`12.Feb.2003` Amiga Arena (ANF)	Game: FlagSweeper v0.5b Olaf Köbnik writes: With FlagSweeper version 0.5b is a new tiny minesweeper game by Richard "DawnBringer" Fhager at this homepage (title link) online. This is an early version! Richard told me by the way, he still works on the Akanoid clone "BabeAnoid" but doing it slowly! After Richard thought of abandon further development due to a lack of feedback I would like to ask you for letting the programmer know if you like the program. This is also valid for "BabeAnoid", just let the programmer know. Richard Fhager is known for his freeware games like dawnVideoPoker, Spaceball2000, Tittris or Fnurr2000.
