"Miner Willy, while prospecting down Surbiton way, stumbles upon an ancient, long forgotten mine-shaft. On further exploration, he finds evidence of a lost civilisation far superior to our own, which used automatons to dig deep into the Earth's core to supply the essential raw materials for their advanced industry. After centuries of peace and prosperity, the civilisation was torn apart by war, and lapsed into a long dark age, abandoning their industry and machines. Nobody, however, thought to tell the mine robots to stop working, and through countless aeons they had steadily accumulated a hugh stockpile of valuable metals and minerals, and Miner Willy realises that he now has the opportunity to make his fortune by finding the underground store."

Manic Miner is a platform game in the classic style - many would say that Matthew Smith's original 1983 version was the very game which popularized the genre.

This port brings Andy Noble's updated 1997 version of the game to the UNIX platform, introducing updated graphics, sound and music but attempting to maintain the precise gameplay of the original.

Mantigua is a simple turn-based board game based on the following background story:

You and some competing merchants find an yet unknown and undiscovered cluster of islands. The native inhabitants are peaceful and willing to trade their goods. Now every merchant wants to build up his own trade network to earn as much money as possible. Because of the limited number of islands there isn't enough room for more than one merchant. So all merchants meet and decide that the merchant who can establish more trade monopolies on the islands than his competitors will gain the exclusive right to trade on this cluster of islands.
