Game Description:<\/em>\u00a0In \u201cLost Treasures of Alexandria\u201d you play Christine, an archaeologist\/geologist who stumbles across an unexplained archaeological secret. Few are aware, and mainstream science seems to ignore the fact, that some almost perfectly spherical metal spheres were found buried deep in various mines in Africa. The spheres have three concentric rings etched around their circumference, which appear to be neither natural nor man-made. So what are these anachronisms doing in rock strata dating back over a million years? Is it possible that the first civilisations could be millions of years old?<\/em><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Game Description:<\/em>\u00a0Part of the Family Computer 30th<\/sup>\u00a0Anniversary Campaign.<\/em><\/p>\n

Donkey Kong not only launched the career of Mario, when he was known simply as Jumpman, but also of the eponymous ape who went on to become a hero himself. It also laid the foundation for the \u2018platform\u2019 genre \u2013 still going strong to this day. This NES version of the arcade classic was a launch title for the console, and is one of the most faithful adaptations of the original. Rescue the kidnapped Pauline from DK\u2019s clutches, negotiating increasingly tricky obstacles, and knock that pesky primate off his perch!<\/em><\/p>\n
