Old DOS Games and Applications

I just found these old goodies and will be sharing with you. These applications are not playable on Windows Xp, vista or 7, so one need to install DOSBox 0.74 first to play/run these applications.

DOSBox 0.74 : DOSBox is a DOS-emulator that uses the SDL-library which makes DOSBox very easy to port to different platforms. DOSBox has already been ported to many different platforms, such as Windows, BeOS, Linux, MacOS X etc. It's a simple 32-bit installer.
Download DOSBox 0.74

Dos Applications :-

1. Lotus 123 v2.2 : Lotus 1-2-3 is a spreadsheet program from Lotus Software (now part of IBM). It was the IBM PC's first "killer application"; its huge popularity in the mid-1980s contributed significantly to the success of the IBM PC in the corporate environment.
Download Lotus 123 v2.2


2. Turbo C++ v3.0 : This is a free C++ programing High level language compiler from Borland. It comes with an IDE and debugger. One of the mostly used program during my engineering study.
Download Turbo C++ v3.0


3. BASIC Compiler : BASIC is a family of high-level programming languages. Originally devised as a teaching tool, it became widespread on home microcomputers in the 1980s. BASIC is considered one of the easiest programming languages to learn, and simple programs can be quickly written on the fly.

DOS Games :-

1. BM-Bio Menace : Bio Menace is a 2D, side-scrolling, platform game both developed and published by Apogee Software in 1993 for DOS. One of my all time favorites.

2. Prince of Persia : Prince of Persia is one of the most memorable game, I've ever played on DOS. It has everything like kidnapped princess, evil magician, traps, poison pots, snakes, soldiers etc. Free your princess within 60 minutes or else start it all over again. Masterpiece!
Download Prince of Persia


3. Dangerous Dave : Dangerous Dave is a 1988 computer game by John Romero. It was developed for the Apple II and DOS. A very addictive and by far most simplest game, I've ever played.

4. Alladin : Based on the Disney movie; converted from the 16-bit console arcade game. Finish the levels to save your princess Jasmine with the help from your friends (Abu and Genie). Collect apples to use as throwing weapons to defeat your enemies, and collect "genie icons" to give yourself more chances during the bonus rounds. Another addictive game on DOS.
