Excel 98 had an Easter egg which was like Magic Carpet! If I recall correctly, you fly over a twisted purple and orange landscape while an obelisk emits the credits.

95 had the “Hall of Tortured Souls”—a 2.5D first-person walker—which was more Doomlike.

There was no Excel 98.
They mean the excel included in Office `97. That's the disk I'm holding in my hand and that's the version I experienced the weird flying easter egg.
Whoops! Yes, thanks.
There was on the Mac.
