December 23, 2018 by Brume

News illustration image Just one day before xmas eve, here is another release. This time we offer you a rare game named Midway Battles published by TDC Distributors. Game was officially ported from 8 bit machines, but wasn't spread very well. Until now.

The great intro was coded by Tronic of Elite with setup routines by Bod of Effect.

December 22, 2018 by Brume

News illustration image Wow! Just a few minutes before midnight, here is our new gift. This time, CB presents you Wizard's Crown by SSI. The game has been Falcon 030 + installation fixed. Also please note this is the English version.

Another rare disk unearthed on the 21st day of our Advent

December 21, 2018 by muguk

News illustration image Back in the day, there were quite a few Awesome menus and one of our team has unearthed another one that didn't see the light of day. Awesome Menu 31 is now available!


The menu contains what looks to be a horse racing game, a clay pigeon type shooting game and some WIP game engine work by Ghost/Phalanx (we think?).

Download the disk here.

Release #20 .. OK, we found some more Infocom games!

December 20, 2018 by muguk

News illustration image Down the back of CB's sofa we found the last two Gold Edition titles: Leather Goddesses of Phobos and Planetfall.
We promise that this is the last of the text adventures from Infocom.

LGoP was Infocom's first "sex farce" and featured selectable "naughtiness" levels ranging from "tame" to "lewd" and Planetfall has you playing the starring role of a lowly Ensign Seventh Class on the S.P.S. Feinstein. Have fun with either release and, because they are the Gold Editions, there are built-in Invisiclues in case you get stuck!

You can download both games in this single file.

Release day #19: Fashion Chipmusic Editor v1.1

December 19, 2018 by muguk

News illustration image Just in case you only thought we were going to offer you yet another Infocom game, here's a special curveball that Brume found and preserved: Fashion's Chipmusic Editor v1.1.

Suffice to say that this was thought to be lost and was probably rarer than hen's teeth, until today!

The editor comes with a single music track for you to load in called 'Rebels'. A quick hint: close the Disk Op window in order to start the track playing.

Download this rare gem here.

Now go and get composing some tunes!

Day 18 : Wishbringer

December 18, 2018 by ST Graveyard

News illustration image We continue once more with another Infocom title. Today we bring you Wishbringer. Grab the download here.

From Wikipedia : Wishbringer: The Magick Stone of Dreams is an interactive fiction computer game written by Brian Moriarty and published by Infocom in 1985. It was intended to be an easier game to solve than the typical Infocom release and provide a good introduction to interactive fiction for inexperienced players, and was very well received.

Did you know?

In the mid 80's Atari was approached by a company called Nintendo. They asked if Atari was interested in distributing their new 8 bit system. At that time, Jack Tramiel was head of the Atari company. He declined the offer, saying Atari wanted to stop releasing consoles and focus on personal computers instead! So in the end, Nintendo had to distribute the consoles themselves ... In just a few months, they wiped Atari from the throne!
