One of the MS-DOS games I played was the Commander Keen series. Yes, I was fascinated by that game. I could remember my grades suffered because I was addicted to this series. I can remember there were a total of six Commander Keen games. There was also the spin-off called Keen Dreams. Those were the times of simpler gaming.
There were other games too. I can't really remember them all. I only played most of them via Shareware so I never got the official ending of the games. Other games I remember via Shareware are Jazz Jackrabbit, Hocus Pocus, Vinyl Goddess from Mars, Jill of the Jungle, Heretic (which was too frightening for me), Solar Winds, and others that I only have a vague recollection of.
If there were games on the console - there were also PC versions. However, it was more desirable to have a joystick since using the keyboard is EXCRUCIATING. I endured using the keyboard back then but the more I do it - the more I compare it to doing my homework with a TYPEWRITER.
Pretty much, it looks like these games will soon be buried in obscurity huh?
