this game i use to play....

Post by laurelry »

This was an old game, I believe I use to play it on my daddy-o's DOS, but...

I remember that you have many levels and I think with each level you had to fight a boss. You also had to find keys to unlock other parts of it.
In this game there were ghosts that looked similar to the pacman ghosts, and even though you would run through them I remember you could still stay alive. I mean after a while of doing this im sure you would die..but thats all I remember.

can any one tell me the name, where I might be able to find it and if it would work on linux.
Im pretty sure I can use an emulator, but maybe which one.

Also after reading about ten pages of the topics I know that it is not crusher castle and chips challenge. But I think it would be similar to both of those since I thought it could be either of them.

Also does any one know where I can get Math Blaster for free?
and would that work on linux?

thanks.

um even if I knew the game, we couldn't give you an emulator or ROM because well...it's illegal. But you can search a certain site that I've HEARD of, but never ACTUALLY visited, only heard it's quite good, mind you. *Psst Message me Psst* Um, so ... yeah.

If we can work out the name of the game we may very well be able to provide a link, as for emulators and such well since this is a DOS game and DOSBox is compatible with Linux I see no issues there.

So cazgotsaved, you only just got back, try not to jump the gun next time. Anyway sorry laurelry, I have no idea what game you're talking about, hopefully someone else will be able to help.

There are quite a few games in the Wolfenstein series, with any luck this is the one you're after.

No idea, but there's like a 1/2 dozen games in the series now so at some point maybe...

It has ghosts... if you use the level cheat, there's a level that's built just like the first one, only that instead of guards you have pacman ghosts
