Apeiron
by Ambrosia Software
Apeiron (pronounced "App©Huron"), is centipede (the arcade
classic) on steroids! You battle numerous baddies including
pentipedes, a gecko, an anomalous flying saucer and the
dreaded Scobster (half scorpion & half lobster)! The best
part is the yummies which give you, among other things,
rapid©fire shooting, temporary invincibility and guided
shots!
***Hot Tip: The Scobster can not change directions
horizontally©©once you get past him you're home free! (Until
the next one shows up that is).
***Note: Our software installer will put a copy of the
Apeiron Installer on your hard disk. Double©click on it to
install Apeiron and then delete the Installer afterwards.

suited to High School students with at least one semester of
calculus. Included are concise explanations followed by
brief exercises (answers are included). Take the anxiety out
of calculus!
Colors & Objects
by Daniel Chen
Here's a fat binary application (includes extra code for
Power Macs) that will entertain the three and under crowd.
Pressing keys or the mouse button draws shapes, letters or
numbers on the screen in color. Turn on sounds for extra
fun! If you have Apple's Speech Manager, you can even choose
a voice to speak the name of the letter, number or shape.
There's nothing quite like hearing the "hysterical" voice
speaking shape names!
Stack
by Dmitri Lemmerman
One of the best educational Hypercard stacks we've ever
seen! This stack explains the structure and function of DNA.
Your host, Mr. Molecule, starts with its discovery and, in
increasing complexity, continues through the chemical
structure and action of this building block of life.

Koji the Frog
by SlimyFrog Software (Marco Carra)
You'll laugh as Koji the Frog gets eaten by a snake and
dynamited by a grumpy gopher! You'll marvel at the fast,
colorful graphics and multichannel sound! You'll roll on the floor as poor Koji gets struck by
lightning and hit by cars! You'll love this game! (We
promise).
>Hot tip: Keep moving, but stay away from the sides!
Platforms
by Tucker Roth & George Lewis
Platforms is an update of the the arcade classic "Qix"
wherein you stake off territory while avoiding a fast moving
nastie. If the nastie hits you or the line you're drawing,
you're dust! Fun and fast©moving with great color graphics.
Hot tip: Draw elongated shapes pointing towards the
center of the board until the nastie commits to one side or
another then fence him in!
FreezeTag PPC
by Young Harvill
This game is a bonus for all you Power Mac owners! You'll
love the fantastic 3D graphics in this fully©rendered game!
The object is to "tag" the three ladybugs so they turn into
blocks of ice, but watch the remaining bugs or they'll tag
their compatriots and unfreeze them!
Hot tip: Use the keyboard instead of the mouse and use
these extra keys: The shift key gives you a speed boost,
option lets you jump and control starts a new level (after
all three ladybugs are frozen).
(PowerMac only) Game
