES games. The characters are all pretty cute, as if they jumped out of a kid's cartoon. They also provide constant variation, so you'll never get bored of your surroundings. Even within the same areas, there are details that change from room to room, making exploring a feast for the eyes.</p> <p>Akuji's music, on the contrary, is fairly poor. There are two songs that constantly loop, and that's it. Luckily, those two songs stay in the background all the time, so it won't bother you much. In fact, it fills a gap of silence that'd otherwise be disturbing. Sound effects, on the other hand, are perfect for the game and often give clues as to what's happening around you while you can focus on what lays right ahead of you.</p> <p>Gameplay itself is pretty straightforward. All you need are the cursor keys and Z, X and C. C isn't even necessary, as it acts like a Start-button on a console. It'll pause the game and'll give you the choice to either continue, go back to the title screen or quit the game. Z is used for jumping, while X is used for shooting. If you're not happy with these keys, you even have the possibility to reconfigure them to your liking. The rest of the gameplay uses combinations. One power, for example, requires you to jump, then press the Up cursor to change form. All in all, the controls are so simple you could play it with an NES controller and still have one button left unused.</p> <p>In Akuji, there are quite a few things you can collect. There're the nine balls with extra powers, scattered all over the place, which you'll need to collect if you want to get further in the game. Along with these, there are red and jalapeno peppers. The red ones restore one HP, while the jalapeno ones restore all HP. You'll start out with three HP, but there's a way to increase the maximum number of them. This is done by collecting enough mana stones. Below your HP is an indicator that says how many such stones you've collected and how many are needed for the next extra HP. Silver stones will increase this indicator by one, while gold ones increase it by ten. Last but not least, there are seven picture books to collect. They're not necessary to finish the game, but once you've finished it, you'll be able to see some nice concept art as an extra choice under Options from the title screen.</p> <p>A little other extra is that you'll get a rank once you've finished the game, based on the number of mana stones you found and the time it took you to finish the game. At the beginning of a new game, you'll be able to pass a special door if you're rank S or SS. What's behind there is up to you to find out.</p> <p>Akuji The Demon definitely is a fun game that both young and old will love and enjoy. Whenever you feel like playing a game, but don't want to spend entire days on one, or don't want too much gore or brainwork, Akuji'sthe perfect choice</p> </blockquote> <p>Reference: <a href="http://www.reloaded.org/download/Akuji-Demon/77/" rel="nofollow">http://www.reloaded.org/download/Akuji-Demon/77/</a> Accessed 28th Aug 09</p> <p><strong>Video</strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_E08v2tqUEQ" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_E08v2tqUEQ</a></p> <p><strong>Download</strong>:</p> <p><a href="http://www.reloaded.org/download/Akuji-Demon/77/" rel="nofollow">http://www.reloaded.org/download/Akuji-Demon/77/</a> </p> <ul> <blockquote><p>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</p> </blockquote> </ul> <p><strong>Death illustrated</strong>: (25.5Mb)</p> <p>This is an impressive 3D shooter, featuring lots of action. Moving is done with the keyboard and aiming is done with the mouse; it is vital to keep moving and turning around to spot your enemies. The enemies are knight-like creatures, spiders, and other monsters and unhappy people. Some of them will fire at you using very fast projectiles, and some even have weapons that hurt you instantly when fired so make sure to hide or take out these guys quickly. You have several weapons at your disposal (once you've picked up the right ammo) such as the shotgun, the machinegun, and the rocket launcher, familiar weapons if you've played similar games. The game is drawn in black and white, except for some details such as explosions and blood, but this is not a downside; the graphics are really good, with effects such as smoke trails and explosions. The presentation is better than the average game too, with nice voice effects on the title screen and a large number of settings to change if you want to. The game also has heavy music to more than match the action. (<em>You can listen to the songs separately in the Audio part of the Configure menu.</em>)</p> <p>It seems the game has a problem in loading the fourth map (Duel-DI). However you can tell it to start on the fifth map, or any other map, by changing the selection under "Starting Map" in the Settings menu.</p> <p><strong>Controls</strong>:</p> <p>A = strafe left<br /> D = strafe right<br /> W = move forward<br /> S = move backward</p> <p>space = jump</p> <p>mouse = aim<br /> mouse button 1 = fire<br /> mouse button 2 = jump<br /> mouse button 3 = cycle through weapons<br /> mouse button 4 = previous weapon<br /> mouse button 5 = next weapon</p> <p><strong>Download</strong>:</p> <p><a href="http://templeoftherat.com/di/" rel="nofollow">http://templeoftherat.com/di/</a></p> <p>======================================================================= </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/5472#post-57837 Fri, 05 Jun 2009 22:09:12 +0000 g@rgoyle 57837@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Thanks for these Wizzard!<br /> Looks like I have some catching up to do after a few days in hospital.<br /> From what I've seen so far...

I'm very impressed by both of these games and would rate them both as my favorites of the week. The first game is called Gravity Bone and it's an espionage FPS. Gravity Bone was an award winner at gametunnel.com in 2008 winning Best Arthouse Game. Next for today is a game called The Manipulator. The Manipulator is a platform shooter puzzler lol. </p> <p><strong>Gravity Bone</strong></p> <blockquote><p>I’ve just had a quick play through of a rather interesting game. It’s called Gravity Bone, and it’s a very short (two levels) game based on the Quake 2 engine (which isn’t required to play) and focusing on espionage. It uses a brilliantly cubist style that makes up for what the engine can’t handle, and at the same time makes it seem like one big advert from the 50s. It’s kind of how TF2 would look if Valve had gone the whole way. It’s a bit crazy, and I’ve never seen anyone get that… violent over a few pictures.</p> <p>It’s really rather brilliantly made. There’s no start up screen; it throws you straight into the game. The controls are what you’d expect, but in case you are new to games, they’re shown on some wonderful little in-game adverts. There are two levels, each with a rather simple objective, and involve little effort. The second level is by far the longer of the two, and involves some semi-tricky platforming, but apart from that it’s just interesting to play and experience it.</p> <ul>-the reticule.com </ul></blockquote> <p>Real short Trailer:<br /> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qB64eqgzTZ4&#38;feature=related" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qB64eqgzTZ4&#38;feature=related</a></p> <p>Download:<br /> <a href="http://www.blendogames.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.blendogames.com/</a></p> <p>_________________________________________________________________________</p> <p><strong> The Manipulator</strong></p> <blockquote><p>There are people among us who call themselves Manipulators. These Manipulators can take control of your mind and use you. They are a threat to us; we must get rid of them at once! Be alert! Do not trust anybody! This game contains some flashy imagery so epileptics should be warned. </p></blockquote> <p>I found the game to be pretty different. For those of you who may have ever played the game called Gleist on Gamecube, this game is kind of along the same lines. You play a ghost and you manipulate people to reach the end of the game. You can take control of their bodies to help you overcome levels and obstacles. You can use them to kill other enemies, to clear a path for you, or read their minds to gain access to passwords for securities. The controls are as follows:<br /> Arrows to move</p> <p>Z to jump<br /> X to manipulate/shoot<br /> Space to change weapons<br /> Down arrow to kill yourself/enemies<br /> C to read Minds</p> <p>The sound is excellent, and the odd sepia tones of the gamescreen make it eerier. I give this game a very solid 9.5/10 The game is extremely small, but downloads as an exe so you will need to save the file on your computer somewhere easy to remember.</p> <p>Video:<br /> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4G6-8KPVv8" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4G6-8KPVv8</a></p> <p>Download:<br /> <a href="http://www.yoyogames.com/games/show/65645" rel="nofollow">http://www.yoyogames.com/games/show/65645</a> </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/5423#post-57221 Sun, 24 May 2009 16:16:11 +0000 reverseOrder 57221@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>I think the <a href="http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/xoperations.freehostia.com">WoT rating</a> is probably false.

These two are FPS and have VERY high system requirements and are only suitable to run on Vista, sorry guys.

I live in the Land of Fun. I call it LOF for short. There are four spots in LOF that we will use for my games. These spots are in the Drago River, the grassy hillside, on top of Mt. Drache, and in the blue sky of LOF. I will jump from spot to spot, and you can click them with your mouse when we are playing. </p> <p>There are two clouds that are always present in LOF. The one on the left tells you your score when we play games. The one on the right will Start a new game when you click on it. </p> <p>In my favorite tree, there is a knothole (Start Over). By clicking on the knothole, you can start a game over from the first level. If you ever get stuck or want to let someone else play, just click on the knothole. </p> <p>There are two rocks on the grassy hillside. The one labeled Follow will start the Follow The Dragon Game. The one labeled Tag will start the Tag The Dragon Game. You can see which game you are playing by looking at the rocks. The rock with red writing will be the game we are playing. To play the other game, just click on that rock. </p> <p>As you found, you can click the Button in the upper right corner to display this help and registration page. Now let me teach you the rules to my favorite games.<br /> My two favorite games are Follow The Dragon and Tag The Dragon. The rules of how to play each game are below. Read the rules, then let's play! </p> <ul>Follow The Dragon<br /> In this game, I will jump from spot to spot in a particular order, and you have to repeat that order to catch me. I will start level one by going to one spot. If you go to that same spot by clicking it, then you win level one. Then, I will go to two spots. You have to go to those spots (by clicking them) in the same order. If you do, you win level two. I will continue to go to one more spot each level (level 1 = 1 spot, level 2 = 2 spots, level 3 = 3 spots, etc.). As long as you follow me in the same order, you will continue to win and advance to the next level. You can see your score in the cloud on the upper left of the screen. </p> <p>If you get stuck on a level and want to start over, just click the "Start Over" knothole in the tree. That will tell me that you want to start over on level one. </p> <p>Tag The Dragon<br /> In this game, I will appear in one of the spots. You have to catch me (by clicking on me) before I disappear. If you do, I will appear in another spot. Keep catching me before I disappear and I will keep going. The longer you are able to catch me, the faster I will go. If you miss me (by not clicking on me before I disappear), then I escape and win. You can see how many times you have caught me in the cloud on the upper left of the screen. </p> <p>When you can't catch me any longer, click the Start Cloud to play again. </ul></blockquote> <p>Download 2mb:<br /> <a href="http://www.otssoftware.com/Dragon.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://www.otssoftware.com/Dragon.aspx</a></p> <p>___________________________________________________________________</p> <p><strong>Space Fighter X11</strong></p> <blockquote><p>Space Fighter X11 is a 3D, 3rd Person Space Game. Your mission is to investigate rumors of an attack by the Wymacet Horde on one of our glactic exploration stations. Be careful because the Wymacet Horde always travels in large numbers and Red Giant sun in this region makes their ships difficult to see. Use your arrow keys to ascend/descend and your mouse for direction and firing. When you destroy a ship, you are able to pick up it's energy core to add energy or lives to your ship. In addition, the energy rings will provide an energy core when destoyed. However, if you hit them before they are destroyed, they will drain your energy. To win, you must destroy the Horde's mobile star base.</p> </blockquote> <p>Download 22.4mb:<br /> <a href="http://www.otssoftware.com/x11.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://www.otssoftware.com/x11.aspx</a></p> <p>___________________________________________________________________</p> <p><strong>The Crypt</strong></p> <p>I could provide a nice little quote from the developer about the game but I'm not going to on this one.

I was a total DosBox flub-a-dub until I set it up with NC according to Wizz's step-by-step instructs, and now I'm DosBoxing with the rest of 'em! Just tried this one, and both commands work, but I think cdshock is a bit clearer. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4933/page/2#post-52975 Sat, 14 Mar 2009 21:21:28 +0000 Whiterabbit-uk 52975@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Let's get back to answering ringos query please.

They say so themselves in no uncertain terms. System Shock was probably not there before simply because they had not gotten around to putting it up. (You don't see _them_ calling it free anywhere, do you?)</p> <p>If you (or anyone else) wishes to discuess this further, perhaps it is indeed best that we avoid cluttering this thread further and that we take it to PMs. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4933#post-52969 Sat, 14 Mar 2009 19:58:02 +0000 midori 52969@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>And I can see how that peaked your curiosity. But I guess something indeed happened. One of the biggest sites for abandonware released it as free, where before it didn't consider it so; I realized after exploring your comment a bit that no one is "selling" it, and that the company that developed it encouraged fans to download it for free as long as they could keep their servers up, as someone else wanted rights to the name only. A trusted game poster put the abandonia link here for those who were unaware of it. That's what happened. And I do think Looking Glass would smile if they thought some where enjoying their game, which is what they intended. &#38;;-) </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4933#post-52968 Sat, 14 Mar 2009 15:57:46 +0000 Jorpho 52968@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Since people continue to comment, I will add that I came across the link to this thread while browsing the comments of the latest Giveawayoftheday. I was actually kind of curious if something had in fact happened to the legal status of System Shock recently since it was being called 'free'. </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4933#post-52965 Sat, 14 Mar 2009 15:29:15 +0000 notblocklox 52965@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>hmmmmmmmm - sometimes </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4933#post-52961 Sat, 14 Mar 2009 15:14:00 +0000 midori 52961@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Do bagels and cream cheese come with that? &#38;:-d </p> http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/4933#post-52949 Sat, 14 Mar 2009 12:10:03 +0000 Whiterabbit-uk 52949@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ <p>Thanks, lox of many names :) </p>
