CADAVER is available in Europe, but SPEEDBALL II not yet.
CADAVER is a must. It's one of the best role playing/adventure games I've ever
seen. The best one since Dunjeon Master, with arcade quality graphics and
animation. But it's a true adventure/RPG game, not an arcade/adventure. The
levels are very big, with hundreds of objects, a lot of enigmas, a lot of
spells, of potions. It took me a week to complete level 1, and I'm stuck In
level 2, but I only played it during a week. Thrust me and buy CADAVER !
By the way, it's made by the Bitmap Brothers -> top quality code, excellent
graphics, animation, sound and gameplay. The game is very playable (I know a
lot of people who finished it, and are looking for the next scenario disk),
and I love it.

SPEEDBALL II will be a must too. Everything the Bitmap Brothers do is gold.
