Games
Stellar Stone developed a total of eight known games—three drag racing games (Taxi Racer, Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing, and Midnight Race Club: Supercharged!), a puzzle game (Total Mahjongg and Shanghai), a hunting game (Remington Big Buck Trophy Hunt), a pinball game (Total Pinball), and two real-time strategy games based on the American Civil War (Gettysburg: Civil War Battles and Ultimate Civil War Battles: Robert E. Lee vs. Ulysses S. Grant). These games were all produced by the US-based company GameMill Publishing, with the exception of Taxi Racer, which was produced by Best Buys Interactive. All of the games developed by the company used the proprietary game engine Eternity, developed by company co-owner Sergey Titov of TS Group Entertainment. Their best-known release was the infamous Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing, which received overwhelmingly negative review scores for being "blatantly unfinished in nearly every way". The game was a pre-alpha release and, despite Stellar Stone's release of a patch, is still considered to be of very poor quality.

Famous quotes containing the word games:
“In the past, it seemed to make sense for a sportswriter on sabbatical from the playpen to attend the quadrennial hawgkilling when Presidential candidates are chosen, to observe and report upon politicians at play. After all, national conventions are games of a sort, and sports offers few spectacles richer in low comedy.”
—Walter Wellesley (Red)
“At the age of twelve I was finding the world too small: it appeared to me like a dull, trim back garden, in which only trivial games could be played.”
—Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
“In 1600 the specialization of games and pastimes did not extend beyond infancy; after the age of three or four it decreased and disappeared. From then on the child played the same games as the adult, either with other children or with adults. . . . Conversely, adults used to play games which today only children play.”
—Philippe Ariés (20th century)
