The Fun! Factory: Games

Please note that most of the games written specifically for the 100LX and 200LX are not listed here. You can find information on them, as well as download them, at S.U.P.E.R. If you wish to view only the games category, just click here!

Any game titles in red indicate that I was unable to get the game to run on the palmtop. Don't forget that any information you have is of value - see the Submit page for more details!

Barbarian
Info		This was the European title for Death Sword.
Thanks to Laust Brock-Nannestad for this information!

Beetlejuice
Info		Works on 200LX.

Runs on 95LX?		No
Thanks to Luigi for this information!

Bit-Bat
Info		This is a Space Invaders-style game which unfortunately uses key combinations that are completely impractical on the LX (Ins for left, Del to move right). Also, it ran too fast on my double-speed palmtop so may well need slowing down.

Blasten Game
Info		An Asteroids clone, this game will most likely need slowing down on your machine to make it playable. Unfortunately, I didn't think that much of the gameplay; the ship is a little slow and cumbersome which doesn't help when in the middle of an asteroid field. There are better Asteroids clones available - but not too many for the LX, however, so you might as well see if you like it!

Blockade
Info		A "Light Cycles" style of game, where the object is to control as much territory as possible, without crashing into the side wall, or an opponent. Up to two human players can play, with up to six players in total (the remaining players being controlled by the computer).

Bluebush Chess
Info		This is, believe it or not, a game of chess. The one and only feature which stands out is the play-by-mail option, which is an interesting addition. Graphics-wise it's fairly standard, with large, easy-to-see pieces. Unfortunately, I'm not a good chess player, so I can't comment on just how much of a challenge the computer player will provide! Useful notes (courtesy of Longden Loo): You just start the program (I have it running in 90k) and the rest is somewhat self-explanatory, except the exit. I believe the version I got was hacked for the LX computer ... the original might have required a system reboot in order to terminate it, but this version exits using the "/" key from the main screen (where it shows "D - demonstration game"). I remember some discussion of this fact a LONG time ago. You may need to invert the screen colors.

Thank you to Longden Loo for the information on this game

Bowling Champ
Info		Very simple, this one. This is a text-based bowling game where you can compete against up to three other players, testing both your reflexes and nerves! Although this is about a simple a game as you're going to get, with other people to play against, this is actually great fun!
Screenshot		Bowling is all about nerves!

Runs on 95LX?		Yes, but problems will occur because of the smaller screen

Bruce Lee
Info		I couldn't get past the opening menu, unfortunately - the only option which worked was the one to exit the game!
Status		Commercial software, by Datasoft (programmed by Sheng-Chung Liu)
Runs on 95LX?		No

Buck Rogers: Planet of Zoom
Info		If anyone can work this one out, I'd be very grateful if they would let me know as it looks like a good game. Unfortunately, when in the game, no keys seem to work; possibly this game only works with a joystick.
Status		Commercial software, by Sega
Runs on 95LX?		No

Budokan
Info		Could you imagine trying to fight Kendo, Karate, Bo or Nunchaku on a 200LX? [Mike's note: This is a side-scrolling fighting game]
Status		Commercial software, by Electronic Arts
Runs on 95LX?		No
Thanks to Luigi for this information!

Bushido
Info		This is a fighting game similar to something like Street Fighter or Mortal Combat. The graphics are very clear on the palmtop, and the game is pretty fast and responsive. The only problem with the game is that you are limited to just a kick, punch, and jump, which makes the game very difficult.
