Previews: Adventures "Furtum Sacrum" and "RetroWars", Beat'em Up "Brus Lii"
The point'n click adventures Furtum Sacrum (video) and Retro Wars (video) are developed by the Spanish team of Amiga Wave using the editor GRAC and some AMOS code. Both games require any Amiga with one Megabyte Chip-RAM.

Retro Wars immerses in the world of "Star Wars" and has already been finished. You can download a Spanish version of the game from the website and the major part of the English translation has been already done. For collectors there is a boxed edition, which can be ordered via eMail from the authors:

According to the website, Furtum Sacrum ("Sacred Theft") "places us in the late Middle Ages. Specifically, in the Northwest of Spain, where there are a number of pilgrimage routes and roads with a lots of monasteries flourishing everywhere. These monasteries offer services to pilgrims in exchange for alms, they also have their own sources of funding, their crops and local products." An early (Spanish) demo version can be downloaded.

The English translation of RetroWars as well as the development of Furtum Sacrum temporarily were suspended because Amiga Wave were going to finish "Brus Lii" (Youtube) to submit it to the Amiga Game Jam 2016 in time. (cg) (Translation: dr)
