    Need for Speed II, like its predecessor, allows players to race exotic vehicles in country-themed tracks from North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia against computer-controlled or human opponents via LAN, modem, serial connection, or split-screen. There are three different game modes to choose from: A player selects a car and a course and completes a single race in Single Race mode. The number and kind of opponents, as well as the number of laps to be completed, can all be customized in this mode. In Tournament Mode, the player must successfully finish a series of races in order to unlock a bonus car. The Knockout Mode consists of a series of 2-lap races with 8 opponents; the last-place finisher at the end of each race is eliminated from the competition.
    Eight real-life high-end sports cars and concept cars are available for the user to drive and compete against in the game. Four new cars were included to the game’s “Special Edition” edition. The game also includes a “showcase” that includes images, films, and technical information on the automobiles, as well as the history of each firm and the development of each car.
    In comparison to the previous game, the game has various new features such as changeable car paint and components like gear ratios, tires, and spoilers.

    Game Description

    My Little Pony Friendship Gardens is a My Little Pony video game. It’s a Raising Sim game that was released during the Generation 2 era (1997-2003), in which you raise and care for your own Little Pony. My Little Pony Friendship Gardens is split into two sections: the farm, where you care for your pony, and Pony Village, where you can play games. You can teach her to jump fences, play games with other Ponies, and eventually cross the rainbow to Ponyland along the way. However, don’t let her rainbow fade!

    SimSafari

    Game Description

    Maxis released SimSafari, a construction and management simulation game, on March 19, 1998. It is similar to SimPark, with the exception that the park is set in Africa rather than North America, and thus contains African animals and plants.

    [title] Gameplay

    The game is split into three sections: the nature park, the tourist grounds, and the African village. The ultimate goal is for the player’s park to get five stars, but as with most Sims games, the player can keep playing indefinitely. To earn five stars, the player must ensure that each zone is properly run. The player has control over-tourism and personnel.

    There are several possibilities, including one in which the park is overrun by rabbits and another in which the camp is destroyed by fire.

  • The Game of Life

    The Game of Life

    Game Description

    “When you play The Game of LIFE, you can learn about life!” Many (American) readers will recognize this catchy television jingle from about twenty years ago, which promoted the old board game of the same name. While the only thing you might learn was a bizarre caricature of life based on 1950s stereotypes, The Game of LIFE was certainly one of the children’s/family games that most people of my generation will remember having played on at least a few occasions, alongside games like Sorry! and Clue. Of course, it’s 1998, so it seems almost natural that a computer version would be released. Hasbro Interactive is releasing a number of their board game titles on the computer (including the aforementioned Sorry! and Axis & Allies), and as a result, we can now play The Game of LIFE without having to clean up after ourselves.

    PublishersHasbro Interactive
    DevelopersMass Media
    Release date1998
    GenreStrategy

    [title] Gameplay

    The Game of LIFE is an excellent children’s game because there are only a few decisions to make while playing. Simply spin the spinner and move as many spaces as the spinner indicates. As a result, players are not punished for making bad decisions; rather, they are punished for bad luck. As a result, everyone has roughly an equal chance of winning any given game. As a result, this is a game that children will enjoy playing with their friends or that the entire family will enjoy playing. As a result, I’m not sure how useful a computer version of this game would be. If I were a child old enough to play a game like this, I’d probably do far more interesting things on the computer than play The Game of LIFE 2 online. If I really wanted to play a game like this (again, as a child), I’d rather play the board game and interact with the other players directly, as well as move the pieces myself, rather than focusing on the computer screen.

  • Sonic R

    Sonic R

    Game Description

    Sonic R is a Sega Saturn racing video game released in 1997 by Traveller’s Tales and Sonic Team. It is the third racer in the Sonic Hedgehog series and the first to use 3D computer graphics. The player controls one of ten Sonic characters as they race through various Sonic-themed race tracks in an attempt to stop Doctor Robotnik from stealing the Chaos Emeralds and enslaving the world. Sonic R has both single-player and multiplayer game modes, and while it is similar to kart racing games like Mario Kart, it focuses on jumping and exploration. Players can unlock secret characters by collecting items and completing objectives.

    Development began nine months after the completion of Sonic 3D Blast in 1996. It was Traveller’s Tales and Sonic Team’s second collaboration, and it was designed to take advantage of the Saturn hardware. Sonic Team created the race tracks, while Traveller’s Tales implemented and programmed them using a custom game engine. Richard Jacques composed the soundtrack, and several tracks from the spriters resource sonic r, most notably “Super Sonic Racing,” have been reused in subsequent Sonic games. Sega released the spriters resource sonic r for the Saturn in late 1997, Windows the following year, and the GameCube and PlayStation 2 in 2005 as part of the Sonic Gems Collection.

    Sonic R was Saturn’s only original Sonic title; Sonic 3D Blast is a port of the Mega Drive game, and Sonic Jam is a compilation of the first four Sonic games. The spriters resource sonic r received mixed reviews at first, with a more negative reception later on. It received praise for its visuals and level design, but it was panned for its controls and a short length. Meanwhile, Jacques’ soundtrack divided fans, who either thought it was catchy and well-produced or thought it was out of place in a racing game. Sega would revisit the racing genre in future Sonic games as a result of an interest in Sonic R, leading to the development of titles such as Sonic Riders (2006).

  • Anno 1602

    Anno 1602

    Game Description

    Anno 1602: Creation of a New World, also known as 1602 A.D. in North America, is a 1998 construction and management video game released by Sunflowers Interactive and developed by Max Design. Set in the early modern period, the player must build colonies on small islands while managing resources, exploration, diplomacy, and trade. Anno 1602 design is notable for attempting to implement ‘progressive’ artificial intelligence, which means that the game’s pace changes in response to how quickly players act.

    Anno 1602 was a commercial smash that drew buyers from outside the usual demographic of German computer games, including a sizable proportion of female customers. It was the best-selling computer game in the German market in 1998, and it remained the region’s best-selling game of all time by 2003, with over 1.7 million units sold in German-speaking countries. Anno1602 was less successful in international markets, but by 2004, it had sold over 2.7 million copies worldwide. The Anno series began with Anno 1602, which was followed by Anno 1503, Anno 1701, Anno 1404, Anno 2070, Anno 2205, and Anno 1800.

  • Dune 2000

    Dune 2000

    Game Description

    Dune 2000 is a 1998 Microsoft Windows real-time strategy video game developed by Intelligent Games and published by Westwood Studios. In 1999, it was ported to the PlayStation. It is a remake of Dune II, which is based on Frank Herbert’s Dune universe. The plot is similar to that of Dune II and is continued in Emperor: Battle for Dune. Although Dune 2000 was intended to be a remake of Dune II, the plotline differs significantly and includes references to the execution of Mentat Amon of House Ordos and the replacement of the Harkonnen Mentat from Dune II, Radnor, by Hayt De Vries. A full-motion video is used to tell the story.

    PublishersVirgin Interactive
    DevelopersIntelligent Games, Westwood Studios
    Release date1998
    GenreStrategy

    Gameplay

    The player takes command of one of three Houses and must compete for control of the spiced brew on the planet Arrakis. The player harvests spice in exchange for Solaris,’ the in-game currency, and uses the Solaris to build units to supply their forces. Dune 2000 has an interface and gameplay similar to Command & Conquer: Red Alert, with the exception that, unlike Dune II, the player can control more than one unit at a time.

    Dune 2000 map, like most real-time strategy games, begins with a black fog of war covering the entire map, with the exception of units’ line of sight. As the units move around the map, the fog lifts for the duration of the mission, allowing the player to observe activity in those areas even if no units have a line of sight to them. The player, like in Dune II, can build concrete before placing buildings. All buildings in Dune II deteriorated regardless, but the concrete foundations slowed the process. Buildings in Dune 2000, on the other hand, do not deteriorate over time when constructed entirely of concrete.

    Although each house has many common units, such as infantry, Wind Traps, and Mobile Construction Vehicles, each house has its own set of units, such as the Atreides Sonic Tank, Ordos Deviator, and Harkonnen Devastator. The Trike is shared by Houses Harkonnen and Atreides, while House Ordos has an upgraded version, the Raider. A player can gain access to other Houses’ special units, as in many Westwood games, by capturing an enemy building that can manufacture the desired units. When the Missile Tank is otherwise inaccessible, House Ordos can obtain it by ordering it from the Starport. Following patch 1.06, the Harkonnen will be able to train the Sardaukar, who are soldier-fanatics loyal to the Corrino Emperor.
