Hes Games is a 1984 sports game released for the Commodore 64 by HESware.
It was originally developed by 321 Software and the Apple II conversion was done by Philip Thomas Kovilakath. It was released by Americana as Go For The Gold and Gold Medal Games elsewhere. The 1986 COSMI CORP release of Gold Medal Games for the C64 lists the developer as Celery Software. The game inspired other developers - the Weightlifting is very similar to the same event in "World Games", and the Diving and Archery can be found in "The Games, Summer Ed.", both by Epyx.
Reception
InfoWorld in 1984 stated that HES Games "may be one of the best" of several Olympics-related games, especially praising the weightlifting simulation.[2] The game was positively reviewed by Zzap!64 magazine who gave it a 95% rating.[3]
