Hello!

At the request of my parents, I cleaned out 'my' bedroom in their house today. And came across several boxes of old DOS games on floppy disk. I considered binning them, but Gaywood wisely suggested someone on here might like them. So here we go.

For simplicity's sake, I've organised them into three sets. All are original copies. None have their instruction manuals or code sheets or code wheels or whatever. Also, none are tested or guaranteed to work, but then you are having them for free and can also justify ownership of them as just cause to download them off ("legitimate internet sources" -Ed.)

Oh, and no breaking the sets up without an extremely good reason. I can't be fussed dividing it all up and keeping track of what I've given away and what I haven't.

Set 1: Sierra* Adventures on 3.5"
Police Quest (AGI)
Police Quest (VGA)
Police Quest 2
Police Quest 3
Space Quest (AGI)
Space Quest 2
Space Quest 4
Manhunter: San Francisco
Gobliins 2
Willy Beamish
King's Quest 2
Codename: Iceman

*and members of the 'Sierra Family'

Set 2: Everything Else on 3.5"
MS-DOS 6.2 Step-up (from DOS 6.0, presumably)
3D Helicopter Simulator
Space Adventure
Terminator 2029: Operation Scour addon (note: I do have the actual proper game too, but it's a ["copy obtained by other means" -Ed.] so it's up to you if you want that. Note that this is worthless without the actual proper game)
Mechwarrior
Faces (an official Tetris cash-in)
Firehawk: Thexder 2
F-19 Stealth Fighter
A collection of PC Gamer coverdisks with a variety of demos
Silpheed
Maelstrom
F-15 Strike Eagle II
A lot of shareware games of varying quality

Set 3: Everything 5.25"

Mechwarrior
SimCity
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
The Bugs Bunny Cartoon Workshop
Mind Dance (word puzzles)
PC Crayon (hilariously terrible paint program)
Adventure Construction Set (very good!)

If you want any of these, PM me. Any donations towards the cost of postage gratefully accepted!

I'm not going to hold on to these things forever.
