Shanghai II: Dragon's Eye

Match pairs of tiles in Brodie Lockard's original Macintosh demonstration of Shanghai II.

Brodie Lockard, 1991

Clear the tile board

Shanghai II demo tile board

Shanghai II builds on the original game's tile-matching puzzle: find exposed pairs, clear them, and try to remove the entire pile before you run out of moves. Its Macintosh demo presents the game's colourful tiles and full board.

This is the original promotional demo, not the commercial game. The included read-me by author Brodie Lockard identifies it as a demo and describes the additional layouts, tile sets, music, variations and editing tools offered by the full release. Systemless loads the original 68K application for browser play. Click an exposed tile, then double-click its matching exposed tile to remove the pair.

Permission

This unchanged promotional demo was distributed to introduce Shanghai II. Its included read-me, written by game author Brodie Lockard, explicitly calls it a demo and describes the retail game's additional art, sounds, layouts, variations and construction tools. Classic Macintosh Game Demos preserves the demo and documents contemporary demo-disc distribution. The archive does not contain the retail game and has no express redistribution clause.
