  10. Cursed PC!  More than an epithet, A_CURSE is a practical joke program   
  11. that causes the victim's computer to start spouting macabre curses,     
  12. such as, "May a one-eyed pigeon nest in your hard drive!"  "May         
  13. raunchy pitbulls kidnap your spreadsheet!"                              
  14.                                                                         
  15. A_CURSE displays up to ten random curses on your chosen one's           
  16. screen.  Each one is different (with millions of possible               
  17. combinations) and they vary from the absurd to the disgusting.          
  18. What a way to start the day!

  23. This delightful Othello-like game was created as a college class        
  24. project.  Well designed and speedy, it was written in Turbo Pascal.     
  25. Fortunately, the students made the source code available as part of the 
  26. package for those interested in programming.  With four skill levels,   
  27. the game permits up to four players.  Othello devotees will find the    
  28. computer is generally a mite smarter than expected when it comes to     
  29. outflanking their squares.  The game works well on both color and       
  30. monochrome displays.

  35. ASTEROID FIELD BATTLE is a challenging battle against the dreaded       
  36. Electronians within the confines of a computer screen.                  
  37.                                                                         
  38. Your ship is trapped inside an electro-barrier and the Electronians are 
  39. hunting you down.  Your sole defenses are a limited force field, a short
  40. range laser, and several asteroids also trapped in the barrier which can
  41. be used to pick off the enemy ships.                                    
  42.                                                                         
  43. This game can be played with or without a joystick.  There are five     
  44. levels of play, but the speed is CPU clock dependent so faster hardware 
  45. may need to be reset to play.  Beware!  As with any zap'em game, this   
  46. one is highly addictive.
