Classic BASIC Games

Platform: PC
April 2, 2002
Welcome to my collection of classic BASIC games! Each game included in this collection is an original, un-cut classic game from the '70s and early '80s. Although these versions are TRS-80 versions, they are very similar, if not identical, to versions for other computers of the day (Apple II, PDP-11, etc.) Included in the package are games I wrote between 1978 and 1983 (high school). But the more interesting stuff is in the other folders. These are classic games, written by others. Games like Hamurabi, Elisa, Super Star Trek, Life, Wumpus, Bio Rythm, Towers of Hanoi, Lunar Lander, etc.

Travel back in time to one of the most important battles in Chinese history with this sequel to "Fate of the Dragon." The Battle of Red Cliffs was regarded as a great milestone in the Three Kingdoms period. In July, 208 AD, after pacifying the north, General Cao Cao mustered his troops and headed south with the intent of unifying the realm. After a series of quick victories Cao Cao had become so arrogant that he completely underestimated his rivals Sun Quan and Liu Bei, and failed to take advantage this precious opportunity to unify the realm. On the contrary, he suffered a huge defeat even though his crack forces greatly outnumbered the opposing forces. After the Battle of Red Cliffs, the division of the realm into three parts began to take shape. [Strategy First]
