Posted: Sun May 20, 2018 12:01 pm
As promised, a new batch of MIAs
Not only Russian ones this time, but generally Eastern Europe. Mainly for connoiseurs
1. Rubik Cube
Alias (Russian name): Kubik Rubika
Genre: Puzzle
Author: Alone Coder https://spectrumcomputing.co.uk/index.p ... bel_id=768
(yes, the same man who wrote Wolfenstein for Zx Spectrum)
Country: Russia
Language: Russian
Year: 1999 (found in some info file that I don't attach)
It's an isometric implementation of Rubik cube with nice animations of turning. Try it, the keys for diffent turns are visible on the screen. But the main problem is it being monochrome with colours replaced by different gradients of black and white. Maybe someone would be able to play it but not me, it looks all the same and is totally confusing.
2. Helespont
Czech board/logical game. I didn't went much into understanding it's rules but I believe it's something about replacing the white and black pawns on their positions
Genre: Board game.
Publisher: Amisin https://spectrumcomputing.co.uk/index.p ... bel_id=821
Country: Czech Republic
Language: Czech
Year: 1984
3. Lion
A simple attempt, in probably some complied Basic to make an arcade adventure game in some Asian kung fu related climate. The keys are Z,X,Enter
Alias: Lion. The revenge (or maybe it should be the proper name???)
Genre: Arcade adventure
Publisher: AC Soft (I hope I get it right from loading screen)
Author: Eugene Cherepanov
Country: Russia
Language: Russian, Englishh
Year: unknown (199x for sure)
4. Zycie maklera
It's probably an adaptation of some British Basic listing to a Polish game. In this version it was translated, music and custom font were added. I would say it's enough to call it a mod not a crack but please make your choice
Would be great if somebody knew the original. It's an econimical simulation about managing a mine. Miners can go on strike etc.
Genre: Strategy game:Managememt
Publisher IKS (it was a Polish computer magazine, the info is in the game as REM instructions in the Basic listing)
Authors (of mod): P.Waskiewicz, M.Bydlon
Country: Poland
Language: Polish
Year:1989
