Starship Ranger

Your mother planet is under attack by extraterrestrial invaders. Enemy aircraft bomb the Earth. You are the last hope for the human race. The best starship is prepared and well equipped. Your mission is rather complex. The number of ETs is great; they are very dangerous and aggressive but most perilous are their bosses. All your skills and deftness will be necessary to win this intergalactic war. To control your starship you can use the keyboard, mouse or joystick. Don’t forget to fill up using special fuel stations.

Uplink

High tech computer crime and industrial espionage is on the Internet in 2010. You play an Uplink Agent who makes a living by performing jobs for major corporations. Your tasks involve hacking into rival computer systems, stealing research data, sabotaging other companies, laundering money, erasing evidence, or framing innocent people. Use the money you earn to upgrade your computer systems, and to buy new software and tools. As your experience level increases you find more dangerous and profitable missions become available. You can speculate on a fully working stock market (and even influence its outcome). You can modify people's academic or criminal records. You can divert money from bank transfers into your own accounts. You can even take part in the construction of the most deadly computer virus ever designed.
