I played Duke Nukem 1 Redux a few weeks ago, it's pretty damn good.
A few months ago I played Crystal Caves and Secret Agent.
I'd really like to play Ultima Underworld but the controls and menus are poopy, and all the "ports" of the game don't fix them.

MoO 2 isn't a game though. It's a way of life.
It's proto-Factorio, in a sense.

(Shit- someone ship Kovarex a copy of MoO 2 and get him to build the 4X game to end all 4X games.)

If you know nothing about setting up dosbox and the like, just look into exoDOS, it comes with everything preconfigured.

Recommendations for games which will run on a Tandy 1000? Recently picked up a HX and want to play some games on the old thing.

>>743252035
HOMM1 had better balance than 2 because 2 just copied all the units from 1 without adjusting for the fact that the battlefield now has 2x the number of tiles

hocus pocus was boring as hell

I am atm...well, it's a DOS port of a PC88 game, Zeliard. Currently in the eighth area of the game, trying to figure out how to get to the lion head key. Really fun game. To me it kind of feels like what I hoped Ys III was going to be.
Both games do have pretty killer soundtracks at least.
>>743244680
Redux? What does it change? Is it still in DOS or is it a Windows thing?
>I'd really like to play Ultima Underworld but the controls and menus are poopy, and all the "ports" of the game don't fix them.
I ended up playing Ultima 1-3 instead, but I bet you just need to give it another shot. I always try to play a game a few times if I'm not totally repulsed by it before I decide to not play through it, if it caught my initial interest. The thing about weird controls is that you're going to eventually get used to them, and then they're not weird, usually.
