I wish more Jaguar developers would release playable demos. Just one level, or something that times out after a few minutes would be fine. That way we could try these out on emulators. BTW, BigPEmu is definitely my Jaguar emulator of choice now! Thanks again for the tip James!

I've been informed that there were demos from previous years released for the three games that make up Brawn and Brains:

• Dragon Keep: 2020 Demo
• Tiles: 2020 Demo
• Do The Same: 2009 Demo

I've also uploaded them to the Game Binaries link above for your convenience.

RESULTS DISCLAIMER:

 

The rules of the voting require all voters to be an active member of the AtariAge Forum by the end of the eligible year. We've had to manually deduct the votes of those who may have unknowingly violated this rule and unfortunately the software used for the polls doesn't easily allow for the removal of votes after the fact. Therefore you must deduct the below votes to get accurate results, sorry for any confusion this may cause. We will be looking into software to help eliminate the issue so we won't have to do this next year.

 

VOTES TO REMOVE:

 

(1) Asteroite

(1) Gravitic Mines
