MS-DOS Games Suggestions?

20 December 2010, 16:15

I'm bored, so I'm setting up an MS-DOS virtual machine wherein I'll install a few old DOS games and kill some time.

On the list so far are:
- Digger (a real old favourite of mine)
- Infocom Zork
- Infocom Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
- Infocom Leather Goddess of Phobos
- Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards
- Doom

Any suggestions from the panel?

While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
