Cinemaware Anthology: 1986-1991 (2014)

This fascinating collection from legendary developer Cinemaware gathers some of the most highly-regarded and successful games of the late 80s and early 90s. The anthology perfectly captures the golden era of videogames, inviting you to rescue a princess in medieval England, become the boss of Chicago's Mafia, or fight off invaders with a jetpack in *Rocket Ranger*. Including a dozen titles like the iconic *It Came From the Desert* and the *TV Sports* series, this package offers players a curated time capsule showcasing the developer's signature cinematic approach to gameplay, meticulously preserved for a new generation. The anthology stands as a landmark release for Starbreeze Publishing AB because it represents the preservation of a legacy they would later acquire and champion. Starbreeze’s subsequent purchase of the Cinemaware brand and its classic IPs underlines the immense value and quality contained within this compilation. This collection is therefore essential to the Starbreeze story, serving as the foundational library for which they became the new custodians, ensuring these influential and genre-defining titles would not be lost to time and could be reimagined for future audiences.
