This one is only a musical slide-show.

Iron Seed, on the other hand, is a fully functional shareware version (in addition to the fact that the full one is free too). It's from the same development team that had originally worked on In Pursuit of Greed (Channel 7), and is features a soundtrack by Andrew Sega.

Here's a shareware version of Delta Hydra, a sci-fi RPG published by Webfoot Technologies, Inc., which actually has drawn my attention to this publisher in the first place :)

[Edit] Just found a demo of 4th Generation: 4THGEN.ZIP

[Edit2] Okay, a quick search through the Public Shareware Library CDs at cd.textfiles.com gave the following games:
Bubble Pop: BUBBLEPP.ZIP [Added to the site]
H2O: H2OGAME.ZIP
TwinBlok: TWINBLOK.ZIP

Found what appears to be the complete set of archives of the Magic Candle II playable demo (I've found a single part of it earlier on some shovelware CD but couldn't find the other half back then): [links removed]

[Edit] Links removed since it wasn't a demo of Magic Candle II after all.

There are also playable demo versions of real time tactics games, Ambush at Sorinor and Walls of Rome, by the same developers (Mindcraft Software): SORNDEMO.ZIP, 1ROMEDMO.ARJ

There's another distributive of Yendorian Tales Chapter 2 v2.10, with the only difference that it has an extra file with the ordering information for Australian customers: YENDOR2.ZIP

The shareware distributive of Yendorian Tales: The Tyrants of Thaine I've mentioned above is v1.0, BTW.
