Lugaru (Loo-GAH-roo) is a third-person action title. The main character, Turner, is an anthropomorphic rebel bunny rabbit with impressive combat skills. In his quest to find those responsible for slaughtering his village, he uncovers a far-reaching conspiracy involving the corrupt leaders of the Rabbit Republic and the starving wolves from a nearby den. Turner takes it upon himself to fight against their plot and save his fellow rabbits from slavery.
Lugaru’s primary feature is its unique combat system. Instead of relying on confusing button combinations to perform moves, Lugaru’s moves are all logical and context sensitive. For example, if an opponent aims a roundhouse kick at Turner’s head, you can crouch and then stand up under the attack to grab your assailant’s leg and kick him away. If you try and punch an opponent and he tries to throw you over his shoulder, you can crouch to roll painlessly out of the throw. This new combat system makes fights look and feel much more intense and believable than in any other game.

Uli Trimpe, an extremely dangerous and brutal smoker, has assaulted the planet of Boot
II and occupied five colonies of the Confederation. Now Agent 4X-019 #Y Codename Combo gets the task to free the colonies by force. He has to hurry, because Trimpe plans to let them celebrate the millennium prematurely. This would cause an immediate armageddon and serious economic losses and thus must be prevented, because otherwise the (female) President could get angry. Actually, the Commander has nothing else to command during his mission but his ego, but that should already be enough. In order to free the colonies he must beat a whopping 50 platform screens. In each regular level you have to reach a ruby to proceed. Sounds easy, but is not. For example, you may need to get some other items first. And naturally there are lots of mean traps and enemies you have to avoid, and the bonus lives won’t pop up when you just need them. And then there are mad bosses like vampires and wannabe-archmages who will annoy you as well. But with some knowledge you can get passwords and won’t have to start over again each time you play.

Orbz is a refreshingly fun action/arcade game like no other. The object of the game is to shoot your orb at star-shaped targets located throughout 14 colorful worlds in a race to score the most points. You will score higher and faster as you explore each new world and learn how to best plan out each shot. Real-world physics affect your shots, accelerators and teleporters allow you to travel great distances, and magnets can attract or repel your orb. The environment affects your orb in other ways too, as shooting out of water slows you down, hitting sand will stop your orb quickly, and skipping across ice causes your orb to slide further than in grass. Eight zany power-ups, like the “Money Shot” and “Curse of the Goober”, are also available to either give you a scoring advantage or to slow down your opponents. In Solo Mode, the player completes a series of progressively difficult challenges that focus on scoring the most points in a variety of scenarios. Bronze, Silver, and Gold medals are awarded for scoring performance and high scores for each challenge are tracked worldwide against all other Orbz players. For every 5 gold medals you earn, you will also unlock a fancy new orb to use in Solo or Online mode. Solo Mode also contains a tutorial that will teach you basic controls and scoring strategies. The Online Mode allows Orbz players to compete against each other over the internet or local area network. Up to 10 players, including computer opponents called Botz, can join a game lobby where the matches are created by selecting the course to play, number of rounds in the match, and a per-round time limit. A worldwide ranking system is also available for those who wish to compete for the ultimate title of Orbz Champion. Simple to learn, but difficult to master, Orbz will give you and your family hours and hours of exciting, nonviolent fun!
