DOS Games Discussion

I bought Crystal Caves and Secret Agent from apogee1.com and I love them. They were a steal for $10 each, even though they are very old. I'm thinking of buying Commander Keen 1-3 next, then Cosmo. Post games you have.

Alien Carnage
Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold
Blake Stone: Planet Strike
Boppin'
Commander Keen: Invasion of the Vorticons
Commander Keen: Goodbye Galaxy
Crystal Caves
Duke Nukum
Duke Nukem II
Duke Nukem 3D
Hocus Pocus
Major Stryker
Math Rescue
Max Payne
Mystic Towers
Terminal Velocity
Wolfenstein 3-D
Word Rescue

That's not including their freeware games of course.

Wow, that's a lot. Did you get them when they first came out, recent when they made most of them $10, or abandonware ?

I know that we have registered versions (floppy disks) for Duke Nukem, Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure, and Commander Keen (1-3). I think we also have Monster Bash and some others but I'm not sure. They're buried in the 10-12 boxes of floppy disks we've got lying around the house here.

Thanks

No, I don't support Warez. Just buy them and don't bitch about the price, if $30 is "way too high" for two games you think are fun then you need to get a job.

Dopefish, did you buy Boppin or Alien Carnage from 3d realms? If so, did they come in a winzip self extractor? If so, I'd be willing to buy them since you can't get them anymore.

I got Boppin' from them but I ordered the floppies so there's no Winzip. I got Alien Carnage from EB and it's also on floppies.

Lol, not one game you talk about has something to do with Apogee.

I just bought Mystic Towers. It is awesome!

Have you tried the prequel of Mystic Towers, called Baron Baldric?

All the Keen games, alien carnage, secret agent, mystic towers, hocus pocus, cosmo's cosmic adventures, crystal caves. Everything after the keens are first episodes or legal shareware. Since I have a debit card now I believe it's time to get the full versions and the rest of the episodes for each of the above.

i have:
Secret Agent
Commander Keen dreams
Gateworld
wacky wheels
monster bash
Hocus Pocus
Duke nukem 1
duke nukem 2
duke3D
And from the other games i have i'm not sure if they're Apogee

It's funny that you mentioned GateWorld. It was going to be published by Apogee, but they thought the quality was low, so they let HomeBrew Software publish it.

This is what I have, most are apogee but to save time I have also entered other games which I have purchased over the years...all up I have around about 5,000 games...most are freeware, some are shareware and others are pure abandonware!!


Crystal Caves (1 - 3)
Commander Keen ( 1 - 6)
