This game is ridiculous in the way only Shiny can produce. It will also make you scream at your keyboard because of the underwater levels. Boy are they hard....
Lemmings went 3d. It’s not the best way to play this classic game due to the clunky controls and camera, but it’s still fun once you get past that. The controls just give lemmings 3d an extra difficulty....
This game was on everybody’s naughty list. And that’s why everyone wanted to play it. It’s not the best racing game, with floaty handling, and moon inspired physics, but it was amazing with it’s localized damage model, and the option to win a race not by racing fast, but destroying your opponents or even killing every...
It’s fun, though dated. All vehicles handle differently. It’s not the worst game out there if you can look past the graphics and “edgy” presentation.

It took William Gee 20 years of mapping to finish this....

You’re in a Nazi prison, with a dead guard on the floor in front of you. You take his gun. Now you can fight your way out. This is the exciting premise of 1992’s Wolfenstein 3D, developed by id Software and published as shareware by Apogee....

This game is not hard, but it is fun. Take your hovercraft racing, shooting everyone you see. Be mindful to refuel and stock up on ammo, and you’ll do great....
It was ahead of its time. You can do quests and talk to people. It has multiple endings. There’s voice acting. It’s overall a very immersive game for its time. It is also the last commercial standalone game on the Doom engine....
You can download the free megawad, and the first too. Or you can support them and buy it for a mp3 or costum midi soundtrack....
