You've been abducted and placed in the alien sandbox known as Xebec's Demise, where you have GTA-like freedom of action. How insanely detailed was this game? One player reported that after several years, his character unexpectedly developed scurvy from never having eaten fruit products.</p> <p>Shipped on two 400K disks. Runs on the 512K, Plus, and probably little else. "It did not use the Mac GUI toolbox [...] This is the only commercial program of any kind that I know of, which actually took that route."</p> http://macintoshgarden.org/games/alternate-reality-the-city#comments RPG 1985 1st Person Datasoft Paradise Programming Gary Gilbertson Philip Price Thu, 01 Oct 2009 15:40:27 +0000 Carl 1896 at http://macintoshgarden.org
