Software Suggestions for a B&W G3
Posted by: EvieSigma on 2017-04-22 09:41:18
My B&W G3 (350MHz) running OS 9.2.2 has been kinda sitting idle...the only software it has on it is stuff that came on the OS 9 install disks and Office 2001.

Any suggestions for games/fun software that will run well with a 350MHz processor and a stock Rage 128 16MB video card?

Cro-Mag Rally and Bugdom are classics from that era, and I think we're bundled with some of the iMac G3s of the time. Also, Star Wars episode 1 pod racer was pretty cool, and also from that era.

Connect it up to a 1920x1200 monitor and play Civilization. Quake and Quake II were popular at the time. Tomb Raider I to IV should be most playable too. StarCraft was a favourite of ours in 1999.

Suggestion: go to the Macintosh Garden and sort software by year. Anything before the year 2000 should be most playable.
