Based on François Bourgeon's French comic book series from the '80s, the game follows the series' plot very closely.
As the French Revolution is about to begin, Hoel and Isa find themselves in Brittany after a series of unfortunate events. They will face a thousand dangers, travel from the European to the African shores, in a quest to discover truth about Isa's real identity.
The player controls, in turn, the actions of the daring heroine, the courageous and loving sailor, and more than fifteen other characters living towards the end of the eighteenth century.
In this compilation you can find the following three adventure titles:
Extreme 500 is a motorcycle racing simulation done with the assistance from the 1997, 250cc World Championship winning team (as advertised).
The game consists of all 3 GP classes (125, 250 and 500), racing on the World GP tracks of 1996, and it's possible to race against the clock, the computer or up to 15 other players in the multiplayer network version.
Extreme 500 incorporates several elements of motorbikes you can tweak as you please, so you have to try and fine-tune your bike to be able to get the best time.

This compilation from Sierra contains four games:
Only Rama runs in both DOS and Windows.
It is said that there is a mysterious labyrinth harboring great secrets that might fulfill the wishes of those who discover them. Two countries respectively ruled by Queen Xina and King Bodd have been competing over the right to explore the labyrinth. However, strange events started happening one after the other: the guardian of the labyrinth died, his daughter disappeared, and King Bodd apparently fell under some sort of a curse. A goblin reporter named Blount get caught in the midst of these events as he attempts to interview the queen and the king. As if that weren't enough, Blount also gets bitten by a werewolf and falls in love, and must find a way to deal with both predicaments.
Goblins Quest is the third entry in the Gobliiins series. Like its predecessors, it is a puzzle game with adventure elements; the emphasis is on solving complex tasks confined to smaller areas rather than on exploration. Most levels occupy more than one screen and allow limited navigation between different areas. As the reduction of the title to a single "i" implies, this installment only features one controllable goblin. However, at various points of the game Blount will require assistance from other player-controlled characters such as Chump the parrot, Ooya the magician, and Fulbert the snake. In addition, Blount's own spontaneous transformation into a werewolf may affect the solution of some puzzles. The hero will also undergo a few other mutations and drastically change his size during the course of the game.
This is an adventure game about the end of the millennium and the fate of the human race.
The object of the game is to collect coloured orbs and artifacts to redeem evil spirits. To accomplish it, you must figure out what sin each spirit is guilty of, which artifact represents it and what colour is it associated with. Then you have to get the correct colour orb or orbs, the correct artifact, enter the correct sin room and do your work. It's not as easy as it may seem.

You are on the lost island of Alanna - located somewhere west of Cyprus, Mediterranean Sea - and have to find its treasure. To do that, you have to solve several puzzles, much like in The 7th Guest.
This short game was distributed freely to Cherry Coke buyers and, as a marketing strategy, The Coca Cola Company included several clues on its website and on specially marked Cherry Coke bottles (these clues never appear in the game).
