Cuthbert in Space is an arcade game where you are the shuttle pilot for a large spaceship, travelling from world to world, seeking treasures and resources.  Each planet has two phases, where you have to fly the shuttle about the screen collecting the fuel cells which appear on various platforms, and avoiding the aliens.  Having re-fuelled, the second phase is then where you fly your shuttle around collecting the treasure which drops onto the platforms.

Deathstrike is a rendition of the classic arcade game, Scramble - where you have to fly a spaceship through caverns avoiding the various defences (or blowing them up), in order to reach and destroy the enemy Mothership.

Farmer is a platform game where you play the role of a farmer who needs to harvest various crops by jumping between the platform fields, avoiding some of the big drops and the infestation of monsters roaming the fields.

Lands of Havoc is a large arcade adventure (with over 2000 screens), where you have to roam various themed areas looking for various items to allow you onto the next stage of your quest, whilst avoiding or shooting the various creatures left behind by the High Vanish to administer his evil grip over the land. A series of layout map cards are provided to help you with the initial few areas of the game.

The King is based on the classic arcade game, Donkey Kong, where you have to climb the platforms in order to reach the top and save the princess, whilst The King throws and rolls barrels at you.  You can smash the barrels with a mallet, or jump them, but beware that they may turn toxic!

Vroom is a popular arcade game placing you at the wheel of a Formula 1 racing car, as you strive to complete various grand prix circuits and beat the other cars on the track.
