Tagged for notability for 5 years; I couldn't establish notability Boleyn (talk) 19:45, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I suspect notability but can't prove it without a pile of old magazines. It was "named 1993 CD-ROM game of the year by the magazine MacWorld" (Newsweek[1]) The Macintosh Bible Guide to Games by Bart Farkas and Christopher Breen on Google Books snippet view seems to have a review, Software Reviews on File, Volume 9 (Facts on File, Incorporated, 1993) has one from MACUSER, and there's a few other results on Google Books that can't be read (e.g. The business of multimedia by Nina Schuyler). --Colapeninsula (talk) 00:16, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Mobygames lists four publications which reviewed the game. Allgame, listed as a WP:VG/RS, published a game review on its website. Even if one or another of the sources mentioned thus far turns out to be little more than a numerical rating, it still seems to me that there are more than enough reliable sources out there with reasonably significant coverage to satisfy WP:GNG. --Mike Agricola (talk) 01:33, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
This site also shows a review in another German magazine. --Odie5533 (talk) 14:29, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I also discovered that Computer Gaming World (Issue 109, August 1993, pg. 90) published a fairly in-depth review. --Mike Agricola (talk) 21:54, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - If in the lead paragraph, it cites a reliable source describing the subject being awarded with a MacWorld Game of the Year award - remove the notability tag instead of spree-nomming it. - hahnch e n 23:58, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
