List of free closed source games

It is the role itself which probably was not stated on the credit source it was taken from. The entry was created back in 2000, and it would be good if it could be updated if there are errors. Someone preferably should own the original game to make scans of the relevant manual page with the credits ...

Isometric mech arcade shooter [Outbound]

Thanks for locating it, I'll make a submission at MobyGames for it.

PS. @MrFlibble: your first link shows a trailing 'equal' sign attached to it, not sure if it's just my browser or something else.

URL links forum formatting doesn't work as described?

For some reason the forum posts cannot use URL links embedded in text, as described in the 'chain-link' icon toooltips list shown above the editing window. This used to work before, but seems to have been removed in the latest forum updates? e.g. the tooltip 'Insert URL: [url]http://url[/url] or [ur...

DOSBox versus CD-Rom directly problem

One thing I know from some other very old games; some of them always expect the CD to be drive D, and DOSBox need to be configured to mount your E: as a D: within DOSBox in these cases.

Four players in the small room with monster

I doubt it, TagPro is online timed CTF, no monster, 4v4 players, the team lose/wins, not individual players.

DOSBox versus CD-Rom directly problem

Regarding Knight's Chase, a game I don't own, do you have a plain DOS version or a combined DOS/Windows release? (Most pictures of the covers from this game on Mobygames are combined) If there is a Win95 version on the disc, maybe that can be used better if you configure the game executables as Wind...

Not sure there is anything that matches in the zombie-themed PS1 game list here: https://www.mobygames.com/game/group:8038/platform:playstation/sort:moby_score/page:1/ I was thinking Evil Dead when you mentioned the chainsaw, but the environment is not a city. Also the Resident Evil games may have l...

I've never played it, but the Amiga version seems to have some installation instructions at HOL.

3D adventure/action game

I haven't played much in this game style, but there are some websites which may have some suggestions here:

Reddit might be a good place to ask also.
