NAME

       solarwolf - Collect the boxes and don't become mad

SYNOPSIS

       solarwolf

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the solarwolf command.

       solarwolf  is  an  action/arcade  game  written entirely in Python.  It is is originally based on the SolarFox game on the Atari 2600.  The
       point of the game is to scramble through 60 levels of patterns, collecting all the boxes. The part that makes it  tricky  is  avoiding  the
       relentless  hailstorm  of  fire	coming at you from all directions.  You can use the "-window" and/or "-nosound" flags to force some of the
       options from the command line.

NAME

       gemdropx - an interesting one-player puzzle game for X-Window

SYNOPSIS

       gemdropx [--help] [--version] [--usage] [--nomusic]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.  Instead, it
       has documentation in /usr/share/doc/gemdropx/README.txt.gz

       gemdropx is an interesting one-player puzzle game for X-Window.	It is a direct port of Gem Drop, an Atari 8-bit game  written  in  Action!
       (a very fast C- and Pascal-like compiled language for the Atari).  The concept of the game Gem Drop is based on an arcade game for the Neo-
       Geo system called "Magical Drop III" by SNK.

       If you're familiar with games like Jewels, Klax, Bust-A-Move or Tetris, this game is similar to them all.  I consider it closest to Klax.
