I'll admit, I'm starting to get a little tired, but I'm pretty sure I can make it to the finish. There are still plenty of games that probably aren't clones of ones we've seen already, or at least are ridiculous ones.
402. MOUSE SNARE
A Nice Code clone of Minesweeper. Versions were also released as Mine and Bomb. (I have a strange enduring love for Minesweeper, but it always feels weird to me to play it without a two-button mouse.)
403. MOWING
Another by Nice Code. A lawn mower must fully mow every inch of the lawn. This uses graphics from Wacky Races. It was also released as Agile Mice, Gem, and Lawn Mower.
404. MS PAC MAN
Exactly what you’d expect. I never really understood what was different between the original Pac-Man and this. The Wikipedia article, kindly, summarizes the differences, which are basically small, incremental improvements.
405. LUIGI AND NEW QU
I think this is actually the same game as Luigi and the Christmas Quest (#282), just without the winter theme. It’s by the same hacker and at least the first chunk of level 1-1 is the same.
406. CONTE ENEGY
Though you can’t immediately tell from the graphics, this is a Lode Runner hack. And a difficulty hack, at that!
