Legacy
As the first networking-aware software when users only used NetWare to share files and printers, sales demonstrations typically ended with Snipes. SuperSet retained ownership of the game although shipping with NetWare; Drew Major reported that many customers told him of employees' Snipes deathmatches after work hours. Novell also used it as a stress test to certify network cards and drivers as NetWare-compatible. A newer implementation of the game was developed and shipped with NetWare Lite 1.1 in September 1991. Its NLSNIPES.EXE executable had a filesize of less than 18 KB. It was replaced by the NetWars 2.06 game, that came bundled with Personal NetWare 1.0 and Novell DOS 7 since late 1993.
