This is a list of games pending for the directory which I'm unable
to test on my PC(I have Windows XP). Some of these games are downloadable
because I need someone to test, score and write a description for them. I’m
unable to host all of them at once.
If you have time and will please help me. You can email me the needed
information to lachie13@yahoo.com.
I've been told that VESA games work good in Windows 2000 and I know
that DS4QB works very well in Windows 95/98. When scoring and
writing description have in mind my scoring system(1 to 10), level of scores
and style of descriptions.
7531 - The game is on German; the game objective escapes me
Acalypha ver.0.8 - Impossible to bypass DS4QB which usually
doesn't work in WinXP(DS4QB is a 32-bit library so therefore
DOSBox doesn't help)
The Adventures by TMB Production - Can't do anything on the main
menu(the game freezes or a problem with the keyboard handler in
Windows - DOSBox doesn't help; CAPS ON/OFF; NUM LOCK ON/OFF;
nothing helps)
AIIBC - DQBsetFrameRate routine problem(doesn't work in
Windows XP; freezes the program) or mouse routines(?)
Alunia - DQBsetFrameRate routine problem(doesn't work in
Windows XP; freezes the program)
Arkanoid - DQBsetFrameRate routine problem(doesn't work in
Windows XP; freezes the program) or the sound/mouse routines(?)
ATTE2 - A problem with XMS memory detection in Windows(DOSBox
runs the game too slow on my crummy PC; shortcuts and VDMSound
don't help)
Classic Checkers by Dave Stanley - Impossible to bypass DS4QB
which doesn't work in WinXP(DS4QB is a 32-bit library so
therefore DOSBox doesn't help)
Cobra - A problem with FutureLib and VESA compatibility; using VDMSound
and the VESA patch doesn't help; might be my video card(3D Rage Pro)
but I can run some other SVGA QBasic games(like TubeMaster; SVGAQB 2.5
library, 800*600 resolution; no need for VDMSound)
Connect 4 QB by WisdomDude - The game can only be played via modem
connection(it won't even start if an connection is not established);
that's really silly
Cyclone - I can't accomplish the game objective(pick up the boxes or
anything); I'm puzzled; I might be missing something but I've tried
everything
Dungeon Of Doom - A problem with QBasic reading the game files(they
feature spaces; DOSBox doesn't help); I'm puzzled
Dynamic Final - A problem with FutureLib and VESA compatibility; using
VDMSound and the VESA patch doesn't help; might be my video card(3D
Rage Pro) but I can run some other SVGA QBasic games(like TubeMaster;
SVGAQB 2.5 library, 800*600 resolution; no need for VDMSound)
Final Fantasy VII Cards - A problem with FutureLib and VESA compatibility;
using VDMSound and the VESA patch doesn't help; might be my video card(3D
Rage Pro) but I can run some other SVGA QBasic games(like TubeMaster;
SVGAQB 2.5 library, 800*600 resolution; no need for VDMSound)
Frantic Journey Build(4.29.2003) - Impossible to bypass DS4QB which usually
doesn't work in WinXP(DS4QB is a 32-bit library so therefore DOSBox doesn't
help)

the screen in not displayed properly(though the program it doesn't crash
my computer)

work in WinXP(DS4QB is a 32-bit library so therefore DOSBox doesn't help)
Kids Of Karedown - Investigating which version is the last
released(LAST NOTE: Chapter I of this game will be added in the database)
KingsLand - I don't know how to play the game(I NEED some documentation)
MegaBot - Looking for the full version(originaly released as shareware
by Top Gun Software); if full version is not available the game won't
be included in the directory
Mythology Quest - Unfinished game crawling with bugs(will probably
exclude it from the directory)
PedXing's Quest - The game freezes on the logo screen; probably a
problem of DS4QB in Windows XP
Pyro 2 - Two player only Bomberman clone; one file is corrupted so I
have to redownload the game
Quest For The King - The game freezes every now and them and I can't
load the game; I might exclude the game because the bugs are terribly
annoying
Quembest - Impossible to bypass DS4QB which usually doesn't work in
WinXP(DS4QB is a 32-bit library so therefore DOSBox doesn't help)
Raven The Joyo Commando - I have a BETA ONE 2000 version and it
doesn't have any kind of delay routine; investigating for a later
version
Secret Of Cooey 3 Demo - Impossible to bypass DS4QB which usually
doesn't work in WinXP(DS4QB is a 32-bit library so therefore
DOSBox doesn't help)

start the game which doesn't work in Windows XP

work in WinXP(DS4QB is a 32-bit library so therefore DOSBox
doesn't help)
Stick Fighters - The worst packed game ever; installation
programm sucks; if anyone has this game installed and in
better shape(easier to start) lemme know; I gave up
SubQuest - Shareware game with limited content; features an
encrypted zip file for the registered users(if I don't find a
freeware version it's going to be excluded from the directory)
Super Sumo - Impossible to bypass DS4QB which usually doesn't
work in WinXP(DS4QB is a 32-bit library so therefore DOSBox
doesn't help)

text messages don't appear in DOSBox; might exclude the game from
the directory
