This came up recently due to a small coincidence. Does anyone remember this early MS-DOS game for PC compatibles?
It was designed to look exactly like the spreadsheet, so you could play in the office, but you had to "shoot" falling numbers by doing arithmetic... It looked just like a mockup of 1-2-3 r2.01, the classic version. >From very vague memory... There was an answer line at the bottom. Numbers would trickle down the current column. You had to add, subtract, multiply or divide and input the correct answer. If you didn't, your mistakes piled up, like incomplete lines in Tetris, giving you less room and so less time to do the computation, until you died. Then a new column began, I think. When all the columns were full of figures, you'd died and had to start a new game. It wasn't much of a game, but it was kinda fun, and it was a perfect mockup of the spreadsheet, so it would pass casual over-the-shoulder inspection. -- Liam Proven • Profile: https://about.me/liamproven Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk • Google Mail/Talk/Plus: lpro...@gmail.com Twitter/Facebook/Flickr: lproven • Skype/LinkedIn/AIM/Yahoo: liamproven UK: +44 7939-087884 • ČR/WhatsApp/Telegram/Signal: +420 702 829 053
