Flojomojo Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Remember Spectre, the 3D tank game? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectre_(1991_video_game) No? There were several versions of it on Macintosh, and a nice PC port, and it came in a funky geometrical box. One version came with a copy of Neal Stephenson’s “Snow Crash” cyberpunk novel packed in. There was also a Super Nintendo port, and for a while, an iOS version that worked really well on iPad. It hasn’t been updated for a long time though. Looks like they have a very fun and functional network multiplayer version that runs in the browser now! Check it out. https://spectre3d.com 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 I had fun decades ago in DOS with this one, never gave the SNES game a lot of time compared but it was solid on there too, especially in the year if your computer wasn't as good (wing commander ported over well too.) The iOS version is it still around? Browser being fussy about opening the link so I'll have to grab my phone, but it said it was updated in 2020. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlidellMan Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 I remember playing the Super NES original 29 years ago. Granted, I never got very far. One of my friends--who happens to be a classic Apple and Atari collector--has Spectre and its sequel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like it’s totally my type of game too. When Jaguar first arrived on the scene, I played a bunch of Cybermorph in stores to see what I was missing. I concluded I could wait and see, since the 3D graphics of Spectre were at least as good as what it seemed like the Jag could do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't know there was a free version you can play in your browser. Thanks for sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
