Weekend once more, and there surely is updates abound.
First, let's congratulate Oldschool Computer with their 400th update! In this one, they lets us enjoy an Apogee marathon like no other, with Hocus Pocus, Alien Carnage and Wacky Wheels. Go go!
Old Games For You shows you how they transported people back in the very old days, namely in Ugh!. Back then pedal driven helicopters were the tools of the trade. Alongside Ugh! there's another update from the same day, Subwar 2050 - a submarine simulator with some decent elements both to tactics and actual navigating.
Starinky invites everyone out for surfing in California Games II. In a handful of different sporting events you'll have to prove that you got what it takes.
We at The DOS Spirit added news about who we're going to use for delivering our game videos in the future. Wondering what we chose? Head over and see for yourself.
Enjoy your weekend, and as always;
stay retro!
New updates ahoy! I'll leave you with this nice retro pointer from Google Maps on April 1st:
If you're too young to, or simply don't know what C.S.D is, see here
One large update this time, and no wonder, it's been (only) 4 days since our last! Here's a look at some of the updaters:
A Force For Good is back on the update list, this time with a Police Quest-ish clone, namely Blue Force. According to them, it sucks handcuffs.
DJ Oldgames added Treasures of the Savage Frontier, a RPG game from 1992 by SSI and 3 Skulls of the Toltechs, a cartoon adventure game that looks much any of the popular adventure games in the 90s.
Just Games Retro shares some digital ink with reviws of NBA Jam: Tournament Edition for the Jaguar system, and Jeopardy! for the Sega CD. Both should be familiar in some sense, and they both get a passable score.
Ooooh, Old Cans adds some true gaming nostalgia. Wait a minute, Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines and Starcraft? You should look up Abandonia's old warez list, those aren't abandonware as they're still sold webmaster! For now I'm guessing they are demos.
Lastly, World of Abandonware added Swap, a logic color and shape matching game by the looks of it.
Enjoy these and the rest of the updates.
Until next time,
stay retro.
