RiscAction 2

RiscAction 2 was released in 1998 and consisted entirely of games that had previously been published on RISC User discs. Whereas the first RiscAction disc concentrated mainly on action games, this second compilation placed more emphasis on games requiring thought rather than reflexes: desktop board games, card games and similar, with just a few action games thrown in. As with the first RiscAction disc, the version presented on this CD has been updated to ensure that the latest versions of all programs are present, and it should be noted that some of the games will be unable to record high scores etc. if run from the CD. An extra game has also been added: Klondike, a previously unpublished fifth game in Alan Stout's Patience series.
