 The Powerdrome racing series is now into its 24th year of high-speed high-octane action. Why race on flat 2D circuits when you can charge through a multi-textured half-pipe in small aircraft? Typhoon Racing have taken up the challenge, and entered you in their machine.

There are 6 different circuits, with hazards including chicanes, tunnels and crusher gates. Shading to the sections marks out whether a corner or dive is coming up. There are 5 computer opponents to race against in one player mode, while a data link cable allows 2-player games.

Each planet has its own atmosphere, and your machine's filters will need to be set to take account of this. Rain on some circuits necessitates a pitstop for a changeover. You are armed with afterburners, which can provide a speed use in open air but should not be overused. The Amiga version allows you to adjust the sensitivity of the controls - either way, joystick is easier to use but mouse is seen as ultimately being faster.

 The time has come for the Gouketsuji clan to celebrate their fighting tournament. Every 5 years the clan (which has spread all over the world) celebrates a one-on-one fighting tournament to see which family gets to rule and now you get to take part in the contest.

Power Instinct is a one-on-one 2D fighting game in the tradition of Street Fighter 2, in which you select your character from a group of unique fighters and attempt to defeat your opponents in successive fashion using your arcade reflexes and your character's unique moves.

Features 8 selectable characters, plus a boss character, and single or 2-player Vs gameplay. Also includes a practice mode, battle mode and time attack and life attack modes for extended gameplay.

Otane, the winner of the last Gouketsuji clan tournament has mysteriously disappeared, and thus the tournament to decide who gets to take control over the Gouketsuji clan has been hastily re-scheduled. Once again the different families spread all over the world send their finest fighters to determine who will rule the clan for the next years in a one-on-one fighting tournament.

Gouketsuji Ichizoku 2 is the sequel to Power Instinct. It is a 2D one-on-one fighting game in which you take your pick from the available characters and attempt to defeat all other opponents in combat for the title of ruler of the Gouketsuji clan.

The sequel features improved graphics and music (taking advantage of CD audio), new characters and additional gameplay mechanics, such as a power bar that gets charged as you perform special moves and allows you to unleash "super" moves as well as increase your speed and strength for a few moments. The game features a 1P single player arcade mode, 2P Vs mode and tag-team variations of both which allow you to control a team of 2 characters.

 PowerMonger takes the basic design and concepts of Bullfrog's previous game Populous, and places it in a war context. The game cast the player as a dispossessed warlord plundering his way through 195 territories on the way to world conquest. Several other leaders have the same goal.

The gameworld is now made up of polygons, so the view can be rotated and moved with greater freedom than Populous. Trade, diplomacy, inventions, and scorched earth invasions all play a key role in how the player progresses through the game. Two-player games via modem links are available on computer versions.
