Sven Vößing presents another “Retro Hunter” Video-Podcast. Unfortunately it’s in German language only. Usually of interest for every Retro-Fan!
Quote:
Sven Vößing alias Retro Hunter ist wieder zurück. Dieses Mal war er zu Besuch im fernen München und hat die Gamersglobal-Redaktion besucht. Dabei fiel ihm eine antike Software namens Ultima 5 in die Hände, die niemandem mehr zu gehören schien.
20 Jahre kugelt sich Sonic The Hedgehog schon durch die Spielewelt. Grund genug für uns, dem blauen Flitze-Igel nicht nur zu gratulieren, sondern einen Blick auf den Klassiker zu werfen. Und wo es einen Klassiker gibt, da ist die Gurke nicht weit entfernt: Mit Awesome Possum….Kicks Dr. Machino’s Butt, zeigt uns Tengen eine wirklich dreiste Kopie des blauen Igels. Zum Ende der Folge wird wieder ein Fundstück präsentiert, und diesmal könnt ihr auch wieder was gewinnen. Was ihr dafür müsst? Einfach die Frage aus der Folge beantworten.

12 Swap is a cute little match the smiley face puzzle game. It has two distinct modes of play. The first you just select, sit back, and match little smiley faces until the board runs out of selections. If you want to you can get genius with it and plan out how matched smiley faces will better your odds of getting points. Each round in this mode is dependant on how many points you get before you enter the next. As the rounds increase so do the amount of smiley choices. If you can manage to get more then 3 smileys in a row or have multiple matches as the board changes then you will be rewarded considerably more points.
