Wish list for updated games to System 6 Hell: Games and Apps

Post by rt36ge »

To whom it may concern:
Thank you all for the wonderful content responses to help wanted inquiries. On System 6 Hell: Games and Apps for Mini Vmac and I would love to see the following games added to list with operational disk images: Ancient Art Of War, Ancient Art Of War At Sea, Microsoft Flight Simulator, Kings Quest I, Kings Quest II, Kings Quest III, Spy Hunter, Winter Games, Mac Ski, Skyfox, Police Quest I, Police Quest II, etc. Also can you create a section for system 7 games and system 9 games. I would love to see a operating version of Color Dark Castle. Thank you for the help and support,

I believe that every single one of the games you mentioned were commercial releases. Sadly, I only include freeware and shareware titles in the collection.

But if you are looking for those sorts of games, you can find them over at Macintosh Garden:

If you have any favorite shareware titles from back in the day PLEASE post the names here. I haven't added to the System 6 Hell collection lately because I can't think of anything good to add...

Thank you and I will see if there are any other shareware games not listed. Cheers,

That is a great list! I think that only about half of those are in the collection. Over time I'll probably add all the remaining titles.

One question comes to mind, though: have you got a download link for the shareware version of Shufflepuck Cafe?

Shufflepuck predates Shufflepuck Cafe; it used to be on InfoMac, I'll see if I can find a current link.

Definitely; I thought I'd put Rescue! in my list, but it appears I didn't.

I should get out my old MacAddict CDs, as all the stuff on there was publicly available :)

Oh, hey, since I back home from traveling now I think I will add some of these games to the collection.

Thanks for the suggestions. Just wanted to acknowledge them, as it might take some time to actually work through 'em all...
