Great game! I had beat it as a kid in a IBM 8088 if I remember correctly, with black&white monitor! Thank you for the video! 2024 and it's still running 🙂
I remember I had some good time trying to beat this game... and I couldn't even past the first 4 levels. I was 7 or 9, I think. Glad I finally seen how this game ends LOL
My god... I woke up today and reminded me of a game I used to play 10+ years ago with an epic music. It's name was "(something) the fox"...I only remembered the name began of T...So I searched for Tuty the fox, or Tati or shit like that...And I finally found it!! and the music is 12:25!!! Oh my...this 13:48 gives me goosebumps....
13:48 is a replayed theme from the Arcanoid game )) author of T. the fox music has cut much of the music of past era ))) typical Italo-style pop music )))))
My god! this is the first game I got as a child, and my brother PC was too old to run it ^_^ every time my family would go to some relative with a PC I would take it with me in hope that they would have a better PC.... anyhow I got as far as level 4... maybe 5 once... and I just did a run before I looked to see if there is a youtube video of someone that was able to run the whole game. and it's even worse now... level 3 ^_^ anyhow thank so much - it was great fun to see you play and win, you are amazing! (and so many hidden stuff I never knew about) you made my day, Matan ^_^
There are more shortcuts that can seriously speed up a walkthrough. If you hold a right+up when level 8 is just starting (8:42 at this video), you will get into the top of wall. Walking right direction almost above the top edge of the screen you will fall later into small room with water and elevator (above the location at 9:19). The same trick is at level 13 (17:48), if you do this, you will skip the entire pipe and quickly walk directly to the end collecting diamonds as a bonus. In addition you might stack all the crates you see at the beginning of level 11 at 14:02 just below the code sorcerer and immediately climb to the clouds, this should also save a lot of time.
Took me long time to even search this game. The first computer game I ever played when I was like 6 or 7. My dad bought pc for work and for some reason this game came with it. We are in S Korea and I don't think game was popular in Korea. It was scary to me with dark themes and so hard to pass any level.
I can remember how i got stuck then beat by trying and trying many sections of the game being just 9 or 10 until i got to the end (probably in the span of many months). No wonder this game and many others made us, dark souls players :)
hehe, the fact that there is not invincible frames when you get hit, is indeed frustrating, specially with the flies/bees (but the throwing bottle bums right on the end of the first stage combined with the dogs is madness to start) :) but the playability of the PC version is better than the amiga version (or compared to the original 'moktar') IMO
Cool! Thanks to you running this game :) Even after 15 years, I still remember each pixel and I knew 90% of the tricks you use. I think I spent too many time on it... :) Type "that guy with the glasses benzaie moktar" in google, you'll find a video about this game.
I see, athough this costs a life, I think it works great for the speedrun! And the most prominent use of this trick is at 15:40, that's why I was so startled that you didn't pick the carpet: I thought there was no way to pass by those yoga instructors unless you've got a multi-use weapon!!!
Hace como 18 años que me trabé en el nivel 9, y hice varios intentos años después; es increíble para mi, ver la facilidad con la que lo pasa mysoft64bits. Claro que pase la final con el codigo del nivel 8, que salta a ultimo nivel. Juegazo!
heheh yeah, while a kid, since i played this everytime i seem the titus logo i was... whoa another titus game!.... but the truth is that the game is "Moktar Adventures: lagaf - la zoubida" that is a french comedian?? and most of the graphics on the game are present on his movie clip "la zoubida" ruclips.net/video/54YE868-LLw/видео.html, which is... WEIRD!, so when titus went to release the game outside france they needed a new character since lagaf isnt know outside france... and then... they used their maskot!!! and the rest is history!
Hm, nice work, but I believe it should be possible to hold down the button to jump over to the right at the beginning of the Pipe Dream stage to basically bypass everything there. ToMarrakechAndBack's video of that level shows him doing that trick, beating the level in 35 seconds
yes! first time i played it... it was from the floppy and my HDD was 20mb on my 286 (12 mhz)... but it was not EGA/VGA (16 colors) it was CGA 4 colors (purple/cyan/white/black) :P
I used to play the French version of this game on Atari ST, that wasn't with Titus the fox but with a French TV animator, the music were a bit different too.
Very smart and skilled run! I hope it's ok if I take a few tricks from this video to my upcoming TAS to this game. I can credit you for the most copied parts.
heheh lagaf is not very much known outside france so it was re-released using the company maskot. (but the gameplay was improved compared to the original a tiny bit as well)
also theres this: sourceforge.net/projects/opentitus/ (but it requires the resources from the game anyway, but its 99% compatible with the original game, and does not require dosbox)
yeah while i was kid (8yo?) i couldnt pass level 9... but i found that level 8 secret with code to last stage.... so i ended that way it was not until i played it again when i was 16 -17 then i ended liking the game more than ever...
no, thats correct unless you played the CGA/EGA versions or maybe you did set your monitor/TV saturation to the roof.... the colors are like that because this game is 16 colors only! its has one of the best colors of all 16 color games
There is another nice improvement in the Amiga version you didn't mention.. In the Amiga version there is proper hardware scrolling of the screen.. not like the DOS version where it just tilts the frame forwards or upwards a bit, which is awkward, although one does get used to it.
The Amiga version was better, more colourful and most of all, better scrolling. The PC version was based on the Atari ST port, a system that was incapable of doing scrolling unless you did some clever programming.
Great game! I had beat it as a kid in a IBM 8088 if I remember correctly, with black&white monitor! Thank you for the video! 2024 and it's still running 🙂
I wish I could like this a thousand times. This game was so difficult and you made it look so simple. Truly awesome!
lol it didn't look simple, but it was indeed incredibly difficult!
This game was one of my fav when I was a child.
Except for the scrolling system, this game is a masterpiece, beautiful colors and graphics, superb music
This is incredible The Fox is one of the hardest game I played..and also this is my best game when I was a kid :)
I remember I had some good time trying to beat this game... and I couldn't even past the first 4 levels. I was 7 or 9, I think. Glad I finally seen how this game ends LOL
Eff this game. So many wasted hours on terrible game design. But yeah, glad I could finally see it played through
Oh wow, this game made me grit my teeth so much as kid. I spent so much time trying to finish this dang thing.
My god... I woke up today and reminded me of a game I used to play 10+ years ago with an epic music. It's name was "(something) the fox"...I only remembered the name began of T...So I searched for Tuty the fox, or Tati or shit like that...And I finally found it!! and the music is 12:25!!! Oh my...this 13:48 gives me goosebumps....
2 years late but I found this game just like you said was looking for " T the Fox"
13:48 is a replayed theme from the Arcanoid game )) author of T. the fox music has cut much of the music of past era ))) typical Italo-style pop music )))))
Wow, I don't think I ever got past the Metro level! :-D
My god! this is the first game I got as a child, and my brother PC was too old to run it ^_^
every time my family would go to some relative with a PC I would take it with me in hope that they would have a better PC.... anyhow I got as far as level 4... maybe 5 once... and I just did a run before I looked to see if there is a youtube video of someone that was able to run the whole game. and it's even worse now... level 3 ^_^
anyhow thank so much - it was great fun to see you play and win, you are amazing! (and so many hidden stuff I never knew about)
you made my day,
Matan ^_^
I don't remember which level I reached. But I remember I enjoyed riding a skateboard, which this guy somehow ignored...
I didn't think beating this game was even possible- when I bought this I couldn't get past the catacombs. Great work
Insane skill! This game is pure evil.

+Demid Tuzenko I spent ton of time searching for a shortcuts and hidden areas when i was young. Loved this game.
this game is so so nice.i really love it!!!
2015 and this game is still great! ^_^
Took me long time to even search this game. The first computer game I ever played when I was like 6 or 7. My dad bought pc for work and for some reason this game came with it. We are in S Korea and I don't think game was popular in Korea. It was scary to me with dark themes and so hard to pass any level.
Couldn't finish this game when I was teenager, but finally did when I was like 22 ,I'm 38 now lol. Best game ever!
Really smart game. And really fucking hard too to beat.
I can remember how i got stuck then beat by trying and trying many sections of the game being just 9 or 10 until i got to the end (probably in the span of many months).
No wonder this game and many others made us, dark souls players :)
that game was so cool
Это была очень сложная игра, столько времени прошло... Приятная ностальгия...
*Посмотрел и вернулся в школьные годы
До темноты оставались мы в школе играть на компьютерах*
heh, same as we had such game on my "computer course" when i was 7yo (its from where i know it, and from where i did grab the first copy of it)
the amount of skill is astounding. Mad props, man!
Good game, bad scrolling, just like Prehistorik :-)
Just started playing this game and it is hard and frustrating
hehe, the fact that there is not invincible frames when you get hit, is indeed frustrating, specially with the flies/bees (but the throwing bottle bums right on the end of the first stage combined with the dogs is madness to start) :) but the playability of the PC version is better than the amiga version (or compared to the original 'moktar') IMO
Brings back memories!!!
You know in level 13 you can skip it if you jump in the beggining up + right you just walk directly to the end of the level above the pipe.
Cool! Thanks to you running this game :)
Even after 15 years, I still remember each pixel and I knew 90% of the tricks you use.
I think I spent too many time on it... :)
Type "that guy with the glasses benzaie moktar" in google, you'll find a video about this game.
Such a great game 👍
The first enemies are short Toretos
This game was amazing. I played it a lot when i was a kid
Wow this bring me back to my childhood, at 4 or 5 years old
now im 25
Guess what? now im almost 32 ;(
damn, I wasnt able to make to lvl 3 when i was a little kid :O
I Liked this Game I played in the computer when I was young. Thank you. :-)
I see, athough this costs a life, I think it works great for the speedrun! And the most prominent use of this trick is at 15:40, that's why I was so startled that you didn't pick the carpet: I thought there was no way to pass by those yoga instructors unless you've got a multi-use weapon!!!

+Jose Luis Camacho Sandoval Jaja, yo nunca pase el segundo nivel. Pero ahora nada me para.
i didn't even know titus' mascot had a game until very recently
heheh yeah, while a kid, since i played this everytime i seem the titus logo i was... whoa another titus game!.... but the truth is that the game is "Moktar Adventures: lagaf - la zoubida" that is a french comedian?? and most of the graphics on the game are present on his movie clip "la zoubida" ruclips.net/video/54YE868-LLw/видео.html, which is... WEIRD!, so when titus went to release the game outside france they needed a new character since lagaf isnt know outside france... and then... they used their maskot!!! and the rest is history!
nice :) i played this game as a kid but it was too hard for me
Hm, nice work, but I believe it should be possible to hold down the button to jump over to the right at the beginning of the Pipe Dream stage to basically bypass everything there. ToMarrakechAndBack's video of that level shows him doing that trick, beating the level in 35 seconds
Please help me!! I used to play this when I was a kid, but now I can't find the key to grab objects :/
this game ran on a 80-88 PC, 16 colors screen, 32 MB hard memory that looked like more to a nuclear central rather than a computer. Cool game.
yes! first time i played it... it was from the floppy and my HDD was 20mb on my 286 (12 mhz)... but it was not EGA/VGA (16 colors) it was CGA 4 colors (purple/cyan/white/black) :P
I used to play the French version of this game on Atari ST, that wasn't with Titus the fox but with a French TV animator, the music were a bit different too.
And one more thing: Did you guess the passwords until able to play the maps separately? There's 65536 different password possibilities.
Do you know that you can skip the first part of level 8. If you jump just when the level begins. It works for the french version of the game.
i was stuck at level 8/9 for an eternity and then managed to get through :D
i remember back in the day when i beat this for the first time... I was so happy
Что за отвратитльный саундтрек - его кот програмиста топчась задними лапами по клавиатуре писал ?
I've been humming the intro music since morning 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I remember I just wanted to ride the skateboard
A fantastic trip! How did you skip all those flies at 5:30?
This game is ... hard! I completed it a couple of times, long time ago. It was a lot of fun. You can still run it today with something like dosbox.
I never came even close to completing it, but for sure spent too much time on it... But I was pretty young too...
Oh my god :) I playde this game at 1999 :))) It was so fucking cool ))))
One of the hardest games ever graphic is great and great playing.
Very smart and skilled run! I hope it's ok if I take a few tricks from this video to my upcoming TAS to this game. I can credit you for the most copied parts.
Played it 24 years ago..
What a psychodelique adventure
Can you please tell me what's the code for level 4 ? Levels 1, 2 and 3 bore the life out of me.
amazing speed
wow you played so fast!
but it's lagaf: the adventures of moktar that.
what happened?
heheh lagaf is not very much known outside france so it was re-released using the company maskot. (but the gameplay was improved compared to the original a tiny bit as well)
where can i download?
also theres this: sourceforge.net/projects/opentitus/ (but it requires the resources from the game anyway, but its 99% compatible with the original game, and does not require dosbox)
Looks like a great old game, but something bothers me. These guys... they... they made Superman 64!!!
Had this game under the name "aventures de Moktar" I could tell why it's named like this but it's too long
Sure, I'm French myself so, yeah. Lagaf is part of my youth ( And he's still on TV. )
When I was kid, I passed only half of this game. Now I know how it ends :).
yeah while i was kid (8yo?) i couldnt pass level 9... but i found that level 8 secret with code to last stage.... so i ended that way it was not until i played it again when i was 16 -17 then i ended liking the game more than ever...
wow!
I played this game as child with friends and i know 3 secret and quicks ways then you... But you are amazing! :) Im so slow :(
At the beginning you forgot skateboard and flying carpet
In year 2005 I'm stuck at level 5 ... But now. Heh 😏
I don't remember the graphics in the game being this brown and dull. Is that an emulation problem?
no, thats correct unless you played the CGA/EGA versions or maybe you did set your monitor/TV saturation to the roof.... the colors are like that because this game is 16 colors only! its has one of the best colors of all 16 color games
What machine is this on?
I had the Amiga version and it was much better than this.
I remember back in those days.
Amiga was the king of gaming computers. It was around this time the PCs were beginning to change things.
There is another nice improvement in the Amiga version you didn't mention.. In the Amiga version there is proper hardware scrolling of the screen.. not like the DOS version where it just tilts the frame forwards or upwards a bit, which is awkward, although one does get used to it.
Apparently, it's a nightmare to program proper camera scrolling for DOS, which was a mayor highlight of the commander keen series back then.
AVGN should review this game.
indeed, i even did a request to him actually who knows maybe someday... but meanwhile ruclips.net/channel/UCKKMLGqkiwxekjs7HB-pqQwsearch?query=titus
my friend you missed a secret passageway at level 8. :p
marcou minha infancia esse jogo
The Amiga version was better, more colourful and most of all, better scrolling.
The PC version was based on the Atari ST port, a system that was incapable of doing scrolling unless you did some clever programming.
playability of the PC version is better at least hehe
из аркад всмысле
прошел всю но долго проходил года 2 или даже три. одна из самых сложных игр для 286
@12:00 Divine intervention
indeed, luckly the new strategy for that skips the whole "mummy moving" part, instead of trying to get many hits as possible hehe
11:32
This game sure is brown
Level 8. Try pressing up and right from the load screen. Thank me later ;)
Completely agree, I don't do those tricks when playing for fun, but since this was a speedrun I thought I'd mention it.
神人啊
That music is... annoying.
I definitly prefer the original game, even if it's slightly racist.
dislike 2
my god, this game was awful
Игра скучная однообразная, никогда не нравилась
bleh, what an ugly graphic and horrible music xd
