I almost forgot about this classic series, Winged Warrior is an old dos rpg. The enemies were pretty neat, and overall it was a good game.

It takes place on a spaceship and has some fun weapons. This one may not be obscure to many, but I think it's a lesser known MSDos fps. It's not a very bad game, and somehow managed to spawn sequels (put Ladder Man III in the pic). Could be worth checking out if you're into old PC FPS games.Ī puzzle game where you have to collect different items to get your sprite to different parts of the stage to advance. All the enemies have great design, as do the levels and textures. I loved this game, you play as a mage type dude and shoot fireballs at the enemies. It's a pretty terrible racing game that I'll be surprised if anyone can remember.Ī very impressive FPS for it's time (came out before Wolfenstein and Doom) that I believe is mostly unheard of. This game is actually pretty bad, but I wanted to include it anyway haha.Įven worse than the above game, but I remember playing it. I urge you to at least check out the video.Īnother Apogee game, this one is pretty similar to the original Duke Nukem games.Īnother Apogee side scroller here, you play as the purple miner guy. Any fan of 2D side scrollers is sure to love this under acknowledged game. Not as much as an oldie as the other games, but this one really is superb. Just about everything is great, the music, the sharp sprites, the game is just fun. I actually suggest giving this one a go if you're into these kind of games. You play as a big frog looking guy with suction cup/plunger hands that allow you to climb walls.Ī great side scrolling shooter where you play as a bandana wearing rabbit. Yet again, side scrolling platform game heh. You play as a wizard looking guy and shoot lightning to attack. Not many old games like this like you do that. This game is awesome, I loved how you could shoot so fast. It's a side scroller.Ī side scrolling shooter made by Apogee. The game is pretty damn hard, I could never beat it. This wasn't made in the 90s, but I still have fond memories of it. The platforming is kind of choppy though. This one is also a platformer made by Epic Games, and it's pretty good for the time. You go around freeing a bunch of pets locked in cages. This one is a platformer where you play as a little kid in pajamas and slingshot rocks at zombies to attacks. Although I loved those games, I want to try to bring some old classics out of the woodwork.

I tried to think of more obscure and less obvious ones like Duke Nukem, Wolfenstein, Doom, King's Quest, Math/Word Muncher, Commander Keen, etc. I used to play loads of MSDos games as a kid, and I'm hoping some of you can add to the list. The MSDos era of gaming holds the same classic/retro feel to me that the NES and Genesis eras have.
