Reviews

Game Title Publisher Reviewer Pages Pg No(s) Rating
Immercenary Electronic Arts N/A 2 Page Review 76-77 53%
Battlechess Interplay N/A Long Article 84 62%
  • Immercenary - You're thrown into what is supposed to be a virtual enviroment, and then left to collect power-ups and blast everybody in sight. The gameplay, despite some nice graphical touches, is more than monotonous.
  • Battlechess - Yet another golden oldie appears on a "future machine". This is just a chess game with a bit of music and some pretty naff animations.
