Kalli & Co.

DOS 1994

Kalli & Co. is an advergame that puts the player behind the wheel of a Volkswagen Golf. The objective is to drive along a road as far as possible. To make this task more difficult, the road is full of obstacles such as oil stains or balls rolling down the street that must be avoided, as any contact with them means the end of the race instantly. Additional four-leaf clovers can be collected by driving over them, which gives the car driver extra points. After the race, if the result was good enough, the scores can be entered into a high score list.

New Beetle Tracks and Gaps

Windows 1997

New Beetle Tracks and Gaps is an exclusive promotional game for the New Beetle in German. It is a modified remake of Stone Age, in which you must take your new yellow Beetle from one end of the map to the other using moving platforms and configuring them in advance to make the journey possible. The moving platforms will move only in the direction indicated by the arrows marked on them (up, down, left, left, right, up and down, left and right and all four directions). In some levels there will also appear keys (sometimes cards or tools) needed to unlock some passages. Some blocks will crumble after the player steps over them and others will function as teleporters. Each level has a time limit to be completed, and the less time the player takes, the more points he will earn. The player has 5 lives and each level has a password.
