Understanding 9/11Clockwiser Amiga game + load-up matrix
Audio With External Links Item Preview
Clockwiser is a puzzle game for the Commodore Amiga, CD32, MS-DOS and MS-Windows 3, released in 1994. The game was created by Team Hoi, based in the Netherlands.
In the Clockwiser game, you need to change an arrangement of puzzle elements with different properties in the left half of the screen to match an arrangement in the right half of the screen. To do so, you can drag a range inside the left half, then click on one of the clocks to shift elements along the range in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction.
To play Clockwiser, depending on which of the included versions among the files you run, you might need to have the Clockwiser table.png image at hand, in order to find the letter that is required to proceed. This was implemented as a simple copy protection at the time.
Other available data includes MP3 audio files of Ramon Braumuller's Clockwiser soundtrack, game videos and several screenshots featuring Metin Seven's Clockwiser graphics. Please note that the graphics were made on and for CRT screens, and can look harsh on sharp modern screens. Most emulators can also mimic a CRT screen.
In the YouTube video playlist of Team Hoi games you can find some Clockwiser videos.

TEAM HOI
Team Hoi was one of the first game development teams in the Netherlands, existing of Reinier van Vliet (game design and code), Metin Seven (game design and graphics) and Ramon Braumuller (audio). Team Hoi was active from the late 1980s to the early 2000s, creating demonstrations, commercial games and three music editors (SIDmon, Digital Mugician and Syntrax) for multiple 16-bit computer systems, such as the Commodore Amiga, CD32 console, MS-DOS and Windows.
The productions were distributed internationally on traditional media: diskettes and CD-ROMs, predominantly before the dawn of the public internet, and reviewed in many major computer magazines around the world, including The One, Amiga World, Amiga Format, CU Amiga, Amiga Mania, The Games Machine and Zzap 64 / Amiga.
Among the publishers of Team Hoi's productions was the legendary Thalamus, publisher of the classic Commodore 64 games Armalyte, Creatures, Delta, Quedex and Sanxion.
In the early years — before their hit game Hoi — Team Hoi was named Soft Eyes (a.k.a. Softeyes), and included a fourth partner: Pieter Opdam. After the first Soft Eyes games Pieter emigrated to the UK to work for Team 17 on the first Worms game.
During the Soft Eyes period Reinier, Metin and Ramon were also active in the Amiga demo scene as members of the Digital Force International (DFI), and created a range of music demos featuring whimsical a cappella raps that became widely known among Amiga users.
In the later years, coder Peter Schaap took care of MS-DOS and Windows 3.1 conversions of Clockwiser, released in 1994.
