Great Napoleonic Battles: Some Impressions of the week

January 18, 2006 by Brume

News illustration image Great Napoleonic Battles from the editor Impressions is another rare game from the past... Both original disks of the game were sent by Felx/MJJ Prod (thanks mate!). We packed some bits on them, so the game fits on one disk now. Also an intro has been added in order to select which part of the game must be launched. The intro was coded by Boris from POV, and improved by MSD for us.

Please note you'll have to create your own game before to play. A 'human vs human' mode is also available. Probably not the best game of the year, but all lovers of strategy have to try it.

Of course it can be found on Atari Legend. Where else? Smiley

January 15, 2006 by Marcer

News illustration image Story:
You are four (or less) brave grave robbers who have decided to gather some gold and jewels from King Millius' grave, but as you search it you find constructions that are far older than the grave itself. With some worries you step deep into Mt. Anaias to find out what it is...

- What you waiting for? Smiley

Dungeon Master - The Grave of King Millias

AL is proud to announce Space Ace

January 14, 2006 by Klapauzius

News illustration image After a looooooong delay we finally have managed to bring you one of the most anticipated games still missing in most folks' collections of Atari ST software:

Space Ace by Readysoft

This version is 100% cracked now! If you use a real ST you may copy the disks with FastCopy. Also, we have included some goodies, such as a trainer and "cinema mode" to be able to play through the whole game without having to move a finger. Savegames are even written into a small file now (so no need to waste a whole disk for your those anymore)....

Thanks must go to all the folks in the AL team, who had helped with this release (it hadn't been an easy task ;-) )

Even though this is considered abandonware by most, it is not our intention to dissatisfy the creators. So if anyone has anything against this release, let us know and it will be disabled.

Don't waste any more time, get Space Ace now and enjoy another "lost classic" Smiley

9Lives: Another day, another release

January 13, 2006 by Brume

News illustration image Avenger strikes back and brings you 9 Lives! This time it's a team release!

Now you should wonder why we release this game that was already put on various compilation disks long time ago? According to this thread, the game was just a preview/demo version, not the complete one! Goldrunner (the leader of GameBaseST project) posted a Pasti file of the original version on the forum, so we got finally a full disk of it. Avenger removed the protection, while Mug UK and Klapauzius trained the game. Klapauzius also compiled the whole disk, so here is a definitive release of 9 Lives. It has the sampled tune at the intro, and now the game begins like the Amiga version does.

Another day, another release: the full version of 9 Lives is now available.

Murder: Someone was killed at Ghastley Manor

January 12, 2006 by Brume

News illustration image If you are an addict player, you probably know Murder. The english version of the game has been hacked and spread by Illegal/Empire more than 15 years ago. But you probably don't know that the game was also sold in french language and never hacked before today.

Our great member Avenger brings you now a fully filed/hacked/packed version of the game. The game doesn't request any question at the beginning (compare to the Empire version) and it's filed perfectly. A very good job! Thanks also to Dungeon.Master (another member of AL team) for the original disk of the game.

Maybe it's time for you to download Murder? More rare stuffs will follow!

Random review

I was really excited last month when Orion_, out of nowhere, posted a thread on Atari-Forum announcing his new game would be available for the STe soon. Escape 2042 wasn't coded for the STe specifically. Although the game is created in assembler and it makes use of the enhancements of the machine, it is actually already over 1 year old. It was first released in 2017 for the Sega Megadrive/Genesis, Nintendo Gameboy and the Atari Jaguar. So saying Orion_ is a great coder, seems like an understatement. This guy knows his hardware, that is for sure.

Did you know?

The name "Atari" comes from a move in the ancient game of Go, a favorite of founder Nolan Bushnell.
