Hi.  I have a basic old A500 with (500 Chip, 500 fast RAM), and a
second floppy drive.  With these limitations in mind...

There are a lot of games out there I am leary about, mainly because
I haven't heard a lot of opinion about them.  

Would anyone care to comment on playability, graphics, and interface
for:

o  Space Quest and King's Quest games from Sierra...so many games are
   ported instead of really rewritten (Space Rogue comes to mind), and
   it seems that the ones that have been rewritten (like SimCity) are
   a lot more friendly than clunky ports...How do these Sierra games
   add up.

o  Future Wars.  I've seen this in the stores, but have heard no comments
   about it.  Is it text, graphics, what?  How is it?

o  Spellcasting 101.  Is this out for the Amiga?  I have not seen it at all.

These were foremost in my mind.  Next time I'm in the store, I'll note
others and ask about them.  Any comments on the above titles would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
