"That's all we've got." The dispatcher spoke with the deliberate and unemotional tone that always signified trouble. "As Regional Marshall it's up to you. We don't want anything fancy here, not another 'Ganymede Incident.' Just find out if there are any survivors and get them out. This was Settler Plot. You know... families."
"Children?"
"Yes."
"Damn!"

The Colony was one of the first 3D FPS Adventure games on Mac, PC, and Amiga. I spent hours playing this game but never solved it. David Alan Smith (the developer) has since released the game's source on Github, but it would be nice to have a compiled version that ran well on modern systems. Many write-ups of the game (including the one on Wikipedia) state that the DOS version was black and white only. Not true! With the right hardware, the DOS version was in color. Players could toggle between two display modes - wireframe and filled polygon.
