- Revised Instruction Manual and Solution to Solaris (atariage.com)
I remember when I was a kid and Solaris was one of those games that I had bought with my own money. I proudly inserted it into my Atari 2600 I knew right away that this game was different from the rest. It had a plot, a goal and an ending; something that was a rarity for Atari games. I was immediately fascinated and after reading the instruction manual, something I always did, I was determined to finish the game. I spent hours on my living room floor happily drawing maps by hand on graph paper and trying to reach Solaris. I never did, but the strategic game play was so good that I actually enjoyed failing and didn’t get frustrated. Time passed. I never forgot this game and over the years I would keep coming back, each time more determined to finish it. Now, decades later, the internet has finally given me the tools I needed to complete this amazing game. I have made this guide so that others can do the same.
- Lake Superior (Wikipedia)
Lake Superior is the largest freshwater lake in the world by surface area and the third-largest by volume, holding 10% of the world’s surface fresh water. Located in central North America, it is the northernmost and westernmost of the Great Lakes of North America, straddling the Canada–United States border with the Canadian province of Ontario to the north and east and the U.S. states of Minnesota to the west and Wisconsin and Michigan to the south. It drains into Lake Huron via St. Marys River, then through the lower Great Lakes to the St. Lawrence River and ultimately the Atlantic Ocean.
