It is 927 A.D., and Odin has summoned you, Thor, to rescue Midgard from your evil half-brother, Loki. This is a very clever puzzle game with action and fighting thrown in for fun. You navigate the world screen by screen, with different obstacles at almost every turn. Your enchanted hammer, Mjolnir, can be thrown and will always return to you. It will kill most, but not all enemies. Some of the screens can be very difficult and require a lot of thinking, but they're very rewarding to solve. Even the graphics and sound are enjoyable. There are 3 episodes in this game, with only the first episode playable in the shareware version. Part 1: Serpent Surprise! God of Thunder v1.1 Registered Version (1035k) Author Adam Pedersen has generously released this game as freeware.

One of my all-time favorite games. Jetpack has similarities to Lode Runner, except that you control a character who has a jetpack that allows him to fly (when he has fuel), in addition to the ability to temporarily phase change bricks in order to trap enemies or move through walls, floors and ceilings. In every level various enemies try to kill you, and you must collect all of the green orbs and make it through the door to advance to the next stage. The levels and challenges are excellent, and make good use of stairs, barriers and different types of terrain. There is also an extremely good level editor, and hundreds of user-created levels can be found on fan sites throughout the internet. There are 100 levels in the game.

Squarez is a puzzle game in which blocks of various shapes can enter the screen from the bottom corner of the screen and can be rotated and placed anywhere, provided that they can be moved through the blocks that are already sitting in the playing field. The goal is to place the blocks so that squares of at least 3×3 are formed, which causes them to disappear. There are also special blocks, such as bombs, missiles, and goo, that can remove blocks or hinder your ability to move or place blocks. The game ends when you can no longer move pieces onto the playing field. Squarez Deluxe v1.5 Registered (484k) Author Adam Pedersen generously released Jetpack and Squarez Deluxe as freeware under the Jetpack and Squarez Deluxe Freeware License on 17 December 1998.
