DOS Games Discussion

Still waiting for my DVD. I guess it should come some time this week.

TSM, you're getting me excited again For the past week or so, had got other things to keep me from thinking about this.

I'm finding homebrew games/programs quite interesting. There's Lemmings that someone ported to NDS. You can have subway train maps for NDS. There homebrew encyclopedia for PSP.

What happens when you get a bird who likes music and NDS? Has anyone seen this before?

It could be one of the Columns game? There are different kinds Columns I, Columns II, Columns III, Beyong Columns etc. There are also variants/clones of Columns such as Hexavga, Gemstorm.

Thanks emmzee for holding the contest. Still haven't recover from the surprise. Congratulations to TSM & Unknown_K too. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year to everyone. This Christmas seem more like a New Year to me, many changes happening in real life and different kind of surp...

Could it be Sleepwalker?

Maybe if you could state what the character do in the game or the objective, it might help.

Speaking of Marble Drop... I got the game from HOTU and it just said Improper instalation... any ideas? I'm not too sure about how it's altered to make games run without the CD but a site on the internet stated: ------------------------------------------------------------- Special Instructions: Run...

For Maxis games, I ever only played only Marble Drop and it has been one of my favourite. I had played it a long time back on my Win 95 PC but never finished all the levels. I owned the CD-ROM with hard copy manual as well as "Best-seller" version CD-ROM that comes with an online manual. :...

This is the only thing I can think of:

Been wanting to buy this but haven't found a local video store that imports it yet.

There are actually a number of mouse only games or games that you can either choose to use keyboard or mouse. Just don't know where to start recommending you.

Have you played / finished Lemmings, Zeek the Geek, there are sone online flash games played using the mouse.

Look here at the discussion at the bottom of the page. Someone wrote information about it.

Is it Marble Drop?

If you want to see the error messages, Right click on your exe file. Select "Properties". Go to the "Program" tab and untick "Close on exit". Then when you run the exe file, the window won't automatically close. How about reading some guides using dosbox first and see w...

Okay, I didn't know before Classic Concentration, there was an even older gameshow in black & white called Concentration (that started before I was born). Anyway, perhap the newer gameshow got more popular so they made dos games based on it.

It is better to use ScummVM to run these kind of point & click adventures games.

Sounds like that old TV game show Concentration LOL The old TV game show is not called "Concentration". It's called "Classic Concentration". Anyway, there are 2 games based on it. Classic Concentration & the sequel, Classic Concentration 2nd Edition . Personally, I like the ...

Good job. :thumbsup: Very organised with screenshots and reviews and easy to navigate. Just a question, on the front page under popular games, what does the green and red triangles stand for? I must been out-out-touch about remakes. Wow, there a Pushover remake. I always wanted to have a level edito...

hey youve heard of the DS cookbook what about the TouchDic? and i have a lite, much better than the phat DS, the lighting is better, the screens are bigger (not by much), better clour, lighter, better stylus, just be careful not to get dust into the cover Looking at the screenshots of the Korean To...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- By the way, Gameboy Advance SP is supposed to be backward compatible with Gameboy Colour & the orginal Gameboy. However, when I tried to slot in my old cartridge into the Gameboy Advance, it seem that the slot is ve...

For those DOS / Windows games CD-ROMs that I bought with boxes. I put them with the manual back into the CD case and into the boxes. Then they go into the cupboard. Probably that how I keep things. Even my calculator still has it's box. :D No wonder I have too much stuff. :rolleyes: Anyway, I've onl...

There had been different views over the years:
