no deciding. rush n attack; over and over again, until you beat it.

Great stuff in there. Thanks for sharing! I remember spending hours with Stunts, as well as others.

Not the same site, but related. I bought Theme Hospital from GOG yesterday. I can't believe how fun it still is despite relatively butt-ugly graphics! Couldn't put it down. Even the menus are in DOS. Forgot it was pre-Windows 95.

 

[DigDog]

bump because this thread deserves more attention.

Suddenly I have games on my Chromebook =D

This is really cool. I already have all my old games set up locally in Dosbox, but see a lot of other good stuff on there.

 

[Carson Dyle]

Oh, hell yeah! Lemmings!!

 

[OlyAR15]

But no Mechwarrior 2. Sad.

 

[Whitestar127]

Good stuff! :thumbsup:
Prince of Persia, yeah!

I was a little giddy when I saw the old school "Gold Box" Dungeons and Dragons games. I wonder how they'll hold up?

I might have to fire up Ultima 2,3, 5, and ... crap, probably all of them...

 

[Sulaco]

So here's a question for you guys: Can you save?

I started a Master of Orion game and got surprisingly immersed in it again before I had to leave.
Can you "save" progress for those longer games?

I guess I could always just leave the browser open...:whiste:

I still have the Queen of Krynn box and all contents, including receipt around here somewhere. Loved those games.

 

[lupi]

Supaplex,Lemmings,Prehistoric,Vikings!!
Damn,such a wave of nostalgia..That DOSBox sound bug is annoying though.Great work!

 

[CPA]

do they have war of the lance up?

Yep. However, apparently Champions of Krynn has a bug that won't allow a player to go past the character creation screen. May be similar issue with this game.

Okay, just tried to play it and got to the old-school style DRM: "Type the first word in the message section" Problem is, I can't find the message section and there is no manual with the game. Maybe I'm just missing it. lol

edit: just hit space to get through DRM

 

[rivethead]

Pool of Radiance!!
Curse of the Azure Bonds!!!

Those two games ate many of my teenage nights.

I'm kind of glad they don't currently work.....I need more sleep now that I'm an old man.

 

[microAmp]

Thanks OP, something for me to do at work...

Ugh...wish they had said that, was trying all the Dragonlance games, this was the only one that got past character creation until that drm...
