Seven Days' music desk has snapped in half from the collective weight of new albums submitted for review by Vermont musicians. Somewhere beneath the broken.
The synopsis:
For Mac gamers in the 90s, the people of Ambrosia Software were rockstars. Heroes. And with brilliant games like Maelstrom, Escape Velocity, Harry the Handsome Executive, Apeiron, and more, plus a company newsletter that spoke directly to the fans, they could do no wrong. In light of Ambrosia s recent closure (finally!), Secret History of Mac Gaming author Richard Moss recounts the studio s high and lowpoints and tells the stories behind its best games.
