Spoonboy<p>I was today years old when I realised one of the 'pilots' in the audience of the 'Art of the Kill' dogfighting lecture (bonus feature from 1991 DOS flight-sim 'Falcon 3.0'), was actually 'Top Gun: Maverick's' Rooster time-travelling in from 2022.</p><p>They were, in fact, members of a Falcon 3.0 fan forum, but the resemblance is striking!</p><p><a href="https://dosgame.club/tags/dos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dos</span></a> <a href="https://dosgame.club/tags/dosgaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dosgaming</span></a> <a href="https://dosgame.club/tags/goose" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>goose</span></a> <a href="https://dosgame.club/tags/neverforget" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neverforget</span></a></p>

vga256<p>it is safe to say that 90% of my taste in computer games is thanks to the original abandonware site Home of the Underdogs. every few months i’d make it a point to download one of their Top Dog awarded games, and all of them lived up to it. </p><p>in particular, westwood/infocom’s Mines of Titan always interested me. it never quite fit into infocom’s IF catalog, and it predated the much more popular Eye of the Beholder. i always avoided it because it looked like just another dungeon crawler. </p><p>as it turns out, Mines of Titan is far closer to Wasteland or Neuromancer than any other game. part text adventure, part rpg, it evokes a surprisingly unique world that easily fits in a philip k dick styled universe. </p><p>today, the box arrived after two decades of looking for one. per infocom’s exceptional marketing company, the browsies included in the box are wonderful - official letterheads and employee bulletins from mars corporations. </p><p><a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/infocom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>infocom</span></a> <a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/dosgaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dosgaming</span></a> <a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/gamePreservation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gamePreservation</span></a></p>

vga256<p>another obscure King's Quest IV fact: if you finish the game (and graham lives) - you're presented with a "Secret Code" at the very end of the game. my sister and i played the game for years and never could figure out what it was for - we assumed it was some kind of parser command that had to be entered during a subsequent playthrough of the game.</p><p>the actual purpose of the code?<br>when the game first went into print, each copy had a sticker in the corner that allowed the player to enter a draw for door prizes - and the grand prize a trip to merry 'ol england. the idea was that you'd finish the game, get the code, and then send in your submission to sierra to win a prize.</p><p>after the first print run was done, the sticker was removed. unfortunately, either (a) no one thought to remove the code from the end of the game or (b) more likely, cheap ass ken wouldn't pay for a programmer to strip out the code and do a new run of the floppy disks.</p><p>so everyone who played the game after that got the code without knowing where the hell it was supposed to be used.</p><p><a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/adventureGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>adventureGames</span></a> <a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/dosgaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dosgaming</span></a></p>
