The MacVenture games is a series of four adventure games introducing a characteristic menu-based point-and-click interface. They were originally developed for the Apple Macintosh by ICOM Simulations: #''Déjà Vu'' (1985) #''Uninvited'' (1986) #''Shadowgate'' (1987) #''Deja Vu II: Lost in Las Vegas'' (1988) All these games have been released on other platforms including Commodore Amiga, Apple II, Atari ST, Commodore 64, IBM Personal Computer (PC), Pocket PC and Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). This article is about the original Macintosh versions which introduced new interface ideas to the adventure game genre and were blueprints for the other versions. ==History== The MacVenture engine was written in 1985 for the first game in the series, ''Déjà Vu''. Making the entire game fit together with system software on two 400 k single-sided floppy disks proved to be quite a challenge and special image compression routines had to be written to accomplish this. A handful of sequels such as ''Beyond Shadowgate'' and ''Shadowgate 64'' were later made, with only the background story in common with the MacVenture games. The rights to the MacVentures are currently maintained by Zojoi. The "MacVenture" name was used in loading screens and about boxes – in the original releases for other platforms it was translated, e.g. "Atari Venture" or "PC Venture". MacVenture is the only of these used for referring to the game series in other contexts. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「MacVenture」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
