Rum Runner is a stealth based ship game. You are the captain of the your own vessel (call it whatever inappropriate name you want). You must navigate your way to the port towns under liquor ban and bring them the Rum.

To do this you will have to avoid government ships out to enforce the law and fight of pirates, and maybe do some pirating themselves, and the pirate ships that roam the seas looking for prey. There is also the un-tamable sea and weather to deal with trying their best to wreck you.

As the you progress through the game you can by better ships with larger sails to travel faster as well as different hull types to allow for a greater carrying capacity or to sail even faster. As you become a better smuggler you can gain the protection of the pirates as they do not wish to see the Rum gone and any pirate that attacks you would be attacked by those pirates that are no unable to get any Rum.

The final goal is to be able to set up your own fleet of smuggling ships and maybe even go legitimate.

In Manaic you play as a crazed killer working your way through the corrupt and evil of the city. Though due to your lack of sanity the line of what counts as corrupt and evil can be very subjective.

The goal of the game is to kill the evil that drove you to this insanity and (hopefully) return to some semblance of normality where the murder of others no longer seems the best option out. If at you are caught during your murder spree through the city you will be sent off to an asylum where you will degenerate further as you are driven further into insanity by the knowledge that you have failed to kill the evil.

As the main aspects of the game are to stealthily kill those who have committed evil acts and escape undetected. However due to the fact you are unstable (and you cant spell slaughter without laughter) as you approach your targets there is an increasing chance of the character breaking into manic laughter.
