Publisher's description

After a successful mission to establish friendly contact with an advanced alien species, the humans of the ship Apollo 2000 learn that Earth has been invaded and occupied by the Cantharan Order, a zealous alien civilization on a crusade to conquer "primitive" cultures (see screen shot). Fortunately, the humans gain the assistance of the Ishiman Protectorate, which agrees to help the humans fight their new enemies and refit the Apollo 2000 with powerful weaponry. Since the Apollo is no longer a vessel of peace, a new name is in order for the craft: Ares.

As an action and strategy game, Ares combines the adrenaline rush of arcade-style space shooters with the challenge of plotting real-time strategy moves against your opponents. Smooth dynamic scaling and zooming gives you detailed views of everything from tactical to overhead-perspective views, and nice graphics, support for multiplayer network games, and a compelling soundtrack round out this game.

Changes in version 1.1.0:

• There are now three new tutorial levels designed to virtually eliminate Ares' learning curve
• This version of Ares supports GameRanger, the Macintosh network game community; finding an opponent for networked play should be easy

Note: Ares requires any 68040 or Power Macintosh computer with MacOS 7.5.3 or later, a 13-inch color monitor, and 6MB of free RAM. Ares has a registration fee of $25.
