Spin Doctor Brings Retro Mac Gaming to the iPhone

[ELMI0001]

Yes! My aunt purchased her Performa 6116CD (or was it a 6115CD?) many years ago, and it had this wonderful game pre-installed on it. I remember as a kid playing this constantly when we would visit. Such a wonderful game. It's simple, but challenging. A great blast from the past that needs no changes or updates to still be fun in this day & age. It simply rocks to have this on the iPhone!

My parents bought us a 6116CD from Sears and this came pre-installed. Also included; a Stylewriter 1200. Be jealous.

Haha. I would be but my aunt had the Color Sytlewriter 2400. So be jealous of our equally crummy printer which refused to work half the time.

Spin Doctor was amazing. I think I just had the Challenger version, but I loved it. If there was an OS X port, I would buy it up immediately. I have already bought up the iOS version.

the worst was going to the store for a replacement ink cartridge and having them dig out a dusty old book to find the Canon equivalent. ahh, the memories.

The word you're looking for is "retro".

Apple should buy free copies for anyone who can prove they owned one of the gazillion different performa models - especially the 63x series. Those were some of the worst boxes Apple ever made. I had two of them.

Geez, *that* remind (bad) memories...

Mazewars!

Man.. the good ol' days Playing this... Mazewars. Back when there was still Mac Paint! Remember that?

Imagine if they ported Mazewars to iOS now--that would be tremendous fun for multiplayer! (Hint hint )

A multiplayer Mazewars has been ported and is available in the App Store: search for "Maze Wars Revisited".

Wow! This made my day!

So many fond memories of playing this game back in the mid 90s.

Where are the “controls?”

They are the shaded areas in the lower left, center, and right.
