This file has everything for SUSAN, including version 2.5 of the program for the Macintosh, two sets of add-on color art, a manual with strategy tips, and an advanced intelligence file. SUSAN includes intelligent computer opponents that use a simulated neural-network to actually learn by playing. After every game, your opponent will evaluate what you each did right and wrong. In this way it can learn and improve from game to game. Because an opponent learns everything it knows from you, intelligence files record your playing style and techniques. This means that your opponents are always near your skill level. And you can share intelligence files with your friends!

SUSAN 2.5 introduces a new rule to handle draws, plus Competition mode which makes computer opponents smarter without slowing down, and a variety of other improvements and fixes. SUSAN 2.5 works with System 6.0.2 or newer, including System 7. It supports SUSAN Colors and SUSAN Colors #2 if you have them.

SUSAN Colors contains great graphics for folks who want a subdued, elegant look for SUSAN. If you want excitement and stimulation, try SUSAN Colors #2. These graphic add-ons require 640K available, and a color or grayscale display. You can use these graphics by placing one of the SUSAN Colors files in the same folder as the program. Or, you can leave them in the Art folder and double click the one you want to use.

I believe that this program will run on all models of the Macintosh® computer, however, I do not make any claims or warranties as to its fun, safety or fitness for any purpose. SUSAN, Enigma and Enigmatic are trademarks of Enigma Games. Macintosh is a registered trademark of Apple Computer, Inc.
