ABSTRACT

One unusual aspect of the gameplay is the need to invest in the stock market. B.A.T. is a cyberpunk computer role-playing games (CRPGs), developed by a French team named computer's dream and published by Ubisoft in 1990. The most intriguing aspect of the game is the B.O.B., a “biodirectional organic bioputer.” B.O.B. is a computer that's embedded in the character's arm. B.O.B. monitors the character's condition and translates the language of the many robots and aliens he'll encounter. The Zhodani Conspiracy is certainly an ambitious CRPG, with inordinately sophisticated character creation and development, a massive gameworld, and real-time tactical combat. Space 1889 is a steampunk game set in an alternate universe based on the futuristic writings of early science fiction authors. Whale's Voyage is a 1993 game released for the Commodore Amiga and DOS platforms. It's probably best described as an attempt to blend Starflight and MegaTraveller.
