== Description from the packaging. ==

Mindscape's Educational Division combines a tradition of educational experience with a dedication to meeting today's demand for new approaches to education. The result is innovative software for schools and homes that fully utilizes the computer to make serious learning rewarding for students.

Brainstorms is a collection of thirteen clever, challenging learning games that motivate students to sharpen their critical thinking and problem solving skills. The games are fun, but they also help expand vocabulary, mathematical and discrimination skills.

Zap<br>
In this game, designed for two players, youngsters try to force their opponent to remove the last block from a standard pyramid of blocks. Players are given lots of practice in using strategy and planning ahead.

Graminoes<br>
Students sharpen their vocabulary and word attack skills by blending word parts to form correct words.

Crossnot<br>
Youngsters get lots of practice in plotting points on a grid in an effort to place geometric shapes without overlapping them! This game provides practice in a skill often tested in many intelligence tests- spatial relations and part/whole relationships.

Havafit<br>
Havafit is an extension of Crossnot. Students expand their imagery skills by placing shapes on a grid but, here, they can rotate them in one of four directions to fit. The goal is for the player to plan so that the last placement leaves no room for an opponent's piece.

Duzzit<br>
In this game, a secret word is hidden among a list of 40 words. The player must guess the word using as few hints as possible. Duzzit is an enjoyable way to sharpen deductive reasoning skills while building vocabulary.

Izzit<br>
Izzit provides practive in hypothesis formation and application of numerical rules as students try to guess a secret number. Hints following each incorrect guess will aid students in narrowing down the possibilities.

Amagrams345<br>
Youngsters vie at being the first player to unscramble a series of letters to form a word. Word lengths are variable and students have the opportunity to change a letter. Word attack skills, as well as dictionary skills will be challenged here!

Solvit<br>
In this game students must apply mathematical rules to a series of numbers. How does this given set of numbers produce a formula to equal a given answer? Students practice addition, subtraction and multiplication facts while exploring possible solutions.

Roadmap<br>
Students can take many paths to reach the end but they must find one that equals the correct solution! Played against a timer, students must not only add a series of numbers accurately but also quickly!

Boxword<br>
Players challenge each other to form the first word from adjacent letters that they've placed on a 4x4 grid.

Delta9<br>
Youngsters attempt to outsmart their opponent and be the first player to complete five triangles.

Faces<br>
A delightful game to practice deductive reasoning skills and pattern identification. By guessing from a choice of five facial features, students try to create a secret face.

Changers<br>
A vocabulary game in which players add, subtract or change a letter to form new words.

Brainstorms contains an extensive variety of activities that can be used Dr an entire class or to challenge brighter students. It is an ideal way to motivate students who complete their regular assignments with time to spare. The games are so much fun that youngsters don't realize that they re learning.

It is designed for grades 4-7. Scores are saved for Duzzit, Izzit, Faces, Roadmap (1-player version) and Solvit (1-player version).

== Description from the packaging. ==

'''BLOCK BUSTER''' is a computer program that can help you solve that famous cube puzzle. '''BLOCK BUSTER''' significantly extends the capabilities of physical
cubes because it adds these features:

* You can see all six sides of the cube at once, thanks to '''BLOCK BUSTER's''' "exploded view".
* Your moves are recorded in a special notation, allowing you to document and repeat a successful series of moves.
* You can program a sequence of moves which can then be invoked by a single command.
* You can instantly reset the cube to its solved state at any time.
* You can ask the computer to finish solving the cube tor you.
* You can set up a specific cube pattern.
* The computer keeps track of the time and the number of moves it takes you to solve the cube.

'''BLOCK BUSTER''' allows you to manipulate the cube using either a paddle controller or the keyboard. Join with your friends In solving the cube or get a competition going. Competitions are easy because the cube can always be preset to the same "scrambled" position, and the computer keeps track of the elapsed time.

'''BLOCK BUSTER''' comes with substantial documentation, over half of which is devoted to cube solving theory- explaining how the computer goes about solving the cube.

'''BLOCK BUSTER''' is not just a game. It is also an exercise in logical problem solving. But the programmers have combined their problem solving expertise with a
delightful use of the Atari's sound and color graphics, resulting In a program that will fascinate everyone!

== Description from the packaging. ==

Corps Level Command in World War II is a recreation of land battles from the Second World War.

Four separate scenarios are included and easy-to-use design kit. The scenarios are Crete (1941). Stalingrad (1942). Saipan (1944) and Bastaogne (1944-5). Each commander can control a force as large as an army corps: up to 60 battalions distributed or both divisions. The computer can direct either or both commands, allowing for an exciting face-to-face contest with a friend, challenging solitaire play and/or extensive historical analysis.

A complete range of unit types is provided including, among others, infantry (foot, motorized and mechanized), armor, anti-tank, artillery, engineer, parachute and marine battalions. The game mechanics will simulate meeting engagements, mobile defense operations, set-piece assaults, amphibious and airborne invasions in any combination.

Unit strengths and types, types and difficulty of terrain, effects of roads, cities and forts are all software controllable. A complete and accurate battle environment can be built up to recreate each scenario.

Off-board air and naval support, air superiority, weather, supply, fatigue and combat experience are all included.

Your role as the corps commander is to direct the divisional and regimental HQs of your force by assigning an order from the appropriate action menu. The actual movement of battalions and the resolution of any conflict is handled by the computer.

The strategic and tactical decision making is up to you. How well your men execute your orders will be a true test of how well you have commanded them.

== Description from the packaging. ==

Your job is simple enough, just guard the supplies on the lunar supply base. Sounds easy, huh? Well, wake up and have some coffee, partner! The name of this game is Bandits, remember? Surely you don't think you're going to stand around and scare off an occasional shop lifter. You see, every criminal in space is after your supplies and each has a uniquely devious method of trying to get them. For instance, the Phalanxes will come after you with heat-seeking bullets. The Torrents use napalm bombs to blow you away. And then, there are the Carriers that'll drag bouncing Nuisants on you in an effort to send you to an early retirement.

Armed with a mobile laser gun and protected by a limited amount of shield energy, you score by blasting these greedy galactic pickpockets into cosmic dust. The more of them you blast, the higher your score, but the quicker the Bandits attack. Get ready for some non-stop action.

== Description from the packaging. ==

Help Allen, the mailboy, on his rise up the corporate elevator!

Memorandum

To: Allen, my nephew.

From: The Boss

Here's what I'm going to do... I'll start you out as a trainee in the Mail Room. One of the most important jobs in the corporate structure, my boy. The mail must be delivered! If you do a good job (and don't play around with my secretary, Arlene) you may get promoted to my two other buildings.

One word of warning. My cousin-in-law, Bobby, has been known to steal the mail. We jokingly refer to him as the "Corporate Spy." If he wasn't related to my wife I would have fired him long ago- but he's harmless. Just be on the watch and catch him before he gets away with the mail!

Good luck Allen. I know you can handle the job.

D.G.<br>
The Boss

P.S. My dog, Fear, might get in your way once in awhile. Just jump over him. He means well.

== Description from the packaging. ==

A strategy game of America's National Pastime.

The day Babe Ruth faced Fernando Valenzuela.

Impossible, you say. Not if you're playing Computer Baseball. It lets you create- and manage- any team you like, imaginary or real, past or present.

Imagination run wild. Now you can field a team made up of such legends as Babe Ruth, Willie Mays and Sandy Koufax against a star-studded team of Hank Aaron, George Brett and Fernando Valenzuela.

Ah, baseball heaven!

All you have to do is enter the batting and pitching statistics and fielding and running abilities of the players you want. Data disks of player stats are available separately.

For all, you historical buffs, the data for over 20 great past and present major league teams are already provided.

Absolutely, Positively Real. All the options of a big-time manager are at your disposal. You decide whether your team should hit and run, pinch hit, pinch run, bunt, steal, run conservatively or aggressively.

On defense, you can call for the first and third basemen to guard the lines, or for the outfield to play shallow. You can opt to hold runners tight or loose, or ask for infield in at double-play depth, or in all the way.

You can tell your pitcher to pitch around the batter or simply order an intentional walk. You can even visit the mound and if necessary, dig into the bullpen for a reliever.

Using animated, color Hi-Res graphics, the computer presents an amazingly realistic simulation of baseball that's fun and fast to play. It is so true to life that a hitter with a high RBI total will be biased to hit more often when runners are on base. On potential double plays, it will check for the fielding abilities of the players involved and for the running ability of the batter and person on first base.

When you play solitaire, the computer also serves as the manager of the opposing team.
Computer Baseball. The most realistic strategy game of imaginary baseball ever!

Animated, color Hi-Res screen shows the diamond complete with fielders and batters (noting right- and left-handed batters and pitchers), and marks the baserunner with a number which denotes his/her running ability (1 to 9; with 9 being best).

* Create your own teams or select from many past and present major league teams.
* Each baseball player individually rated.
* Select from over 25 strategy options.
* Hi-Res playing field showing positions of the fielders as determined by player strategies.
* Tabulates statistics for each game.
* For one or two players.

Playing time: One hour

== Description from the packaging. ==

Your Personal Time Machine into History.

The Vietnam War- the tense, agonizing and frustrating period of American involvement in the struggles of Southeast Asia. Great bravery, courage and patriotism were demonstrated by the soldiers in the field against a background of political and social unrest and uncertainty at home.

Vietnam was the first and only war fought in the living rooms of the nation through national television coverage. That sensationalism rarely conveyed the military and historical significance of the actual battlefield situations. But now, with Conflict in Vietnam you have a personal time machine to experience the emotional highs and lows of the battlefield commanders as they struggled to accomplish their missions in a hostile environment where it was never clear who was the enemy or the ally.

Conflict in Vietnam gives you insight to the history of the war, and allows you to test your command abilities on the battlefield. You determine the strategies and tactics leading to victory or defeat.

Conflict in Vietnam gives all the great features you expect from a MicroProse "Command Series" simulation, including:

* Accelerated real-time simulation, with constant battlefield decision-making required.

* Five historically authentic scenarios: Prelude: Dien Bien Phu 1954. Into the Valley: Ia Drang 1965. The Tide Turns: Khe Sanh 1968. Empty Fishook: Cambodia 1970. Fist Cracks: Quang Tri 1972.

* Easy-to-use Command System for novices as well as seasoned simulation strategists.

* Solo and head-to-head competition.

Whether a veteran campaigner or a new recruit to strategy simulations, Conflict in Vietnam will challenge, intrigue, and enlighten you.

== Description from the packaging. ==

First came Sonys, then Toyotas, and then, from the research labs of Mitsubishubuku, the A.E. Designed as a pollution-fighting robot intended to save the world, the A.E. slipped through quality control out into the unsuspecting universe. While the fate of the Free World does not depend upon getting rid of the A.E., they have become a nuisance, much like motorcycle gangs or geese on the runway.

The Mitsubishubuku Company, in conjunction with Broderbund Software, had made this disk available to computer owners to allow us to aid in controlling this pest. Note: the A.E. is not an endangered species.

A.E. is the Japanese word for "ray," as in Manta Ray or Sting Ray.

Note: You will need to turn the disk over once the first side has been loaded. Instructions are on the disk.

* An arcade style game.
* Joystick or paddle controlled.

==Overview==

<i>A.E.</i> is a fixed-screen shoot 'em up video game drawing inspiration from classics like <i>Space Invaders</i> but incorporating unique pseudo-3D visuals and innovative mechanics. The title "<i>A.E.</i>" stands for the Japanese word for "ray," referring to stingray-like alien enemies that invade Earth. Published by [[Broderbund Software]], it was one of the company's early successes during a period when home computer gaming was rapidly evolving.

===Origins and Development===

The game was created by Japanese developers [[Jun Wada]] and [[Makoto Horai]], working under the group Programmers-3. According to [[Broderbund Software|Broderbund]] co-founder [[Gary Carlston]], the developers initially discarded the project, believing it wasn't commercially viable, and he had to persuade them to release it.

===Releases and Platform Variations===

A.E. was released in 1982 for the [[A.E. (Apple II, 5 1/4" Disk) Broderbund Software - 1982 USA, Canada Release|Apple II]] and [[A.E. (Atari 8-Bit, 5 1/4" Disk) Broderbund Software - 1982 USA, Canada Release|Atari 8-bit]] family by [[Broderbund Software|Broderbund]]. It required 48K RAM and came on a double-sided disk: one side for the title screen and copy protection, the other for the actual game and a demo mode. Controls supported joysticks or paddles on Apple II, but were joystick-only on Atari. A port to the [[A.E. (VIC-20, Cartridge) Broderbund Software - 1982 USA, Canada Release|VIC-20]] was also released, but a planned Commodore 64 version, advertised in an early 1983 Broderbund catalog, never materialized— possibly due to an unfinished conversion or a catalog error.

In Japan, MSX, FM-7, PC-99, and SMC-777 versions were released in 1984.

===Gameplay===

In <i>A.E.</i>, players defend Earth from waves of alien "rays" (A.E.) that swarm across the screen in a pseudo-3D perspective, emerging from the horizon and progressing deeper into space across eight stages. Unlike traditional shooters, the player's missiles don't damage on impact; instead, they explode in a blast radius when the fire button is released, similar to <i>Missile Command</i>. Each stage requires clearing three waves by destroying all enemies before they escape the screen, with backgrounds featuring elaborate, scrolling elements like planetary rings or towers that enemies circle. The gameplay draws comparisons to <i>Galaga</i>'s bonus rounds, but with slower shots that demand precise leading and detonation timing. Technical highlights on the Atari version include high-resolution graphics, color artifacting (e.g., enemies morphing into "GAME OVER" letters), and wipe transition effects, though loading times between levels were notably long due to copy protection.

===Reception and Legacy===

Upon release, <i>A.E.</i> was a commercial hit for [[Broderbund Software|Broderbund]], ranking as one of their best-selling titles in 1982 alongside <i>[[Choplifter!]]</i>. As part of [[Broderbund Software|Broderbund's]] early catalog— <i>A.E.</i> exemplifies the era's shift toward more sophisticated home computer games, bridging arcade influences with emerging technical creativity. Today, it remains a niche curiosity in gaming history, preserved through emulation and collector communities, though the unreleased C64 version adds to its mystique with no surviving prototypes.

Murder at Midnight!

It Ain't Easy Being a Private Eye in The Big City!

You're Al Clubs, private eye, and you're three months behind in your rent. Your furniture wouldn't bring the price of a square meal and your secretary walked out on you last week. A telegram lies unopened on your desk. And the phone keeps ringing, and ringing, and ringing. Millicent Hyacinth Sizemore wants her daughter back, and she's willing to pay big. One catch: find her by midnight or she's dead!

Sounds simple, but watch out. This caper has more twists than a Martini drinkers' convention! Clues are everywhere, if you know where to look. Along the way, there's even a murder or two. One of those might be your own if you're careless! And all the time there's the clock. You've only got a few precious hours- but you know this city inside and out. That's why she called you. Besides, you need the dough.

Crime Stopper will keep you running until the wee hours!

== Description from the packaging. ==

The Jade Cities of the Emperor are falling.

The Deathlord stands revealed. Reeking of pestilence. Master of a technology called magic. Spewing hordes of monsters. Exploiting every power there is...and some there shouldn't be.

Life in Lorn was always horrific. But it just got worse. The fiercest Samurai haven't been lucky. They're dead. The Emperor fears for is life.

And the Deathlord seems to have all the time in the world.

To vanquish him, you'll need every magic item you can win. And a few skills you didn't know existed.

It's either that or lose face. Your face.

A Kosaku in your path- you do combat.<br>
Then face monsters- 128 kinds. Mangle them with Kobito hammer. Or chain commands for macro massacre.

A gigantic world with 16 Continents.<br>
Lifelike, but worse. Arid deserts. Ice caves. In between, seas with ocean-going monsters. Whorls and worse.

This dungeon's not your last.<br>
Escape one, there's another. Up to 16 levels. Inside: acid pits, fire, invisible doors, magic curtains. Find special crystals, cross unscathed.

Characters of alarming complexity.<br>
Good and evil. 16 classes. Four kinds of magic users. Seven attributes. 84 different spells. Master them to survive.

== Description from the packaging. ==

The Earth shook from the roar of the Luftwaffe and the RAF took to the skies... The challenge was met!

In August of 1940 the German forces began the first stage of their planned assault on Great Britain: the annihilation of the British Royal Air Force.

Outnumbering the British three-to-one in air power, the Germans were confident in their ability to accomplish this task. On August 13th, 1940, "Eagle Day", the German Luftwaffe began its bombing of airfields. The Battle of Britain had begun.

The skill of the RAF pilots and the unity of the British population stunner the German Commanders. At one point Field Marshall Goering confessed to a German general: "We'd forgotten that the English fight best with their backs to the wall."

The Luftwaffe continued flying raids for the next five weeks with airfields, major cities and radar stations as targets. The British used their advantages of radar and superior air combat tactics in holding back the German onslaught. High morale and leadership were probably the most significant factors in the British stand against the Luftwaffe. The British won the battle and turned the tide of World War II.

Now it's your turn to command the Luftwaffe or R.A.F. in this massively scaled simulation of the Battle of Britain. You now have the chance to rewrite or relive the strategies of one of the greatest battles ever fought in the air.

As German commander you'll try to destroy all of the British airfields, radar stations, planes, and major cities that you can. Every squadron, or gruppe, is rated for experience and morale, and the computer will immediately calculate the increases (or decreases) in each after a mission is flown.

At the beginning of each day/turn, you'll need to check your semi-accurate daily weather report and plan your air raids for each gruppe, including primary and secondary targets and altitude of the raid. You'll have to decide whether it is better to send a valuable squadron out to bomb a radar station so that your forces can reach targets unnoticed, or to bomb a city and interrupt the production of airplanes. You may also want to attack airfields, or take on an RAF fighter squadron in the air.

At the beginning of the following day you may check your readiness report to see how many losses you suffered. You may also check your not-so-dependable intelligence report to see what kind of damage you inflicted on your targets.

As British Commander your goal is to knock the attacking German planes out of the sky. Throughout the day you will set up patrols and transfer squadrons to more effective locations.

You will assigns squadron readiness orders, keeping in mind the trade-offs between quick mobilization of planes and loss of morale due to exhaustion. You'll also have to define tactical orders by squadron or type of aircraft.

Like the Germans, you'll have intelligence and readiness reports to give you results of each day's fighting.

The colorful map display allows players to view the entire southern half of England in one map or three different close-up maps.

You can play the entire 34-turn campaign game or choose any of three medium length games. For a shorter, fast-paced battle in the air, the Eagle Day game consists of one explosive turn.

You never lack an opponent with this game because the computer is always ready to take over the German Command.

The most amazing feature of this extremely detailed game is how easy it is to play. The status reports allow you to examine all of the computer's calculations at a glance in an easy-to-read chart.

One of the greatest computer wargames of all time awaits your command. Rise and meet the challenge!

* Full color map in Hi-Res graphics shows airfields, major cities and radar stations. Summary report shows number of aircraft on raid, altitude, direction and attack/intercept status.

* Close-up map of London area shows RAF squadron confronting Luftwaffe gruppe. Realistic sound effects enhance each raid.

* Readiness report displays all important information for each squadron at the start of each day/turn.

* Intelligence report gives a realistically inaccurate estimate of enemy's strength and expected action for each day.

* Allocation of ME 109's for a raid.

* Accounts for all major plane types, which include Spitfire, Hurricane, Blenheim, Defiant, Gladiator, Me 109E, Me 110C, Ju 87B, Ju 88A, Do 17Z, He 111H.
* Every British squadron and German gruppe is rated for experience and morale.
* Possible targets include airbases, radar stations and industrial centers.
* Losses are recorded in individual planes and pilots.
* Scenarios cover Eagle Day (August 13, 1940), 10-day phases and the entire campaign (August 13 to September 15, 1940).
* Inaccurate intelligence reports.
* Two-player and computer-as-opponent (solitaire) versions.
* A game in progress can be saved on disk for later play.

Fighter Command was designed by Charles Merrow and Jack Avery, whose other works include SSI's Computer Air Combat and Computer Baseball.

Playing Time:<br>
Eagle Day, 1 Hour<br>
Scenarios, 5-10 Hours<br>

The colorful map display allows players to view the entire southern half of England in one map or three different close-up maps.

You can play the entire 34-turn campaign game or choose any of three medium length games. For a shorter, fast-paced battle in the air, the Eagle Day game consists of one explosive turn.

You never lack an opponent with this game because the computer is always ready to take over the German Command.

The most amazing feature of this extremely detailed game is how easy it is to play. The status reports allow you to examine all of the computer's calculations at a glance in an easy-to-read chart.

One of the greatest computer wargames of all time awaits your command. Rise and meet the challenge!

The castle has sat unused for over 1,000 years, thereby becoming a haven for roaming giants, serpents, spiders and mysterious blobs. When you succeed in gaining entrance, Hogarth your jealous cousin, usurper to the throne, seals the only known access behind you.

Your goal- find the diamond and an exit before your energy runs out. This task is surmountable only by a true ruler.

The clues and puzzles must be solved as you move through the different chambers and fight battles in real time. The action is continuous, the graphics spectacular!

Spike's Peak by Larry Holland

You are Spike, climbing a mountain against time and the elements. Choose the safer route by path, or be daring and climb the cliff instead. But such a decision will change your speed and your technique.

Completing five different scrolling screens will take you to the top of the mountain, but beware of diving eagles, hungry bears, big horn sheep, and abominable snowmen that hide in the darkened caves. You must also watch for rock slides and slippery ice caps- they may send you sliding into poisonous mountain cactuses or raging streams. Blizzards move in quickly at the higher elevations- you'll have to hurry before you freeze.

So, grab your pitons and climbing rope and summon all the courage you can find- you're going to need it to survive.

Ghost Manor by Jonathan Creighton

You stand in a lonely graveyard outside Ghost Manor. A friend is trapped inside. You must find a way to enter the Manor and rescue the prisoner through seven game screens. But beware! Ghosts lurk near tombstones; goblins haunt the entryway; hands ooze out of graves; and the chopping skeleton will do his best to keep you out of Ghost Manor.

If you succeed in gaining entrance to the first door, you must seek out the special coffins which hold the crosses. But watch out for the deadly moving wall. Outwit skills, scorpions, and bats to find the keys that will take you to the other levels- and hope the witch won't snatch them away. Then go to the roof, defeat Dracula and save your friend. Ghoul luck!

== Description from the packaging. ==

All you have to do is finish the building. Sound easy? Then you're forgetting about certain government regulations, the neighborhood punks, and the fact that falling bodies (including your own) accelerate at the rate of 32 feet per second/per second. It's a tough life, maybe. But it makes your beer taste better.

The Cast

Mack<br>
A bonna fide Working Class Hero. Puts John Henry to shame. Reads Eric Hoffer. Fueled by cupcakes and an unshakable belief in the work ethic.

Vandals<br>
Extremely unpleasant. They think you're spoiling their neighborhood. They say things about your mother. They have no sense of the value of life, especially yours.

OSHA<br>
Crew-cut, clip-board and absolutely no sense of humor. Living proof of the banality of evil. The government sends a generous supply of these guys to cite you into oblivion.

== Description from the packaging. ==

Modern land combat.

Ever had that urge to be in command? To lead men against superior enemy forces? Sure you have. But only the "legally brain dead" want to be shot at for real. Well partner, fire up Heavy Metal for an experience infinitely better than the "real" thing.

Start out in the War Room devising a strategy to overrun enemy positions. Now jump inside an M1A1 Abrams main battle tank and feel the power of one of the most destructive land combat vehicles ever built. Your trigger finger itches when your 120mm cannon is loaded... An enemy tank appears on your laser range finder... fire... a direct hit and pieces are scattered from here to Anchorage. Or hop behind the wheel of the XR311 FAV (Fast Attack Vehicle). This hot little beauty looks like a dune buggy, moves at speeds over 100 mph and is armed with TOW missiles. It's not a Lamborghini or a Porsche, but it easily blows them off the road.

Time to power up your ADATS (Air Defense Anti Tank System) and start knocking down incoming MiG Fighters. Seems easy until they start coming in 6 or 8 at a time. Now you're in serious trouble. But don't forget, you're also the Company Commander. Charlie Company is on the horn and wants to know what to do. Attack?... Fall back?... Just received word that your defense perimeters have been overrun and the General's on the line. He wants to know what's going on up here?

Some were born to lead, others to follow. Maybe it's time to re-evaluate.

Do you have what it takes to move up the ranks in today's army? Take the Heavy Metal challenge and find out!
