Oregon Trail

@fribbledom Jazz Jackrabbit

@fribbledom quake, tomb raider 1, heretic, Simon, monkey island, dot, colonization, trainsport tycoon , ...

@fribbledom the best dos game is typing in dir \w or maybe it's dir /w? and then getting an error because the slash is doing the wrong way

@fribbledom The Dark Heart of Uukrul

@fribbledom So many to choose from. Descent, perhaps, Or maybe Space Quest 3.

@fribbledom Tough one, but Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis might be pretty much up there. If for more replayability, I enjoyed the original ADOM.

@fribbledom
Star Trek 25th Anniversary. Or Megarace.

@fribbledom Either Day of the Tentacle or Tie Fighter.

@fribbledom Star Control III

Screamer Rally

@fribbledom Agreed, Super Mario Brothers was pretty ahead of it's time.

@fribbledom One Must Fall 2097

@fribbledom there were some pretty neat Star Wars Dos games

@fribbledom Master of Magic, Star Control II. Still occasionally replaying both.

@fribbledom There are so many great games in this thread! I was going to say Transport Tycoon but then was reminded of Civilisation and Heretic and Commander Keen and Jazz Rabbits and Worms and Descent and...

@fribbledom does win3.1 solitaire count as a dos game

@fribbledom Ultima VII, or Police Quest 1. I wasted far too many hours of my youth playing both. ๐Ÿ˜†

@fribbledom SimCity transpot tycoon

@fribbledom Sam and Max Hit the Road

@phoe

We'll make an exception, as Win 3.1 is really just a DOS program.

@fribbledom sike! you fell for my trap

so is Unreal Tournament '99 because win98 is also just a DOS program

@fribbledom fast food

@fribbledom, the one that first came to mind is Fantasy Empires.

@fribbledom Civilization

@fribbledom wolfenstein 3D

@fribbledom I'm surprised no one's mentioned this one yet: Descent. It works in FreeDOS, too!

@fribbledom Monkey Island 2. Or maybe Transport Tycoon.

@fribbledom @phoenix Rick Dangerous and Commander Keen

@fribbledom I also enjoyed INSERT~1.

@fribbledom
Siedler 2

@fribbledom looks like people have already named the hits, so I'll mention a little known game called "Crime Fighter". A lot of hours were spent on that one.

@yellowbeard

Oh, I remember this one! The granny with the machine gun was hilarious!

@yellowbeard

Another memory from this game: I remember you could try and crack the bank vault, but if you failed the mini-game, it would trigger an alarm sequence on the PC speaker.

We used to play this as kids until late at night. Going for the vault was extra thrilling, because if you failed, it would also wake up our parents ๐Ÿคฃ

LucasArts "Loom" - beautiful graphics and music, and a good story: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loom_(video_game)

@fribbledom I can't tell if this is a call for opinion, or an arms up that your own opinions aren't appreciated. As such, I hope your opinion is worth sharing.

@fribbledom Master of Orion I

@fribbledom DOOM. Not even a question.

@fribbledom karateka ๐Ÿ‘Œ

@fribbledom Pinball Fantasies. I didn't play many DOS games though and I have nostalgia for this game

@fribbledom From what I have read so far there are so many cool games I have played. I remember also "Ports of Call" and "Vermeer" which I loved to death.

@fribbledom @bremner I feel like that's unfair. Sure, the series has a rough start. But I think that over all it's balanced out by how unexpectedly worse it got.

@fribbledom Civilization

@fribbledom
Settler II

@fribbledom
Besides all that I have boosted, replied, favorited, there are 2 missing: lemmings and the lion king

@fribbledom all of the Sierra adventures, Dungeon Master and Kyrandia

@fribbledom Luckily, people have mentioned most I like best. But it seems nobody has mentioned Space Quest yet.

How about Wing Commander I and II?

How about Quake? It did have better frame rate on Linux, though.

@fribbledom Wing Commander and Privateer

LLL

@fribbledom
I just remembered one game: Paperboy. Has anyone ever played?

@dani

Of course!
