Bots 'n' Scouts Enno Brehm,Miriam Busch,Daniel Holtz,Dirk Materlik www 0.8.2 Program a robot to move around a factory and pick up flags Bots'n'Scouts is inspired by the Wizards of the Coast game "RoboRally". You are assigned a robot in a factory, which you program with 5 moves each round. The robot may not complete the moves exactly as you intended; it may be pushed, moved by conveyor belts, or even destroyed. Your task is to make the robot touch all the flags in the factory, in order, before any other robot does. <p> There are many differences between RoboRally and Bots'n'Scouts. For instance, Bots'n'Scouts doesn't have the weapon and upgrade cards available in RoboRally. And RoboRally isn't an online multiplayer network game, but a physical board game. strategy free img on on off off on on 2003-01-11 2 2003-01-11 19:30:12 2 www Java runtime 1.2 or better 2003-01-12 12:05:01 off
Boulder Dash Miroslav Zagorac www 1.0-b6 Boulder Dash clone game. Boulder Dash is the clone of the old game from eight bit microcomputers (such as ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64, Atari 800). The game was written for Linux and uses either svgalib or X11R5/R6, but it can be compiled on a real Unix (Solaris, OSF, etc.) as well. The graphics are identical with the one on Spectrum or C64. A level editor is also provided. This version has 300 levels from the original game and there can be more than 2000 levels. <p> The homepage has been replaced by a cease and desist order from some corporate slimeball. :( mia free img on on on off off off 1998-12-03 bobz 1998-12-03 20:56:46 233 www 2002-08-16 13:38:10 off
Boulderdash (BD4) Paul Williams www 7.10 A networked Boulderdash clone. <p>Here's a rather good Boulderdash clone, with a net-wide highscore list and even a Java version (I played the X version). It needs to make a network connection to the server in order to retrieve the levels. There's even a teamwork mode which I haven't tried. arcade free img on on off off on on 1998-09-01 bobz 1998-11-02 00:00:00 14 www 2007-03-20 10:01:37 on

BOXit Frank Hollwitz www 2.0.0 A small logic game. BOXit is a small logic game for your lunchbreak. It is one of these easy to learn but hard to handle games. So if you like puzzles then BOXit is your game.<br> In this game it is your job to clear the playing field as much as possible. You do this by dragging one another pieces with the same color or value. But this works only if the target piece is at the same row or column as the dragged piece. You drag a piece by clicking on it with the left mousebutton, hold the mousebutton down and move the cursor to an other piece. Look at the cursor to see whether a move is possible or not. If the cursor is over your target piece then release the mousebutton to drop the piece. If a move is possible then the dragged piece replaces the piece it droped of. The game ends if no more possible moves left. mia free img on on off off off off 2003-11-15 3 2003-11-17 06:47:18 -1 www Java Runtime Environment 1.4.2 or better is required. 2005-03-03 00:29:52 on
