Gryphon
Players control Gryphon, a mythical creature living in the Land of Dreams and Legend, a land made up of Mystic Forests, Surreal Cities and the deadly Dark Lands. One day, Gryphon wakes up to discover that his gold has been threatened by Id Monsters and the pure water of the rivers and lakes has turned into poison, blocking access to the different regions.
You are tasked with carrying the gold from one area, and using it to form a bridge over the poisonous water so that Gryphon can travel to the next region while avoiding the Id Monsters, which he can deal with by firing bolts of pure Griffin magic.
In addition to walking on the surface, Gryphon can also fly; but to do so, he must first make a run before jumping into the air. Between regions, a bonus level can be played, whose objective is to slide the gold bar to the left or right by shooting one or more Gryphons. Its speed increases with each shot. The bonus level ends when the Gryphon makes it across the screen.
William Wobbler
In this game, players control William Wobbler, whose goal is to collect ten clues that are scattered throughout various caverns. To accomplish this task, players have to overcome various barriers and puzzles. William's movement is controlled by a joystick, with the fire button for jumping.
Players start on the surface of an alien planet dotted with craters that serve as entrances to caverns. Collecting clues is no easy task, as a series of puzzles must be solved and barriers overcome. William's inventory can be accessed with the [I] key, and currently displays the object he is holding. When an object is to be used, it appears in William's hand and the process of using an object is automatic.
Several obstacles have to be faced, such as snakes, flying objects and droids. Snakes can be avoided by jumping over them and flying objects can be dodged. One of the caverns has no droids and has a Shining Orb. When picked up, any droids William approaches will be destroyed as the orb materializes. Other items need to be picked up, but on most occasions, William needs to be in possession of a certain item before he can pick up another.
William Wobbler was the basis of a competition around his time, in which a competition disk is supplied with the game. The idea was that the player would complete the game so that a special file would be saved on the competition disk, and then the disk would be sent to Wizard Developments. A prize was offered for the first player to complete the game.
