Oregon Trail all day. I think that was all I learned in school circa 1991.

The MacPlay port of Star Trek: 25th Anniversary would be one game to play.

Loads of elementary school kids messed around with Kid Pix 2 on those machines.

(I mean, it's not a game, but...)

Shadowgate
Simcity

Macintosh IIci? 25 MHz 68030 + 68882 FPU, that should do you well for a lot of earlier 2D games. I know that the Mac got some of the best versions of the first two Prince of Persia games, with redrawn 640x480 graphics.

I don't see it performing better enough than the IIcx I used to have for it to not struggle with Wolfenstein 3D, though, so FPSs may be out of the question entirely. Save those for a Power Mac of some kind.

Also, if you're really lucky, it may have one of those Daystar Turbo 040 upgrades installed, basically turning it into a Quadra 700.

Well I can get Quadra 700 as well should i get it instead of 2ci ?

Yes, mainly as it's worth a fair bit more than the IICi! If you can find it, the Daystar PowerPC 601 upgrade is worth getting, I think it works on both the IICi and the Quadra. I've seen it listed on eBay a few times.

Edit: Woo, 386 posts!

Spectre VR should run smoothly on the IIci and is worth playing if you haven't already played it on PC. As for Mac exclusives - Crystal Quest?

Maraton1 is slower on PPC-Upgrade Quadra700 then the 68K Version with scanlines.
You cannot choose scanline if you have a PPC machine.

You can Play LOT's of fantastic mac-games with such an old 68k-Mac.
