Darwinia


The world of Darwinia is a virtual theme park, running inside a computer network built by a computer genius named Dr. Sepulveda. Darwinia is populated by sentient, evolving life forms called the Darwinians. They are the product of a decade's worth of research into genetic algorithms. Unfortunately, the systems of Darwinia have been overrun by an evil red Viral Infection. This Virus has multiplied out of control and must be stopped. Your task is to destroy the Viral Infection and save the Darwinians from extinction. Darwinia, an explosive real-time strategy with a twist, will remind you of the intensity of yesteryear's games, and leave you yearning for more retro blasting action.

Defcon


Introversion Software presents Defcon, a stunning multiplayer simulation of global thermonuclear war. Take on the role of a General hidden deep within an underground bunker. Compete against the computer or online against your friends for total world domination. Start by launching battleships, subs and bombers in order to decimate your opponents' defenses. Scramble together your alliances — but remember only one can stand victorious. Prepare your preemptive strike before one of your supposed allies gets the same idea. Choose the perfect moment to obliterate your opponents with an apocalyptic thermonuclear barrage — but get it wrong, and their devastating counter attack will bring you to your knees! It's Global Thermonuclear War, and nobody wins. But maybe - just maybe - you can lose the least.

This world was called Darwinia and it was inhabited by a peaceful, law-abiding digital life-form called the Darwinians. As the years wore on the Darwinians became more aggressive. They divided into factions, squabbling over Darwinia’s limited natural resources.
