I used to have this game but lost it. It was a really good C%C-esque game with a twist, you could 'jump' inside one of your units instead of using the RTS view (although give no orders, just fight).
It was called Machines. It was really good, go 80% from most PC gaming mags, but no-one bought it. Shame really, even the AI was quite good. |

Probably my original copies of Princessmaker II and Balor of the Evil Eye, since the plug was pulled on both of these pretty quickly after release.
But I've got a third game whose name escapes me, in which you raised dragons to send against villages while searching for portions of a missing amulet. It also had roughly 30 alchemy ingredients, along with 4 methods of working ingredients, plus low and high temperatures. I loved the thing, although the two AI-driven opponents were not very good. That British title didn't even make it out the door in the US, since the distributor went bankrupt before its release. (I got my copy from the distributor in advance for review.) It's here, somewhere, but I don't recall where. |

I would say: Feeble Files, at least if obscure has the same meaning as rare... (it's rare in Sweden at least.)

After doing some research on this game, I have found out that this is most likely one of the rarest games ever produced. The company that made the game (Aditus) was based in my country, Canada. More specifically Montreal, Canada. The game was never mass produced as its sister game (London C.I.T.Y) was due to financial troubles the company was having at the time. The company was sold and the game shelved never to see the light of day. Before the sale of the company, 50 copies of the game were pressed and boxed, and sent out to various retailers in Canada and the US as a promotion. How many still exist ? Who knows. Probably not many. After having done my research on the game (and actually contacting an ex-employee of Aditus who still resides in Montreal), I am unsure of what I should do with the game. I was going to sell it to a friend, but I quickly cancelled that deal when I found out about the rarety of the game. I think most likely it will end up on E-Bay. |

Well, here's, an idea: open the box, play it, review it and upload it for the rest of us here at Abandonia!!!
