The DOSBoxing Adventure Continues
Last night I went to My Abandonware and got a couple of DOS games that I wanted to try out:
The first one is called Life In The Fast Lane (a.k.a. LifeGenesis). You just use the spacebar to create life cells and press Enter to generate the cell field. What I like about this is you can do other things like if you press the R key it makes a random field of life cells, and you can save and load your creations on to your computer. Here’s my creation in this game:
And this DOS game is called Poker Galore:
The gameplay is not bad at all, and what I like about it is the different video poker games like Jacks or Better, Joker’s Wild, Second Chance, etc. 🙂
After Dark Open Thread
Last night I went to a website called Play DOS Games Online, where you look around and find DOS games and old Windows games that you want to play, and I found an After Dark 3.2 program that has various screensavers. Here are some of them that are my favorites:
They’re really good screensavers and so do the others. 🙂 Unfortunately, it won’t work under Windows 7 but it will if it’s running under DOSBox or a virtual machine. I was thinking about doing that one of these days.
Another DOS game I’m interested in
I decided to play some Super Tetris. It’s an old DOS game where you have to clear all the lines from the picture to advance to the next level. Here’s what the game looks like:
This game is really awesome to play. 😀 I like how I use bombs to destroy blocks and grab power-ups every time I clear the lines, and I also like the artwork in this game like circus animals, clowns, etc.
Poker Solitaire Open Thread
I was doing a little bit of Poker Solitaire, and I got a high score of 331.
I gotta say, two Royal Flushes are better than one. XD
Mah Cat
Last night I decided to play a little bit of Mah Jongg with the Stewie and Morty tile set:
Yep, that is a really cute tile set. 🙂
Some more old skool action
I’ve been playing a game called Poker Solitaire:
It’s a card game where you can place cards one by one on the grid to earn points from different hands. I’d say this is a really good game because I like how it has an option that let’s me choose scoring systems:
And another that let’s me choose different game variations like the one variation where you can place all the cards at once and swap them around, and the other where you can place cards one by one only on adjacent squares:
Yeah, things are going alright so far. 🙂
Playing some good ol’ Mah Jongg
Last night I was playing some Mah Jongg with the Letters and Numbers tile set:
I created it because I like the colors on the letters and the numbers. 🙂
Time for some old skool gaming
I found some new DOS games that I’m interested in:
Word Seeking is a word search game where you can create your own words and look for them:
And WordTris is like a mix between Scrabble and Tetris.
What I like about WordTris is the pictures from different levels, like the beautiful garden and two people kissing each other. I find them really good because I like the artwork. And what I like about Word Seeking is the option that let’s me make words on my own.
Some Card Game Shenanigans
I was playing Hoyle Official Book of Games Volume 1 last night. Here’s what it looks like:
It’s got six card games which are Old Maid, Gin Rummy, Hearts, Cribbage, Crazy Eights and Klondike Solitaire. So yeah, I had a lot of fun playing card games in the DOSBox universe. 🙂
Mah Jongg Madness
I decided to play some Mah Jongg today with the Namco tile set that I made. Here’s a picture of it:
I made them because they’re my favorite retro arcade games. 🙂
