==Computer games==
''Amazon'' is a graphical text adventure game created by Michael Crichton and produced by John Wells under Trillium Corp. ''Amazon'' was released in the United States in 1984 and it runs on Apple II, Atari ST, Commodore 64, and the DOS systems. ''Amazon'' was considered by some to be a breakthrough in the way it updated [[text adventure]] games by adding color graphics and music. It sold more than 100,000 copies, making it a significant commercial success at the time.

In 1999, Crichton founded Timeline Computer Entertainment with [[David A. Smith|David Smith]]. Despite signing a multi-title publishing deal with [[Eidos Interactive]], only one game was ever published, ''Timeline''. Released on 8 December 2000 for the PC, the game received poor reviews and sold poorly.⏎
