Zack's "Ye olde 68k games" conquests
I'm sure some of you have seen my games thread in the Trading Post (aka "I will buy your 68k mac games!") but I wanted to start a section here to help me keep track of the 68k games that were a huge part of my first Macintosh experience.
I've recently moved and hopefully will be pulling out the collection and getting more organized so I can add to this.
But I'm going to start with my most recent conquest, and the one that's been the hardest to find - an original boxed copy of Airborne! which put Silicon Beach Software on the map.
Jonathan Gay who programmed this went on to create Dark Castle I & II before he build the company that invented Flash and sold it to Macromedia, then Adobe.

Awesome!!
Very cool. Having gotten my own personal copies of Dark Castle and Beyond Dark Castle, my Holy Grail of Mac games has shifted to a boxed copy of Warlock.
For Apple IIe, I still would dearly love to get my mittens on Conan, Akalbaeth, and Ultima II.
