It was an early DOS AI-based program that would converse with you. The Mac version had a voice synthesis that was very good, but I recall that the PC version installed an early version of Windows (2.0 I think). I still have it up on my shelf at home...

Another one was for the Apple IIc, it was again very simple but addictive. You started with a helicopter on the right side of the screen, and you had I think 3 letters to play with. On eletter would start a tank going towards the left, another was a soldier, and one was an engineer (there may have been others, I can't remember). You had to get a good group going, as the computer was doing the same thing out of sight on the left, and when the armies met, they would fight each other one at a time. The helicopter was controlled with a joystick, and it had heat seeking missiles, but so did the computer. Keep in mind this was all made from white lines on a black background. 2 points if you can come up with the name for this one.

Rescue Raiders - this is the one where you had to get the Demolition truck all the way to the other side, right? And you earned money by killing enemies. Loved this game.
