Volcanoes: Life on the Edge Download PC

Volcanoes: Life on the Edge is a 1996 interactive CD-ROM published by Corbis. It recounts the adventure of photojournalist Roger Russmeyer, who spent a series of months chasing volcanoes. Discover Magazine deemed it a satisfying title about Earth science. Technology Review deemed the title both the most conventional and arresting of Corbis' output. Newsweek described the project as "well-wrought". The Washington Post deemed it a first-rate CD-ROM documentary. The Sydney Morning Herald disliked the " humdrum photo-essays about low-key eruptions". After releasing A Passion for Art: Renoir, Cezanne, Matisse, and Dr. Barnes; Critical Mass: America's Race to Build the Atomic Bomb; and Volcanoes: Life on the Edge, Corbis gained a reputation for high quality work. MacUser praised the well-organised interface while Popular Science enjoyed the "stunning" photographs. MacWorld gave the game 7.2/10.
