Disk No: 1913 Disk Title: Osmosis Solitaire and Bingo PC-SIG Version: Program Title: Osmosis Solitaire Author Version: 2.00 Author Registration: $15.00 Special Requirements: CGA. OSMOSIS SOLITAIRE takes the popular parlor game of solitaire and adds many new and interesting twists. Starting with a standard deck of 52 playing cards, the program creates 4 stock piles (3 cards down and 1 card up) and a 1 base card which will be the key for starting the game. The rest of the cards are stored in the "waste pile." Each subsequent row can only be started by a matching base card of another suit. The object is to build upon each base card the other twelve cards of its own suit. Accept for your starting stock row - you cannot play a card unless it can be found in the preceding row. Too add to the fun, the 4 stock piles must also be used in play, the final outcome, hopefully, all cards will be played! Although this may sound complicated, it isn't. The program sets up easily on any IBM or compatible. The function keys are used to select card colors, sound toggle, speed of dealing, save game feature, advance and standard scoring options and much more. OSMOSIS SOLITAIRE can be installed on your hard disk with no trouble at all - just use the OSSTART command and choose this function from the menu. Graphics are pleasant and enjoyable - if you are having difficulty reading the cards, try changing the color scheme. Play is also simple - the 1 - 4 number keys control the stock piles, while D, R and W allow you to deal, re-deal and draw a card from the waste pile. And, if you want, use your mouse - OSMOSIS SOLITAIRE is also mouse compatible! A great pastime for all who enjoy card games of any sort. Immediately accessible and easily understandable, OSMOSIS SOLITAIRE will soon be a popular game for your gaming library. Don't pass up this wonderful package created by Raymond M. Buti. Program Title: Bingo Author Version: 1.0 Author Registration: None. Special Requirements: None. Being the BINGO caller can be a thankless job, so let the computer do it! BINGO will print as many different BINGO cards as is needed for your game, then pick and records the numbers for you. The program picks numbers between 1 and 75, one number at a time, giving the number plus its line letter designation as in a regular bingo game. The program keeps track of the called numbers, on a ``tote board'' to be available to compare with the numbers on the winning card.
