I am trying to re-create the DOS environment of my youth. :^)
try www.dosgames.com
and http://www.the-underdogs.org/index.php
anyone
have the DOS version of Empire, Nethack (an older version that
does not need dpmi), I had a DOS version of tetris too (using regular
characters in 40 char mode) so I am looking for that too.
Well, I don't know about Empire or nethack, but I know NetBSD comes
with a character-mode tetris which quite likely would require minimal
work to adapt to DOS use.
Or are you specifically looking for "classic" software here?
