Obscure DOS Shareware Game: Tubes (1994)

admin — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 08:23:32 +0000

My Obligatory Shareware game for the day =D

Tubes is another matching puzzle type game, in the vein of Columns, Gems and the latter games like Puzzle fighter. In this game you catch different elements in beakers and chain them together to form “molecules”. There are also all sorts of other molecules that can help or greatly hurt you (like the grey coloured Xenon molecule, which does nothing and just gets in the way until you can find a way to blow it up). Overall a pretty fun and interesting game.

Obscure Shareware Game: Brix (1994, Epic Megagames)

admin — Sat, 03 Jul 2010 05:29:09 +0000

Like many games released by Epic Megagames, Brix, a puzzle game of matching blocks, features a rich soundtrack of module based music. This game can be pretty addictive but at the same time, it is very simple. I used to play this game a fair bit when I was a kid and it’s still fun today!

Download it for fun!

Obscure DOS Shareware Game: War Wizard (1993)

admin — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 07:46:15 +0000

I always wanted to try this game. The only copy I could ever find was on a shareware compilation and the game seems bugged all to heck because it refuses to work past putting your character name in. The end of this video is where it crashes!

Wikipedia Says: WarWizard was a fantasy computer role-playing game that was released as shareware in 1993, first for Amiga, then ported to Ms-Dos for IBM-compatible computers. It was developed by MicroGenesis, a small company founded by Brad McQuaid and Steve Clover in 1989. Today, the game is most notable as the commercial start for McQuaid, Clover, and artist Milo Cooper, who would later work together at Sony Online Entertainment on EverQuest and at Sigil Games Online on Vanguard: Saga of Heroes.
The player acts as a “WarWizard”, a powerful magic-using character that fights and completes quests. WarWizard features VGA graphics and sound effects, but touted greater emphasis on gameplay than on anything else.
One notable feature of the game was its combat mode, which featured the ability to target specific parts of an opponent’s body, hampering movement or disabling the opponents altogether, rendering them unable to flee from the battle or to retaliate. The same thing could also happen to the player, WarWizard, himself.
Today, the game is mostly unknown except to a few fans and appears impossible to find anywhere on the net. Even the official site, which became unavailable from September 2007 (possibly connected to Sony Online Entertainment’s takeover of Sigil Games Online on 15 May, 2007), offered only a shareware version of the game for download. According to Brad McQuaid, the full version seems to be misplaced and nowhere to be found.
Few people mentioned to have ordered the full Ms-Dos/PC Version of WarWizard at the time, but never received any answer or the game. It appears that the game has been discarded by its makers without any chances ever for the full version to become available today for anyone.

UPDATE, NEW FEATURE:
DOWNLOAD THE SHAREWARE:

This is the only download available of the game on the whole internet apparently… See if you can get it to run better than I could.

Obscure DOS Shareware Games: YAB Baseball (1992)

admin — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 03:24:20 +0000

The best description I can think of for this game is that it’s a fun german shareware PC game that plays like the old NES game Baseball but has graphics somewhat similar to early SNES. The cost of the game to register is 20 Deutschmarks but the authour would accept half from elderly, students, poor and disabled. The game wasn’t exceptional in any way, but it was fun for its simplicity. Also, as a German thing the word Yab is pronounced “Jab”. The game features 2 real MLB team names but solely because of their colours. Blue = Blue Jays. Red = Red Sox. I let the game sit a bit to reach the credits then put it into demo mode to show the gameplay.

Obscure Classic DOS Security Shareware Program: Eyeguard (1990)

admin — Sun, 06 Jun 2010 23:59:10 +0000

Eyeguard is a very obscure, very strange DOS password security program (which means it’s largely innefectual in the era anybody could walk up with a boot disk). The shareware version only had the two messages, Eyeguard is on duty and Eyeguard is watching you, but the registered version supposedly had different avatars and you could customize whatever messaged you wished it to say. The reason for the horrible audio quality also is because it didn’t even use a sound card. It put the synthesized voices straight through the old PC speaker!

Obscure Shareware Games: Plague of the Moon (1994)

admin — Thu, 03 Jun 2010 00:30:04 +0000

This is a rare, very hard to find adventure game. The Shareware version (which is what I play here and appearantly sucked at) has nag screens, censored gore, little to no music and sound effects. The registered version (which is ultra rare) supposedly has a lot more features (including sound, music, full gore and no nag screens). You play Alucarda, daughter of a Witch who was burned at the stake. Your mother comes to you as a ghost and asks you to avenger her death, thus setting the story in motion. I probably would have played it more if I knew what I was doing back in the day. Overall it seems like a fairly good game considering it was made by just one person. A real labour of love.

…

Oh yeah, kind of messed up the intro video because I had to look after my Son again
