Caesar II

Article Abstract:

Sierra On-Line's $59.95 Caesar II offers great graphics and a high level of strategic elements, making its few blemishes hardly noticeable. Caesar II is similar to SimCity, except that players are asked to build a Roman society. Players can choose from a plethora of structures, including houses, schools, coliseums, temples, armies, bathhouses, factories, theaters and markets. Each structure effects the population, resulting in a range of scenarios. Caesar's interface makes it easy to track almost every vital element. The game also includes campaign and combat options that place it above similar city-building simulation games. Caesar's graphics are excellent, displayed in detailed Super VGA. On the downside, the game includes some annoyingly repetitive ambient noises and suffers from unimpressive background music.

Trophy Bass

Article Abstract:

Sierra On-Line's $54.95 Trophy Bass simulation game captures the feel of fishing on the professional bass circuit and should provide good fun for any avid fisherman. Trophy Bass offers six photorealistic lakes for players to explore. Each lake is teaming with 5-to-10-pound bass, as well as a few 20-pounders. Bass habitats and behaviors are accurately modeled, forcing players to do a little research before casting their lines. Players are equipped with a high-tech bass boat, a live-well, a fish-finder device and an electric trolling motor. Players also get to choose from a plethora of fishing poles. A comprehensive multimedia session helps guide novices through the basics. Players can choose to join a fishing tournament or take off for a day of solitary fishing.
