ZQuake

ZQuake is a port from the I.D. game, Quake for the PC. The characters are completely 3D and the game looks beautiful. This is the best shooter for the Zodiac in my opinion!

ZHexen

Following the tale of D'Sparil's defeat in Heretic, Hexen takes place in another realm, Cronos, which is besieged by the second of the Serpent Riders, Korax. Three heroes set out to destroy Korax. The player assumes the role of one such hero. In the course of his quest he travels through elemental dungeons, a wilderness region, a mountainside seminary, a large castle and finally a necropolis.

ZHexen II

Hexen II is a dark fantasy first-person shooter developed by Raven Software from 1996 to 1997, published by id Software and distributed by Activision. It was the third game in the Hexen/Heretic series, and the last in the Serpent Riders trilogy. It was made available on Steam on August 3, 2007. Using a modified Quake engine, it featured single-player and multi-player game modes, as well as four character classes to choose from, each with different abilities. These included the offensive Paladin, the defensive Crusader, the spell-casting Necromancer, and the stealthy Assassin.

ZDoomZ

ZDoomZ is a port that was started by YoYo and improved on by MetaView. Doom was one of the first "First Person Shooters" on the market. It's a great game, too.

ZapEm

Test your wit and reflexes with ZapEm, a dual-mode action puzzler developed exclusively for the Zodiac from Vicious Bytes. ZapEm has two modes of play, Action Zap and Brain Zap. Action Zap mode is filled with fast-action that ends only where your skills do. Pieces approach your space and challenge you to ZapEm. Brain Zap mode is a puzzle game with stationary pieces that you must clear with a limited number of Zaps. Easy to learn but difficult to master -- that's ZapEm!

Xploids

Destined to be a classic, it's an arcade-style, space-shooter game where you race to run a series of waypoints unlocked by keys found in devices -- called Xploids. You can destroy these Xploids with rail-guns, seekers, crushing shields, repulsors and other power-ups. Choose your pilot and hone your skills while competing for the global high-score. Advanced levels unleash enemy ships that will compete to close the waypoints you're trying to keep open! It's a high-speed rapid paced game with hours of unlimited gameplay.

Warfare Incorporated

Warfare Incorporated is set in a future ruled by super corporations engaged in no-holds-barred competition for the resources of the galaxy. The action centers around the newly discovered planet Icarus with its astounding mineral wealth and mysterious alien relics. Players take the role of a junior executive at the underdog ACME Exploration Corporation, discoverer of Icarus, and work their way up the corporate ladder by demonstrating their strategic and tactical skills in a campaign of increasingly challenging missions. Early missions concentrate on resource gathering and combat with ACME's chief rival OMNI Industries and as the game develops other factions and the power of the alien technologies come into play.

Tomb Raider

Graphically amazing, the game engine was nearly complete before Tapwave quit. The graphics in this game are amazing, not to mention PSP quality. Sadly, it was never completed.

Thruster

A side scrolling game to pass the time. Crazy addicting and fun. You're a triangle who shoots out disintegrating sparks and you use them to disintegrate your surroundings. Careful, because if you hit anything, you die!

Terminator 3

Destined to be the Zodiac's number one first person shooter, Terminator 3 was never released to the public sadly. But this pre-release is very nicely done and its a great game and REALLY deserves a look in to!

Spy Hunter

SpyHunter thrusts gamers through seven high adrenaline missions around the globe in exotic locations in a quest to save the world. Get behind the wheel of the G-6155 Interceptor for high-speed, mission-based racing in exotic locales. A reinvention of the arcade classic, SpyHunter boasts ultra-realistic 3D graphics, real-world locales and the only vehicle capable of morphing into a boat, jet ski or motorcycle.

Spout

Spout, a minimalist game by Kuni. Your goal is to fly as high as you can. Use your thruster to erode the landscape. The game is over when the white dot at the center of your ship collides with a wall.

Orbital Sniper

Port of a computer game called Orbital Sniper, you protect the VIP's by sniping threats with an floating sniper.

Noiz2sa

Noiz2sa is a fast paced shoot 'em up. The whole game is abstractly designed shapes and squares. The environment is awesome and the controls rock!

This project aims to rewrite the original engine of the game and requires the original datafiles. This rewrite is based on the reversing of the Amiga and PC versions. The engine initially designed for Nicky Boum was re-used, along with several modifications in 2 games also distributed by Microids : Nicky 2 (1993) and Carlos (1994). Currently, only Nicky Boum and Nicky 2 are playable with this project.

A vast horde of alien battleships is approaching our solar system. Due to maintenance problems only one fighter craft is ready to defend the planet.

Galactic Realms

With the recent expansion into space, several factions have continued their struggle for dominance in the dark void. The United Nations has set up a council to govern and monitor the new colonies, but there are those who prefer only chaos. With the new rebel threat, the UN council has no choice but to declare war and to start building their own battleships to eliminate the rebel menace. You have been selected to command the UN fleet, but the rebels will prove to be a formidable opponent, and a new unknown threat has yet to be unveiled.

Duke Nukem

Duke Nukem 3D features the adventures of the titular macho Duke Nukem, voiced by Jon St. John, who fights against an alien invasion on Earth. Along with Wolfenstein 3D and Doom, Duke Nukem 3D is considered responsible for popularizing first-person shooters. It was released to major acclaim. Reviewers praised the interactivity of the environment, level design, gameplay, and unique risqu? humor, a mix of pop-culture satire and lampooning of over-the-top Hollywood action heroes.

Doom 2

Official Doom II for the Tapwave Zodiac gives you a chance to use incredible firepower against the forces of Hell itself. As netherworld creatures overrun the Earth, you'll collect weapons and equipment to take them out in a rain of bombs and bullets.

Cybersaurus

Cybersaurus is a thrilling new action game from Darxun Games for Palm OS 5.2 and later devices. The game's storyline is a hodgepodge of elements inspired by Beast Wars-era Transformers and the BattleTech/MechWarrior universe. The game's tired storyline consists of your Raptor 9000 mech being the Earth's only hope against a race of evil Robosaurs. The mechanized Robosaurs civilization used Earth's original Dinosaurs as inspiration for their sleek, metallic instruments of destruction. Now in the year 2513 they have returned to reclaim the planet for themselves. Of course, the primary role here is action-packed gameplay so any storyline shortcomings can be forgiven.

Rain, snow, sleet, nuclear waste -- nothing can stop the three Animated Dudes as they battle the diabolically toxic Dr. Barrel and his crazed mutants through 8 unique worlds and 32 colorful levels of adventure. Developed exclusively for the Zodiac, you've never seen anything quite like the Animated Dudes!
