Year: 1989 Lucasfilm
Genre: Brain - Puzzle
Lang: English(US)
Disks: 1
Versin: Commercial, OCS, NTSC, WHD
Description:
Each level of this abstract puzzler challenges the player to set up a
network of pipes to allow an unspecified substance known as 'flooz' to
flow through as many of those as possible. The pieces are offered in
random order, and there are seven different types - straight lines
going horizontally or vertically, corners rotating in each of the four
directions, and cross-over pieces which carry the flooz straight across
horizontally and vertically. Each of these can be entered from either
side. When the flooz hits a gap, or a piece which the previous piece
can't flow into, the pipe is finished.

Genre: Brain - Puzzle
Lang: English

version: Commercial, ST, joy port 2
Description:
Before the flooz starts flowing from its randomly-selected starting position,
the player has several seconds to start placing pieces. They can be put down
anywhere. However a situation that can often occur is there will be a long and
complex piping arrangement set up, yet a gap somewhere remains to be filled.
Players are able to replace a piece with another in the same square (to make
it easier to flow the flooz that way), but for a slight scoring penalty.

Genre: Brain - Puzzle
Lang: English
Disks: 1
Version: Commercial, key
Description:
This is a marvellous puzzle game where you piece together random sections
of pipes on a board to allow the slime to flow through it. If it doesn't flow through
enough sections on each level, the game is over! There are also bonus levels where instead
of placing pipes on a board, you drop them from the sky, Tetris-style. The graphics
do their job - they don't have to be awesome for this type of game - but there's no music
and few sound effects. Even so, this is a great game which is made even better by a password
for every five levels so you don't have to go through the earlier levels every time.

Description:
A very addictive puzzle game, Pipe Mania is the European release of LucasFilm's
original Pipe Dreams. The game idea wasn't new when it came out, but Pipe Mania
executes the lay-random-tiles-to-form-a-pipe principle very well, and improves
upon LucasFilm's version with better graphics and music.

Titolo originale:Piracy on the High Seas
Year: 1992 I.C.E.
Genre: Strategy - Misc
Lang: English
Disks: 3
Version: Commercial, OCS, PAL
Description:
he game of Piracy deals with a period in the planets history when Evil
Forces have permeated the structure of their civilisation and threaten its
future stability. The people are beset by Pirates and evil monsters bent
upon the destruction of all that is good. Still alive in the peoples deep
subconscious, however, and handed down from generation to generation in
myths and legends, is the memory of a time of peace, prosperity and justice
for all. In those halcyon days, almost beyond memory, a benign government
ruled the land from the Halls of Balance. The power of this authority was
derived from their possession of the Golden Chalice of Balance given to the
people at the beginning of time and housed in the Halls of Balance. The
disappearance of the Chalice from the Halls of Balance marked the return of
the Powers of Evil into the land. Through this game you are about to enter
this terrifying world where your main objective is to find the Golden
Chalice and return it to its rightful place in the Halls of Balance,
thereby restoring peace to the land. Your quest for the Golden Chalice
will take you into the atmosphere of the old 'Spanish Main', where many of
the Islands in the West Indies harbored the lairs of ruthless and bloody
pirates. These men recognise no law but the slash of a cutlass and the
threat of their pistols.

Titolo originale:Pirates!
Year: 1990 MicroProse
Genre: Strategy - Misc
Lang: English
Disks: 2
Version: Commercial, OCS, PAL, WHD
description:
It was an era of new kings and empires, of new tests of strength and power. It
was a day when a man could rise from humble beginnings and be knighted for
brave and daring service to the Crown. Now you can be such a man in PIRATES!,
a game of hot-blooded swashbuckling across the Spanish Main.
You are transported to the Caribbean as it was in the heyday of smugglers,
privateers, buccaneers and pirates. All the skills real men needed for survival
and success are present, in real-time action!
In PIRATES! you navigate the wide Caribbean by guess, compass, and
occasional sun sights with your astrolabe. In peace or battle, your sailing
skill can spell the difference between a profitable journey and a watery grave.
And if it comes to battle, you must do what real buccaneer Captains did - lead
your men from the front, sword in hand, until you meet and defeat the enemy
commander. This is a new type of game, an action simulation. Your game
activities are based on how men actually did them, such as sailing ships and
dueling with swords.
The Caribbean is a canvas of grand adventure, from the treasure-laden
ambushes of Sir Francis Drake to the piratical plunderings of the notorious
Henry Morgan (whose name still graces a brand of Jamaican rum). Like these men,
you can discuss politics with provincial governors, sneak into towns for
clandestine smuggling arrangements with local merchants, cross swords with
vicious noblemen of all nationalities, rescue helpless waifs from vile slave
plantations, even find a beautiful wife! When you accumulate sufficient
treasure, land, honors, and satisfaction, you can take a pleasant retirement
appropriate to your gains.
PIRATES! brings alive the grand scope of a venturesome and bygone age. As in
every MicroProse simulation, extensive research into the details of places and
people, ships and battles brings you unparalleled realism. PIRATES! goes beyond
simple fantasy and touches the reality of an exciting page in history.
