I recently picked the following games up. I don't have the right equiptment to test this stuff, but from what I can tell. These games were localized by Soft World, one of the oldest PC developers / publishers on the island:

http://www.mobygames.com/company/soft-world

I could only find one seller selling these games online, and his prices were easily $200 - $300 per game, though they weren't selling, so that makes his listing price irrelevant imo.

Here are some pics (I have one more, Knight's Legend, but somehow I forgot to take pics of it).

These games are up for best offer for now. Everything is untested and sold as is, but I honestly think these are more collectors pieces than anything else anyway.


The History of the Empires of the Milky Way

This seems to be an original game developed by Soft-World, so I'll probably keep it unless made an offer I can't refuse.


Here is another Taiwan original, made by a company called Crazy Software or something like that.

Like the Milky Way game, I'll probably hold onto ths one too, unless made a nice offer.


Now for the other games:

Might and Magic II:

AD&D: Secrets of the Silver Blades:

AD&D: Knights of Krynn

AD&D: Champions of Krynn

Anyone have any idea on price for these games? I don't collect PC games, but I honestly think these are pretty cool and are the type of thing that belongs in a museum. Also, anyone interested in buying these or know of a PC games collector forum where I could try to sell these?

​Thanks!

The AD&D Krynn games are the kind of games that required you to look up "journal entries" in an included pamphlet. If this set is lacking those it'll lower the value (then again, if its not in English, I'm not sure what the interest would be... I'm not aware of people who collect foreign variants, but I hang out more on console than PC forums anyway).

Some of them have some thick books, though I'm not sure if there is an additional item missing or not. Thanks for the info!

@Everyone: I sold Three KIngdoms, but have the following left

Might and Magic II:
AD&D: Secrets of the Silver Blades:
Hong Kong Mahjong:
Bandit Kings:
AD&D: Knights of Krynn
Iron Lord:
AD&D: Champions of Krynn

If interested, I could do $20 each per game, or $100 for all eight. (plus shipping costs).

Thanks guys!
