Title: Non-network/FPS games for a laptop Post by: Ace on April 22, 2004, 11:20:25 pm I've got airburst on my laptop, but pretty much every other game is either an FPS or a networked multiplayer game. I'm looking for games that I can spend 5-30 minutes on killing time. Can anyone suggest anything?

Escape Velocity (all) - Sure you know these space adventure games. Asshole2 (now for OSX and free) - fun, mindless card game. Cribbage - a card game that makes you think a bit more. Heroes of Might and Magic 4 - Real time strategy. Command and Conquer Demo - latest real time strategy. Masters of Orion (2 or 3) - 2 is OS9, 3 takes forever. You Don't Know Jack (Sports is fun) - OS9, but great mindless trivia with an attitude.

Think Choplifter with forest fires.
Also www.emulation.net for emulators. Title: Re:Non-network/FPS games for a laptop Post by: th.Sentinel on April 23, 2004, 12:51:24 pm Mac Free Games (http://www.macfreegames.com) ;D
Title: Re:Non-network/FPS games for a laptop Post by: spike on April 26, 2004, 02:25:31 am so....whys the emulaters link not working>?
oh btw, brushfire is great. I'm rocking the techno and the forest fires and the little man that says "fire spotted!" good catch! and also...any one have any ideas for an icon for a games folder? Title: Re:Non-network/FPS games for a laptop Post by: Mr. Lothario on April 26, 2004, 07:34:31 am Another one to check out: Spaceward Ho! (http://www.deltatao.com/spacewardho5.html) by Delta Tao (http://deltatao.com/). It's a simplistic 4X game (other examples of the 4X genre are Civilization, Master of Orion, and Alpha Centauri) Only $40 to register, and oriented towards fun and quick games. Try the demo.
And I have no idea why Emulation.net is down. I haven't been there in a couple of months, but last time I tried, it was up. Hrmph.

OR: spacestation pheta mac arcade games.... drooool.. Title: Re:Non-network/FPS games for a laptop Post by: Ace on April 28, 2004, 12:07:01 am Thanks for the advice everybody. I have downloaded many of the ones you mentioned. Bucc, you are a bastard for reintroducing me to Asshole. I got over that addiction once already, but now I'm screwed. At least classes will be done soon.
Title: Re:Non-network/FPS games for a laptop Post by: |MP|Buccaneer on April 28, 2004, 09:44:46 pm I taught my parents how to play Asshole last time I was down to visit them. Nothing in the world like calling your mom Asshole all night, and her laughing about it.
