Torturing Myself With Good Ol’ Flak Attack
I’ve been playing another old Windows game that I remember playing back when I was kid in the Windows XP era, and it’s called Flak Attack:
The objective in this game is to aim and fire at the robot soldiers and stop them from parachuting to the ground while shooting down satellites, jets and helicopters and letting the friendly UN helicopters fly by and drop extra ammo boxes which they can be used as smart bombs to destroy everything in the sky if you shoot them. However, the game is over when 4 robot soldiers gather on one side of my base and then destroy it:
I got up to level 13 with my final score of 444,600 points after killing 853 enemies. I’m very satisfied about it, and what I like about this game is the chain reaction bonus every time I shoot down an enemy ship which will explode and fall into another one after another. But yeah, this old school game is explosively fun. 🙂
Playing A Bit Of Scrabble For Ol’ Windoze
I was checking out the old Windows version of Scrabble running under DOSBox this evening.
I already know what the objective in this game is and everything, and it’s really fun just like all the other versions of Scrabble. 10 stars out of 10!
Casino BlackJack Of All Trades
I decided to check out Casino BlackJack for Windows 3.11 running on DOSBox. I’ve never played that old-school Blackjack game before until now, and here’s what the actual gameplay looks like:
I’d say this is a really fun game, and what I like about it is there’s options involving check boxes for splitting aces, doubling down on any count, splitting any two cards and using bonus payments. You can also change the minimum and maximum bet limits while you’re there. Minimum bet limits are ranged from 1 dollar to 1,000 dollars, and maximum bet limits are ranged from 2,000 dollars to 10,000 dollars. Sweet!
Now I’m off to continue exploring something new (old) in the meantime. Until then, I will see you all next month!
Time For Me To Get JigSawed
I was playing an old-school Windows game that I remember playing back in the Windows XP era when I was a kid. It’s called JigSawed, a jigsaw puzzle game where you need a picture file and the objective is to grab all the pieces and drag them to their home spots and solve the jigsaw puzzle. Here’s what the actual gameplay looks like:
As you can see here, this is a picture of Wall-E and Eve but it’s scrambled into puzzle pieces in shapes such as rectangles, ellipses, etc. After you completed it, a message will pop up and will let you know that you have solved the puzzle in an amount of time taken.
Now here’s what the picture of Wall-E and Eve would like if all the pieces are in their home spots:
I also made a bunch of other picture files that are 16-bit color bitmap files because JigSawed doesn’t support the ones with 256-bit color. Another thing I don’t like about this game is when you pick up a hidden piece buried in other pieces in their home spots and I keep deciding to pick one of the pieces from their home spots instead of the ones that are hidden. Jesus Dog Gone Christ, I always hated that to happen EVERY SINGLE TIME! Either way, I really enjoyed playing this fun puzzle game.
Let’s Talk About Monopoly Casino Vegas Edition
I just remembered something from awhile back in the Windows XP era. I was playing an old-school gambling simulation game called Monopoly Casino Vegas Edition.
I got this game as part of my Monopoly Platinum Collection for Christmas back when I was a kid. In this game, you get to choose which casino game you’d like to play while choosing the minimum and maximum betting increments. Here are some screenshots of games that are my favorites:
There’s also Keno, Bingo, video poker and slot machines in this game. Anyways, I really missed playing this fun game so much. 🙁
Here’s My Giant Blue Wheel Of Death
Guess what kind of vehicular superweapon I made in Scribblenauts Unmasked?
I always thought war wheels are one of my favorite enemy superweapons, so I decided to make one with a dark blue paint job. 😛
I Found Something Shockingly Explosive
I apologize for not posting for the last couple days, but guess what I found while I was gearing up a bit in Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel?
Now THIS will be a perfect grenade mod for me, and I’m highly satisfied about it. 🙂
And The Award Goes To… ME!
Last month I put up this Borderlands 2 screenshot up on Steam, and I got an award for it today while I was going through my e-mail messages:
Hooray! That’s 200 Steam points added to my account which will be available in two weeks. This is one of the best days of my life! 😀
Current Gaming Mood: Quake II For The Nintendo 64
I decided to check out the original Nintendo 64 version of Quake II, and here’s a picture of what the gameplay looks like:
I start off in the Strogg Outpost where I encountered and killed a bunch of light guards and one shotgun guard while discovering secrets in that level on Medium difficulty.
What I do like about this version of Quake II is every time you complete a level it shows you the stats of time, kills and secrets along with the given password:
Anyways, first level is finished and I’m going to the next level which is the Central Complex. But that’ll have to wait because I still need to reconfigure the funky controls the next time I come back to playing this game.
The Queen Is Weirdly Dead
I was playing some more Borderlands 2 evening, and I was killing some spiderants in the Dust until this happened all of the sudden:
But yeah, I saw the way that spiderant queen died and I started laughing really, really hard. 😛
