Unfortunately does not have either Darkseed 2 or No. 11 Downing Street: The Adventures of Ninja Nanny and Sherrloch Sheltie, but nothing's perfect. Besides, it does have the Windows 3.1 version of The Even More Incredible Machine, which I remember fondly - in spite of us losing the manual for it and thus never getting past the copy protection for most of my life. It also doesn't run at a thousand frames per second, like the CD-ROM copy of the game I found at Goodwill does on my retro Windows 98 rig, so that's appreciated.

Is it bad that of all the games available, this is what grabs my interest? Though Castle of the Winds is pretty sweet too, as is playing a ton of poo poo that came with my first computer like SkiFree, PipeDream, and Jezzball.

Flannelette posted:Finally I miss all these bizarre experimental simple PC games. I think the dated 3.1 aesthetic helps a lot of these games stand out. An indie potato disease game today would be more elaborate to try to cater to the hardcore potato disease fans, but this was clearly a person or team who wanted to get as many people as possible into the potato disease genre.
