Name: Tristam Island
Author: Hugo Labrande
URL; http://hlabrande.itch.io/tristam-island
Genre: Game
Code: Z-Machine + BitShifter's interpreter
Requirements: VIC-20 with full RAM expansion (28k or more) or Penultimate+ Cart
Description: After crashing your plane at sea, you end up drifting to a small island, with not much to survive. You explore, and find out the island was inhabited, years ago. But why did the people leave? And why is there a fence around the white house at the top of the hill?

TRISTAM ISLAND is a text adventure made from the mold of Infocom; expect a large geography to explore, lots of prose, a rich parser, diverse puzzles, some humor and some darkness. To use Infocom's classification, I'd rate the game's difficulty as "Standard"; however, the game's design is modern and eschews all the frustrations commonly associated with 1980s text adventures. No hunger timers, no frustrating mazes, no blocking situations that force you to restart! The game offers around 7-10h of gameplay, and come with a hint sheet and a "feelie" set in the game's universe.

Genre: Game
Code: ML
Requirements: Unexpanded VIC-20 (PAL, Cartridge version) or VIC-20 +8K (PAL, PRG version)
Description: Perhaps you've clung to power for too long. With protests in the street and the army on the hand of the opposition it is time to grab the money and go! Escape on foot, by car and plane to your tropical island to retire peacefully, if you can get there alive! Expect fierce resistance in this VIC-20 action game where you play the bad guy!

OVERTHROWN is a 8K Cartridge Game for the Commodore VIC-20 where you play the soon to be ex-president of a corrupt state. Your goal is simple, escape to your private island without getting killed! Unfortunately everybody seems intent to stop you from reaching retirement so expect heavy resistance in the form of road barriers, mines, insurgents, helicopters, airplanes and the navy. Points are scored for remaining cash and distance traveled. The game is controlled by joystick.
