The Green Rabbit Strikes Back

I played some Jazz Jackrabbit yesterday and I have completed the first episode after defeating an evil turtle known as Devan Shell, who’s riding on his bouncy spaceship:

So that’s one down and five more to go. I will dig into this some more any other day, and hopefully Jazz can stop Devan and his twin mega battleships from destroying his home planet Carrotus, and rescue his girlfriend Eva Earlong. 🙂

Playing around some Time Slaughter

I found another DOS game where Street Fighter meets Mortal Kombat. This is Time Slaughter, a fighting game made by Bloodlust Software. I decided to tear into this old-school fighting game.

You will play as one of the ten characters and the object of the game is to defeat every opponent to get all the way up to the hideous robotic monstrosity known as Portal. Here’s what the game looks like:

The gameplay looks nice and so do the characters. Your character’s winquote will appear after you win two rounds against your opponent just like in the Street Fighter games:

Here’s one of the winquotes that really made me laugh my ass off:

Another thing in this game, if you successfully use a slaughter move (or fatality) on all ten original characters with no continues, then you will fight against the bonus character named Staine. Now that’s amazing! 🙂 What I like about this game are not only the characters, but also their battle stages like the deserted island, the New York alley, the prehistoric caveman times, etc.

Unfortunately, the creators of the game never made a sequel. 🙁 So anyway, that’s what the game is all about. It’s bloody fun! 😀

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. 🙂

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.

Some more old skool action

I’ve been playing a game called Poker Solitaire:

pokersolitairedospic

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. 🙂

Time for some old skool gaming

I found some new DOS games that I’m interested in:

wordseeking

wordtris

Word Seeking is a word search game where you can create your own words and look for them:

wordseeking2

wordseeking3

And WordTris is like a mix between Scrabble and Tetris.

wordtris2

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.
