Another 100 DOS games in 10 minutes

- My previous DOS compilation is about to reach 300K views, which is a lot for my channel! Here's another compilation to celebrate this occasion. Thanks a lot to everyone for viewing and commenting :)
The previous video was missing a bunch of important and interesting games as pointed out in the comments. I included many of the games mentioned in addition to games I personally think should've been in the first video if it was possible. My apologies if your favorite game is still missing from the list, there are a lot more than 200 games released for DOS!
Focus is again on the technically supreme twilight years of DOS gaming before development for DOS was abandoned. 90's is the most relevant decade for shaping the future of computer games. Most PC games released before were just not that good even at the time, when compared to releases for other systems such as C64 and NES. But there are some 80's RPGs worth mentioning in addition to early Sierra adventures and I'm not saying every game featured in this video is still worth playing either.
The music:
Doom 2 - The Waste Tunnels (SGM-V2.01 soundfont recording - end trimmed)
Warcraft: Orcs & Humans - Human 1 (SGM-V2.01 soundfont recording - end trimmed)
Dune - Morning (Adlib gold recording). Thanks to original grabber!
Few mistakes with game titles: 02:20 Imperium Galactica release year is 1997 not 1994 (thanks to Alianger for pointing it out). 02:26 the game is Alien Legacy and not Alien Logic, both released in 1994. Missing release year for Quest for Glory 3 is 1992.

That feeling when you're watching the video and a random game pops up a memory, hidden extremely deep in your mind, and all the emotions explode in a nostalgic nuke inside your braincells.
You mean: the moment I remember playing some of these games and realizing I'm old as fuck now...
Such a beautiful experience! I'm literally going through these videos and noting down a giant list of all these games I completely forgot about - and will probably load up a small handful to experience again
Can't wait for next months PC gamer magazine demo disk...
Exact key what I thought of with some of these. I loved the 3d intro screen on the later discs.
Ha. Brings back some memories.
Oh the nostalgia!!!
Cashier: “Nine dollars for a magazine?! What the hell kinda magazine is this?”
Why wait, just go to a BBS and download them, duh!
Honestly can't believe how many of these I played. Jesus I'm old.
And with each title, you could still remember the feeling, the endings, the stories, may not be accurate, but close.
Right there with you. Good times.
same here lol
I have thought exactly the same thing before reading you.
but do you have them on 5.25 floppy disk?

Yeah, I was a PC gamer in 90s. Nostalgia overkill.
Another great selection. It's crazy to think that there are still many great DOS games out there that weren't included in the 2 compilations.
And that Dune music... Thanks for another nostalgia trip!
That Dune music is the best
Just wanted to appreciate it too, take my like then!
That track is called Chani's Eyes (not Morning as the description of this video stands)
Weet je het zeker?
It's called "Chani's Eyes" on the official CD, but originally the song was indeed called "Morning".
where the heck is the dune music i cant find it tried to find it five times
Again, another great compilation. If you're going to do another one, I'd nominate Theme Hospital, Realms of Arcania/Das schwarze Auge, Xargon, Captain Comic, Castle of the Winds (ok, technically that's a Windows game but it runs on Win 3.11 in Dosbox :D), Baron Baldric's Mystic Towers, Bio Menace, Corridor 7/Alien Invasion, Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure, CyberMage, Dark Ages, Nitemare 3D, Hugo's House of Horrors, EcoSaurus, Codename: IceMan, Jetpack and Prehistorik to appear in said video. Thanks for sharing your memories!
3:50 😲 I ultimately gasped when I saw RETURN TO ZORK pop up!! I remember playing this back in primary school but could never remember the name of it... only took me 25 years to find it again... ohh I could cry 😂 So glad I watched this compilation, thank you so much!!! 🤩
For 16 years I have been searching for a game that I loved playing when I was 10 years old. Then finally at 05:33 LEGEND OF KYRANDIA! Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Same here. @4:27 Shadowcaster. I wonder how I'm gonna find this game, now...
8:20 wow those animations are actually neat and smooth
A
Incredible sprite work for sure
Cannon fodder, Larry, Earthsiege, Quarantine, Full Throttle, Pirates and so on! This complication is stuffed with gaming gems, thanks for the trip down memory lane!
7:02 OMG I finally found it! Realm Of Chaos! I've been looking for this game for the past 10 years!!! I had no idea what the title of the game was. Nice!
Abbbb
jjj
Man I've been searching for the name of the game "Quarantine" for over 15 years, all I could remember was the taxi part...THX
Lol, you were looking for Quarantine, in 2020 quarantine found everybody.
Jazz Jackrabbit was such an awesome platformer. I remember finding the demo disk from around 1994 with the contact info to buy the full game, which had an e-mail address which of course was quite rare in those days. I decided to send an e-mail to it in around 2010 just to see if anyone still accessed it, and sure enough the team of the game still owned it then and said they were still selling the full game on CD-ROM rather than disks by then, so I got it. xD
When there are literally 100 games to talk about but the furry came to mention Jack Jazzrabbit.
roflmao
nice fairy-tail bro
@@MrNucleosome chill out kid.
Loved this game
Ski or Die. I played so much! Good Old times. Tears falling here now!!!!
Congrats, this is a great video! Seeing all these games together make me feel a bit old but definitely grateful to be born in time to play almost all of them. I' ve completely forgotten some of the games shown here so thanks for reminding me them!
Damn, I thought I've known most of the games of the 90's, but now I've realised I've barely scratched the surface.
With these games you could play days on without getting bored or tired... you just could not stop.. and you knew every characters special abilities or secrets in the game... you made yourself the master... now you go buy a game and pay 5 times more for this and that expansion pack and then need to still download additional files etc and then only play like 1 hour before getting bored...
I feel the same way about most games released these days and usually enjoy cheaper indie games more than the expensive big budget releases.
The AAA title games were just as expensive back then than they are now. I have some pc gamer mags where it shows prices ranging from 59.99 to 79.99.
I think that the bigger difference is as you get older it becomes harder to get impressed in general, unless it is something you haven't experienced before. So after playing
100s of games it is very difficult to have those same amazing feeling we did as kids or teenagers when we first experienced some of these... it sucks :/
So many nice memories in both compilations, Thanks !
The musical selection is of particular note. Some great tunes from great games on the list.
When I bought Grand Prix II I had to upgrade my ram to 4MB in order to watch the starting title video with sound. Great game
So many memories suddenly came up... Space Quest V, Full Throttle those were the days. Great vid!
Great job, now I'm missing many of these oldie games.
As a computer games player from the early days of the ZX81, I am most nostalgic about those DOS game days. My first PC was a Commodore 386SX20 based machine which shipped with an Adlib card as standard. I played EPIC and Wing Commander to the sound of Midi music only, and other great games with the PC speaker until I got a Soundblaster, which was nothing short of awesome. Digital SFX and speech! None of the modern super pretty looking games with surround sound and fancy bells and whistles will ever come close to those days for me. Of course it had it's downside too, I remember paying over £100 for 4MB of RAM back in the day of RAM chip shortages. Stealing RAM modules became big business for criminals, who targeted offices primarily (for obvious reasons). That's why PCs began sporting locks on the cases. I still have a DOS machine, and I bet everyone else that was into computers back then, also has at least one.
Your video is the first time I've seen some of these games run smoothly. I still have my disc for EF2000, but never ran as smooth as it was here. The quality almost took away from the nostalgia...almost
3:13 glad to "Slipstream 5000" quality game was originally being designed to be one of the first major cross platform Arial Arcade Racer games. Unfortunately it was too demanding for it's time and had to be re-released with a joystick in '98 when more computers could handle it. The Sega Genesis couldn't handle it on realease, and Sony deal fell through. It would have been amazing when the analog sticks were added.
Great video
1:19 Skyroads was such a fun and challenging game
Thanks to this video I discovered the names of 2 games I used to love playing. Skyroads and Realms of Chaos. Thank you :)
awesome collection eino. great music choices as well
the good old days where graphics didnt give a f*ck honestly
The graphics of these games were considered to be superb in the old days. Not sure what you mean here.
Wonderful memories - and some new insights. Thanks for the video!
Amazing list! This and the previous video helped me remember games I thought I would never find again! Stuff like Albion, Zyclunt and Realms of Chaos I remembered so vaguely I'm amazed I even recognised them, the videos were a great help!
On that note, there is one game I am looking for for ages with no luck. I also don't remember much of it, unfortunately - the things I remember most vividly is the game being a FPS, being quite colourful and it had you fight skulls in the first level. This is more vague, but I think one of the early weapons was either a shotgun or a rifle, or something of that sort - I also think the melee weapon was a shovel, but I am not sure about this one at all, could be completely wrong. Worst part is that I played it on one of these demo discs, so I have no idea how popular or legit the game even was. Does it ring any bells to anyone?
Transport Tycoon - One of the best games ever made and one of my candites for a deserted Island (OTTD)
Keep on doing that awesome thing, hope someday we all find that games that we played, but have no idea how to find them.
Grand Prix 2 was mind-blowing at the time! I never liked motor sports, but boy did I play the hell out of that game! Also, thumbs up for Leisure Suit Larry, Cyberia, Elder Scrolls 2 and Phantasmagoria! What a stroll down memory lane!
Amazing nostalgia. Please keep them coming! Include warlords 2 :).
dat shot at 7:44
HI1
@@einokeino303 aaaa
Love the DOOM music for the opening.
Never could afford a DOS machine as a kid, didn't get a computer until Windows 98 came out. Never had much opportunity to play any at a friends place either. But recently I have played a few DOS games, Vette! and Terminator are two of my favourites.
yeah, if you're parents didn't have one you were pretty much screwed as a kid. I played first on my aunt's Zenith 286 and then a 386 we bought in 89
Doom 2 - The Waste Tunnels (SGM-V2.01 soundfont recording - end trimmed) i need this mix
Did you perhaps find it??
i'm totally lost on what version of dune's audio music you used (around 5:32) , is not the regular music adlib of the game.. (believe, i consider it one of the best, if not the best of DOS adlib music)... for a moment I thought was a roland 32 version, but when i searched for it, sounds totally different, this one sounds almost like the adlib, but adds a lot or reverb to some instruments...
Everything is explained in the description. It's Adlib gold recording (not my grab).
Another great nostalgia list. You still forgot some great ones on both lists: Desert/Jungle Strike, LHX, F19 Stealth Fighter, F15 Eagle, Red Baron, Goblins, Supaplex, Panzer/Allied/Jungle/Fantasy General, Gender Wars, Gene Wars, Populus ... of the top of my head.
Thanks :) I've played D/J strike, Goblins and Populous on Amiga myself. Never played many sims so don't know that much about what should've been included, probably Falcon 3.0 as well. There are so many... I could do another 100 games list from the top of my head ;) Gender Wars and Gene Wars I considered about including. Wanted to have some Taiwanese / Korean games, because the last one didn't have any and there are lots of those also, some better than others.
I can't say I knew any Asian games. Oh btw I remembered few more: Blackout, Sensible World of Soccer, Dizzy games, Paper Boy, And yeah a lot of DOS games were shared with Amiga.
I love these lists, amazing nostalgia trip.
Just few games that I can remember and weren't on lists: secret agent, golden axe, street fighter 2, north and south, ski or die, bomber man, red baron, lunar lander, battle chess, prehistorik 1&2, caveman ugh-lympics, sim farm.
Great list indeed! I also miss these two: 7th Guest and Rise of the Robots.
Indeed great list, brought me lots of good memories, yet i can recall a few more games that i played as a child and cant remember their names, such as carmen sandiego (1 and 2), a really good one about 2 cavemans in 2D, simillar to snow bros, for example (i really wish some1 knew the name of this, actually), one about dodgeball with chinese characters from a fighting game that was also great lol, and one about a sport very much handball alike but with metal suits and powers on an aerial perspective. Anyways, thank you very much for all the memories i got out of this, lot of nostalgia and recalling great moments!
Thanks, great video :) Thanks for listing the last song.. love me some Adlib :)
Veil of Darkness was the precursor for all things vampire in video games. Tex Murphy rocks, and I forgot about Police Force!
Omg, finally I have the name for that freaky game: Phantasmagoria ... never thought I would find it tho! Thx!
I was going to curse on you for not having Dune2 here (that i noticed) then went to your channel and saw two playlists dedicated to that masterpiece...nice!!!
1:10 Daggerfall! I knew you put this one in!
Halloween Harry was fun and had really catchy music. I still think of it from to time.
And looking at the variety here the 90s were a golden age of gaming. So many developers trying new things since home computers were such an open market. Sure there was no internet to help you find the gems in the junk but it was like a hunt. You got games that had cool names and interesting art and hoped they delivered.
3:53 when you go over to yo girl house and her dad answer the door
Excellent video, there are many games there that I now want to track down and play. Maybe you could do 100 Amiga games in 10 minutes as well?
Great format + Great music = Great on point video!
Me after watching these videos:
"Hello Dosbox my old friend...I've come to play with you again"
fades to black while showing fade to black, nice touch
Man i remember "Fade To Black" what an amazing game, i thoutht at the time.
I bought many of them from GOG. They pack the games with DosBox, I don't need to write commands anymore.
Ultima Underworld blew my mind back in the day. It was such a leap from the Ultima series.
Who remember bioforge?
You can buy it on GoG.com
Ikke niet
I totally remember it :) Somehow never remember making it out of that prison facility though, that game was tough as a kid
Nicholas Haniotis Jup i never came out the second room😵, there was no Google back then.
Thank you! Lots of great memories.
Cosmos Cosmic Adventure, Betrayal at Krondor, Monster Bash, Boppin, Bio Menace, One Must Fall, Budokan, Maniac Mansion, Blood Bowl, Gobliiins, Ken's Labyrinth, Star Goose, Amok, The 11th Hour, The 7th Guest, Afterlife, Baldies, Zork, Boulder Dash... just to throw a few out off the top of my head.
There's just so many.
Anyone remember a game called Inner Space?? You flew around as a space ship, in a ateroidz kind of perspective. And you could upgrade your ship with better shields, guns etc.. You would fight other ships, and the game used the icons from real files on your computer as something... like portals to levels or you had to collect them or something. Super fun game.
Jill of the Jungle. Cannon Fodder. I didn't expect to ever see those games on any list. Played Cannon Fodder a hella lot as a kid. Played a lot of these games.
There's an error in the video: "Alien Logic" should've been "Alien Legacy" at 2m30s.
Imagine Earthworm Jim in the FOX engine...
So many gems, absolutely loved the music, spot on! It really represents the games from that time... our time..
Phantasmagoria: it was cutscene, not from gameplay Hardline: just wow...even now it looks like interactive movie
Born in 1990. This video brought so many lost memories
Chca
you miss:
fall out
menzoberranza
Gods
Elvira
, mistress of the darkness
Loom
knight of xentar
When games were about gameplay miss this period of gaming
Played almost all of these and the previous but was very surprised by what you showed for "Alien Logic" here. I didn't realize there were two "Alien Logic" games, as I remember only Alien Logic: Skyrealms of Journe. Should make another list with that on it.
I made a mistake with titles there, check out the description for further details.
@2:35 that was the first PC game I ever played. I didn't play it on DOS though, we had it on the C64 and it was lit.
Ahhh
3:53 "nope"
Does anyone know the name of the DOS game where the player has to go through a green colored fortress or castle and search for items and the game came on 3.5" floppy discs? What about a 1995 DOS game where you are trying to become a rock n roll electric guitar player?
Tohrin's passage
Just found these 2 vids and it gives really nice nostalgy here. :-) However I missed one great game of the 90s on DOS: Panzer General.
Thanks. I should've probably included Panzer General instead of Steel Panthers, PG is definitely more important :P
@@einokeino303 Nope, Steel Panther is great! It could have been 101st but I gues there might be a few more. It's a great list just mentioned. :P it depends on taste anyway.
The Doom Soundtrack brings back memories :-) Love it such a great Beat
Another: Myth2, Xenon2, Titus the fox, Prehistorik, Retaliator
ECSTATICA..!!! Thank you. Been trying to find out the name this game for a long time. Tried googling all that I knew about it with no success. THANK YOU!!
4:40 Lighthouse! Fuck that one was badass!
Zzzz
1:34 I earned the nickname "wall hugger" from playing this part with my siblings watching.
A
can you do another 100 please? im trying to find a game i use to play back in the day and i cant remember the name of it
Can you describe some of the game?
is it the same game im looking for? RTS where the soldiers say I'll do that or I'll do this in a slow voice and was set in the past?
Hit me right in the feels!
Hey I’m looking for info on a specific game now I can’t remember the name all I can remember is in one level you have to reflect light with mirrors in order to melt ice for something also in another level your in a hot air balloon and you have to use the air stresses to reach the other side of the board and maybe another board with a catapult?? I know this isn’t much info but it’s been killing me and my sister lol any ideas??? Also I believe the main character wore a red cape
awesome list, but I believe I didn't notice here and in the previous clip - Creature Shock, Companions of Xanth, Litil Divil, Innocent until caught, Guilty, Bureau 13, Depth Dwellers or any part of Goblins
Holy fuck, I didn't know Duke Nukem was originally a platformer.
Damn, i am old.
How old?
Old, but gold.
Earthseige, unfff. That title and the second one rocked. Sierra had some killer titles.
WoW ! Really a golden age of great games. Except for those foreign fighting games I tried to play all of them. But When my roommate finished all of them before I did, I stopped playing them. Now I try to recollect the boxed versions. Loved a lot of them and my god where did I find the time to play them ?
DOS may not have the sheer quantity of legendary titles like its at-the-time competitors, but there were experiences here that no console had.
It's a matter of perspective. When internet became an actual thing I was surprised how popular consoles were in US compared to Europe at the time. I have never seen N64, Saturn or Dreamcast irl and even 16bit consoles were relatively rare. Back then I assumed most people were PC gamers until PS1 was released. Genre division between consoles and PCs was very clear. PC games were focused toward FPS, adventure, strategy, western RPGs and simulators.
redneck rampage and chicken gun omg :D ty for sharing . Also thanks i remember 1 game i always think about thank you alot
"...I don't have anything..."
Ben Throttle, 96.
7:20 - Darksun: Shattered Lands. Can’t believe this game made the cut. What a ridiculous game, basically unplayable and impossible to win. Eventually you just end up wandering the giant empty map because you failed to trigger the event that leads to the next stage. After logging maybe 1000 hours i finally won.
Aa
EF2000 was pretty fun...Warning: Missile launch! hahah...good times.
Well that was unexpected. I always wondered why August was so damn loyal to Zeref. The other Spriggan were just no match for Zeref and his curse but August could have easily opposed him and just taken his own path even if he had to flee. Now it makes sense.
I'm trying to find the game where it's a fantasy setting and it's a bunch of islands floating in the sky surrounded by thunderclouds that you connect together with bridges, and you fight against another player/computer by destroying the bridges with towers you construct. Does that happen to ring a bell?
I don't know but these game look rather fun Alien Rampage, Baryon and Jazz Jackrabbit for back in the day. You might also try out Peaches Dream, It was made by 1 person but it is actually rather interesting. You can also try out Return of the Triad and Hocus Pocus Doom for the Zdoom engines.
Thank youuuu i found the name of a game ive been trying to remember, only fragments of memories.
Cyberia
Thanks for putting my favorite game on the top of the video
Holey shit I forgotten about so many of these, it's like I'm seeing visions from a past life.
How about Shellshock, Lotus The Ultimate Challenge, Prehistorik, Putt-Putt, Fatty Bear, Freddy Fish, Pajama Sam, Corridor 7 - Alien Invasion, Terep 2, Supaplex, Disney games (Aladdin, Lion King, Herkules, etc.), Roller Coaster Tycoon, Superfrog, Blockout, Guldkorn Expressen, Gods, Rayman, Heart of Darkness? :P
