  1. Mit ein Bisschen Basteln hab ich's jetzt am Ende doch hinbekommen, Windows for Workgroups 3.11 mit EGA-Grafik zum Laufen zu bekommen. Es funktioniert, aber - ja - es macht ehrlich nicht so wirklich Spaß. Windows for Workgroups mag EGA nicht besonders.😕

    Es würde vermutlich mehr Sinn ergeben, Windows 3.1 (ohne Workgroups) zu verwenden und das System dann per FreshUp-Diskette auf Version 3.11 zu heben.

  5. These early versions of Tetris from 1986 are remarkably playable and addictive, even today. I just wanted to compare different revisions of the game, but found myself playing and coudn't stop. Oh, well.. Tetris is Tetris 😉

  6. Serious question to the TETRIS experts in the retro gaming community:

    Both of these versions of Tetris for the IBM-PC are from 1986. At least, that's what it says. But, which one is the "original"? The first? The real version? At least, for the IBM-PC? The DOS file dates are complete nonsense. I'd be grateful if anyone could explain!

    P.S. Thanks it's been cleared up. 😀

  7. Your empire might be bounded by the sea. The sea is completely impassable to your armies, but any port city will bring in 3 gold from sea trade for each adjacent sea square, in addition to that raised by taxes. Save the empire from the #Barbarians by downloading the game from cyningstan.itch.io/barbarians- #ibmpc #msdos #cga

  8. Oh, cool! Telev78 just shared a working 5.25 inch disk image of the original TETRIS by MirrorSoft. Back in 1987, EGA was the fanciest available graphics mode on the IBM-PC! Hell yeah! Interestingly, this European release was slightly different from the Spectrum Holobyte version. Comparing them side by side using 86Box.

  17. The Warhammer is a large blunt weapon for smashing enemies, requiring Bludgeoning:5 skill. Damage caused to enemies is based on the player character's Strength. It is especially fun to use the warhammer in upper and middle level dungeons, where it allows the player character to bludgeon their way through enemies as if the enemies were not even there.

  22. On the second level of Conveyors, even the guards are helpful. They push the cards onto conveyor belts for you to pick up, and play no further part in the game. But you must be quick: if you don't pick up all the cards in time, they will be carried into the forcefields and destroyed! Luckily, you can have four robots to complete this task. Choose wisely!

  27. Mountains in #Barbarians are sources of iron for your weaponry. A city beside the mountains will get 3 iron from each adjacent mountain square. Traversal is extremely difficult for your troops, though, and it can take several turns for an army to make the climb. The game is available from cyningstan.itch.io/barbarians- #ibmpc #msdos #cga

  37. The Tunic is body armour made of leather to provide light protection against blows to the body. It is more effective protection than a cloak, but lacks the cloak's stealth advantages. Requires Dodging:1 to use effectively. Get The #ChambersBeneath from cyningstan.itch.io/the-chamber #roguelike #ibmpc #msdos #cga
