DOS Games Discussion

I am currently seeking a game called Rock-Slide. A user who frequents these forums, Frenkel, posted screen shots of the game to mobygames.

Here is a link to it:

All the googling I have tried has led me no-where on this one. ANy assistance would be greatly appreciated.

This may have been on a disk magazine publication,1989 is after the end of UpTime:s existence, maybe Softdisk published it for Viking Technologies?

Cool looking game. It's amazing how a black and white image can look so promising and crisp. If you find it on your own, be sure to let us know!

I have a complete set of SoftDisks Big Blue Disks for IBM, however it is not on there.

Digging into that cd.textfiles.com reference, it looks like a different Amiga game with the same name. DMS files on the Cd, Cd titled "Hottest 4- Many Public Domain Amiga Programs (October 1994)" and some other reference to a game of this name but different screenshots in Amiga game lists.

Too bad! Very nice lead.

.... crap.
Ah well, was worth a shot.
Should have known it, DMS files are amiga floppy images , can be loaded directly into WinUAE ......

i have found the game, thanks to frenkel.

exoscoriae - Where did you find it? Is there a copy available anywhere? My wife has fond memories of this game and is dying to find a copy

I haven't found a publicly available copy, but if you sign up to this forum we can PM and maybe get you sorted out.
