BATTLECRUISER: If you liked
Warship, you'll like Battlecruiser. This
game contains both World War I and
World War II ships and scenarios for
surface battles in the Atlantic. The
tremendous factor in these games is
the option for scenario building (see
Warship scenarios in this issue). Apple,
Atari, C-64/128 ($59.95). Circle
Reader Service #13.
PHANTASIE III: WRATH OF
NIKADEMUS: This third adventure in
the trilogy leads the party of six adventurers
to their epic encounter with
the evil sorcerer, Nikademus. The documentation
has some new flourishes
("Monster Reputation Table" and an
appendix which describes the differences
between Phantasie I and II and
Phantasie III) and there are now social
classes and skills for each character.
Bows have replaced rocks as the
ranged weapon of choice. In addition,
hits strike actual body locations instead
of representing mere general
damage. Apple, C-64/128 ($39.95).

POWER-PLAY HOCKEY: "Good
play, eh?!" That's what you'll be
telling your friend and teammate when
you play this budget-priced arcade
game. The distinctive factor in this
game is that you and a friend try to
beat the computer instead of each
other. Passing and penalties play more
of a role than other games of this type.

SPECIALIST: This is a truly unique
perspective on the market. If you are
tired of playing economic games where
you are simply making investments,
you will want to challenge yourself
with this simulation of "making a market"
instead of being a victim of it.
The challenge is to keep the stock
which you specialize in functioning
within a fair and orderly market. You
determine what price a stock will trade
at next. In the wake of the Ivan
Boesky scandal, this is a simulation
where the SEC can and does get you.
