Game modes:Single player
Story:How Would You Survive? is an education program based on the book series of the same name. It covers Egyptians, Aztecs and Vikings. The premise is that it shows children the ropes of the people's lives in those time periods in case the player should become one of them. The program mostly consists of interconnected, narrated slides which contain explanations about the subject in question. It also contains a quiz. Here the player chooses a difficulty level (which only changes the number of wrong guesses before the game is over) and is presented with 10 multiple-choice questions. The goal is to answer all questions before all wrong guesses are spent. When a wrong answer was chosen, the game creates a link to the appropriate slide. After reading it, the player can switch to the quiz and try again. Normally the quiz covers only one time period except for the masterquiz option which is about all three periods.Show more

Hoyle Official Book of Games: Volume 3
Hoyle Official Book of Games: Volume 3Six board games are transformed to the computer screen in the third Hoyle's release. Snakes & Ladders, Backgammon, Yacht / Yahtzee, Checkers, Dominoes and Pachisi / Parcheesi all feature, with animated graphics and sound effects. As there is no time-sensitive action, and the game rules are familiar, these packs were designed to appeal to a wider range of people than most computer games. At least one human player is required - other players can be human or computer. The 18 computer opponents from the first Hoyle's game return, many of them modeled on other Sierra characters such as Larry Laffer, and again some play 'good' and some play 'evil'.
