Line 57:
* ''[[Halloween Harry]]'' (otherwise known as ''[[Alien Carnage]]'') is an interesting case. First it was released as ''[[Halloween Harry]]'' (with the first episode as shareware), but some thought the name would [[Viewers Are Morons|make people think]] it was a holiday game. So they renamed it to ''[[Alien Carnage]]'' and swapped the first and third episodes. Gamers could get the (formerly) third part for free now. That leaves only the second and fourth episodes that you had to pay for. It's all been released as freeware now, but it makes you scratch your head, doesn't it?
* ''[[Mini Robot Wars]]''
* ''[[Dungeons of the Unforgiven]]'' by Moraffware. The free section contained 20 large levels and 4 bosses. Any attempt to enter a non-free area triggered a pop-up telling the player to 'phone the publisher to buy the full version (price on application).
== Other Shareware ==
* ''[[As-Easy-As]]'', a spreadsheet designed to rival the then-dominant ''Lotus 1-2-3''.
