I know some of the more complex Apple II games seem to 'chug' a bit and I was wondering if that could be fixed with acceleration?  On a whim I tried playing Karateka at IIgs speed and it was kind of fun (a little hard though as it was a bit too fast).Maybe something like a turn based RPG could benefit?  I'll have to play around and see I suppose.

Ultima V comes to mind. The enemy AI can be pretty slow, and the game is
turn-based.
