I used to play lotus!!!! But can't find it anymore.

Post by slorrando »

People, I used to play Lotus on my computer. I don't know if the title was more than just Lotus, but is was a race game. You could chooce between a few lotus cars and you could create your own track with trucks crossing or with turbo zones and more. I hope someone can tell me more about this game and where I can find more info. I am desperatley seeking!

Thanks.

obviously you haven't done any searches for roms in a while. They are almost impossible to find (or at least the console roms are) nevertheless, i will do a search for the Amiga Rom and Emulator and play what i hope will be a good game

It was really easy to guess. I can't remember it, though.

Well, in that I'm only interested in SNES roms, they are relatively easy to find.

Lotus was actually a DOS game (made by Gremlin Interactive). There was a shareware version that only gave you one car on one track. I don't know where to download it, though.

I think the full name is "Lotus III Raceway".

well if u can't find amiga roms then look for the FAR FAR FAR superior machine THE ATARI ST :D and although this isn't the rom site its actually a dedicated ST site which can steer you to the right way to finding the games do a search for it-> the little green desktop

Hi, i had that game a long time ago! :cuccoan:
I dont know if you are talking about the same...i just remember that it was called Lotus III and it was a demo version and i could only drive a green car :) I was too young thats all i remember. It was the coolest racing game i had with great music, perfect for those years with dos OS.

Lotus 3
Life & Death 1, 2, and 4
Quest for Glory 4

Found at:

http://www.the-underdogs.org/

Try visiting the site between 12:00 and 0:00 GMT because their bandwidth is limited!!!

They've got a lot of great DOS games, unfortunatly, couldn't find Quest for Glory 5 anywhere...

Had some problems with Lotus 3 though. DIVIDE OVERFLOW error. Didn't try it on my 386 yet.

I tested Life & Death 1 on my 8088 without any problems.
