Please help me find some games

Post by guest »

I'm looking for a game that might be called "Blob". It has this guy that collects something and goes to the transporter to complete the level. The game has (purplish ? colored) blobs that slowly transforms itself into different shapes after certain levels of the game.

Also, there's this one game that has this purple jeep/car that jumps over ditches. Hmm...enough info.? Yeah, that's all I can remember of it. :laugh:

I'm also looking for the Wheel Of Fortune game.

Does anyone know where I can obtain a copy of the Funhouse cd or all the games from it? It has a good collection of games such as Commander Keen, Duke Nukem, etc. (that's all the games that I can recall from it...). More info. is that someone I know used to work for CCC (Computer Curriculum Corporation) and that's where he obtained the Funhouse game cd.

The only jumping car that I remember is Jumpbug for M.A.M.E.

Which version / publisher, there are different kinds? The earliest one I remember playing was a poor coloured dos version. Hmm, where did I put it.

For the shareware versions of Commander Keen & Duke Nukem, you may find them at http://www.dosgames.com/search.php These games are made by Apogee, now known as 3D Realm and 3D Realm is EDSA protected. There is no way anyone would be able to post a link to you here unless it's a buy link.

Thus the only way to get a full version is:
(1) Get it from someone who has it
(2) Buy from an online store
(3) Search for it through a search engine. I've ever seen a site offering it but I doubt it'll last long.

Sory I don't know what other games are on you cd so I can't direct you to them.

Thanks for the responses everyone. Hmm...I think I can find most of the games on that funhouse cd here on dosgames.com...hehe...guess I should've looked harder.

I kind of figured that there might be many versions of the wheel of fortune game. The wheel of fortune version that I was looking for is probably the "poor coloured one" that JKSM was referring to. Hope he'll find it someday...hehe...jk.

(Sigh...) I was hoping that someone would know which blob game that I was referring to. Thanks Wally*Won Kenobie for the suggestion of "a boy and his blob". Unfortunately, in the game that I'm looking for the blob is the enemy.

Once again, thanks for the responses. I'll look into the info. posted. Please let me know if anyone finds out something more about the game inquiries that I posted and maybe some suggestions on any good games. :)

I hope that you still visit the forum. If not you've missed your chance finding the game. By chance, I was searching for something and came across this site that states it offers freeware/shareware games. There's the very old dos freeware Wheel of Fortune there (the last game). This one's has the purple and blue wheel. Quite likely the one that you're looking for.

However, if you're looking some other version where the wheel was red, green and yellow, look here

I still remember some other dos wheel of fortune with simplier graphics. Guess there are really too many versions.
