Zeek the Geek Part One
|
|
|
|
Zeek the Geek Part One is an introduction to Zeek and the puzzling situations |
|
that he finds himself in. Zeek needs to collect mushrooms for his family, |
|
and you can help him figure out how to get them. You will guide him through |
|
fifteen levels of play, and encounter a number of obstacles along the way. |
|
There are block walls that can't be moved and locked gates that can only be |
|
opened if you find the key. There are boulders to push out of the way, |
|
flowers that eat Geeks, and many other things that may help or hinder Zeek in |
|
getting to the mushrooms. You will have to figure out how to use or avoid the |
|
things you find while you guide Zeek on his way. |
|
|
|
The complete list of things that Zeek will meet in Part One is: |
|
|
|
Walls that do not move. |
|
Yellow barrels that do not move. |
|
Mushrooms that Zeek collects for his family. |
|
Toadstools that are fatal if eaten. |
|
Round yellow boulders that Zeek can push. |
|
Giant apples that Zeek can push. |
|
Yellow flowers that Zeek can pick. |
|
Locked gates. |
|
Keys to the gates. (Zeek can carry only one at a time.) |
|
Purple flower buds that open when a Geek is near. |
|
Purple flowers that eat apples and nearby Geeks. |
|
Magic crystals that disintegrate when brought together. |
|
Dynamite that Zeek can push to destroy most obstacles. |
|
|
|
Although other members of the Zeek family of programs must be purchased, |
|
Zeek the Geek Part One is provided free of charge.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Zeek the Geek Part Two
|
|
|
|
Zeek the Geek Part Two is a continuation of the adventures of Zeek with |
|
thirty all new puzzling situations for you to help Zeek through. Zeek |
|
still needs to collect mushrooms for his family, he will meet all the |
|
same hazards that he found in Zeek the Geek Part One, and he will meet |
|
many new ones, including Piclasops and Atomic Eyes. A Piclasop looks |
|
something like an earthly triceratops, but it is strictly vegetarian. |
|
It can inflict a fatal byte if you get in its way, but it ignores Geeks |
|
when left alone. Atomic Eyes were placed on Zeek's planet by an alien |
|
race that is trying to eliminate the Geeks and eventually take over the |
|
planet. They watch the Geeks, and zap them with a laser blast if they |
|
can get a clear shot at them. |
|
|
|
The complete list of things that Zeek will meet in Part Two is: |
|
|
|
Everything encountered in Part One. |
|
Piclasops that graze on the local vegetation. |
|
Atomic Eyes that zap Geeks when they can. |
|
Blue flowers that are fatal if picked. |
|
Attitude Eggs that change the colors of flowers. |
|
Rotten Apples that are digested slowly by the purple flowers. |
|
Invisibility pills that last for a short time. |
|
|
|
Zeek the Geek Part Two also includes the ability to read in Zeek the Geek |
|
Puzzle Packs. Each Puzzle Pack contains many more puzzles and challenges |
|
for you to help Zeek with.

GAMES FOR DOS: |
|
-------------- |
|
|
|
Sea Battle
|
|
|
|
Sea Battle is Sidewalk Software's version of the age old paper and pencil |
|
game of two navys engaged in battle at sea. You are in control of one navy |
|
and the computer is in control of the other. Each navy has five warships |
|
hidden in a 10 by 10 grid, and each navy shoots into the grid hoping to hit |
|
one of the opposing navy's ships. You, as commander of one navy, will engage |
|
in battle against the computer, and you must try to sink its navy before it |
|
can sink yours. The game is very user friendly, it has easy to use controls, |
|
and it includes context sensitive help in pop-up windows. If you and a friend |
|
have enjoyed playing a paper and pencil version of this game, you'll love the |
|
fun that you can have with the computer version, and your computer is always |
|
ready for another round play.
|
|
|
|
Scramble
|
|
|
|
The game of Scramble contains a set of ten puzzles to be solved, and you |
|
can make more puzzles of your own. Each of the puzzles consists of a set of |
|
numbered or lettered tiles arranged into a pattern or phrase, and the |
|
pattern may contain blank tiles that are frozen in place. The pattern |
|
can be scrambled into a state of disarray by the computer, and your |
|
challenge is to move the tiles back into the proper pattern or phrase. You |
|
can move the tiles only one at a time, and only into an empty spot in the |
|
pattern. Start with a small simple puzzle, and progress to the very |
|
challenging large puzzles.
|
|

|
|
DOS UTILITIES: |
|
-------------- |
|
|
|
Time of Day with Reminder Notes |
|
|
|
Time of Day with Reminder Notes is a DOS utility that displays a friendly |
|
greeting including your name, the time, and date, and it provides a simple |
|
means of displaying date-coded reminder notes when you turn on your computer |
|
or when you request them. Your computer can remind you of holidays, business |
|
meetings, birthdays, etc. You won't forget an appointment again! |
|
|
|
The program comes with reminder notes for all the major holidays, and it |
|
allows you to quickly and easily define your own personalized reminder notes. |
|
You can enter reminders of birthdays and special occasions, and your computer |
|
will display them to you on the date(s) that you specify. You will get the |
