DOS Games Discussion

A simple 'Links to freeware sites are also forbidden' isn't very long

And as I told you, it doesn't take any longer to spend 2 seconds to see that it was freeware, than it does to edit a post, delete a link and type out that you deleted said link.

I'm not trying to start a fight here, I just want the rules to actually show what is forbidden.

It was a freeware site. Nothing illegal about it.

I tried talking to dosraider, but he doesn't want to be bothered. He told me to post here.


But my main point is, if freeware is also forbidden, shouldn't the rules say that?

As the title says, I would like some clarification of the rules please. Especially with regards to freeware. When posting, we're not allowed to link to abandonware sites. And that's fine, since abandonware is illegal. And the rules state that: a. Do not ask for copies of full games that have yet to ...

I don't think it's a fan game, but I could be wrong. :blah: Had a look at the GameMaker forums, but there doesn't seem to be any suitable place for a 'Do You Know This Game' post. :( I * THOUGHT * that game was on this site originally, but I can't find it there now. http://www...... :blah: I would b...

Yeah, it's vey similar. 'My' game was probably inspired by this Torin's Passage puzzle.

But things in Torin's Passage are a lot more detailed, with various shades of green. Mine was just plain green with dark lines.

Thanks for trying to help though.

Hey Emmzee. Thanks for the suggestion. I don't think I'm remembering 2 different games. I remember the mountain was a few screens left of the garden.

Torin's Passage is a fantastic game, but it's not the game I'm thinking of. The graphics are much too good in Torin's Passage.

I made a couple of sketches of the game, hoping it will jog someone's memory. Apologies for my terrible artistic skills. :shifty: The neighbour is sitting in his garden, having coffee. We need his 'coaster' from under the cup, so we need to convince him that the caterpiller on his flowers is a rare,...

Still looking for this...

Still hoping somebody knows what this game is.

Yeah, I mean the main character in Udoiana Raunes looks right, but nothing else. And I checked the other games, but they're still not right. Thanks for trying though. :) I don't think I've made it clear though - the game itself and the story from 'my' game are not related to Indy Jones. It's only th...

Yep, looks neat, it's on my to_play_one_day list. (Looooong list it is)

It's definately on my 'To Play' list as well

Good suggestion MrFlibble, but it's not the Udoiana Raunes games. The Indy Jones character is pretty much how I remember 'my' game, but other characters and backgrounds are not right. :blah: Thanks for trying though. :) Tales of Bingwood isn't it either.

Thanks MrFlibble. I had a look through that list, but couldn't see it there.

Thanks, but it's not Riddle of the Sphinx - the graphics are far too advanced there.

It looks more like this (sorry I couldn't find any better screenshots) - http://liortamim.tripod.com/curse_en.htm

Thanks anyway Dosraider

Thanks MrFlibble

The gameplay isn't like Indy Jones - it's just the player character that looks like him.
It's more of a classic point & click game.

Anyone?

There was a game I remember playing on my computer maybe 5 years ago? I would love to play it again, but I can't for the life of me remember what it's called. I'm hoping someone will recognise it from my description. - As the title says, it was a freeware PC game. Point & Click adventure. - The ...

It's my pleasure. Glad I could help.
