This year, I bought the entire packs/bundles of [#DnD](https://c.im/tags/DnD) [#DOS](https://c.im/tags/DOS) classics via [#Steam](https://c.im/tags/Steam) as well as [#Ultima](https://c.im/tags/Ultima) 1 to 7 via [#GOG](https://c.im/tags/GOG). The last time I played most of these were from 1988 to 1996. One or two I played again sometime early 2000s, randomly. I already started with [#ChampionsOfKrynn](https://c.im/tags/ChampionsOfKrynn) and [#Ultima7](https://c.im/tags/Ultima7) Part 1, and I'm already cheating. ROFL. I mean, the packs made it easy to cheat. Back in the 90s, we had to use a hex editor like [#PCtools](https://c.im/tags/PCtools). We open the savegame file, search through it through the hex editor, and did our magic.

Q: What are the five (5) video games from the 20th Century that you want to be able to play again today? And why? \* Maybe you no longer have time, or, there are no modern ports or adaptation. \--- I'll start with mine. (in no particular order) 1. [#SimFarm](https://c.im/tags/SimFarm) It seems easier to play than [#SimCity](https://c.im/tags/SimCity), but as you progress, it is actually challenging. I love the challenge. 2. [#Empire](https://c.im/tags/Empire) / [#EmpireClassic](https://c.im/tags/EmpireClassic) (DOS version specifically). If I am not mistaken, before there was the [#Civilization](https://c.im/tags/Civilization) franchise, there was “Empire”. It was a fun game. There is [#EmpireDeluxe](https://c.im/tags/EmpireDeluxe) available on [#Steam](https://c.im/tags/Steam), but I miss the DOS version that I played a lot. 3. [#CarrierCommand](https://c.im/tags/CarrierCommand) A very fun game. Once I start playing this, time flies fast. I miss this game. Here's a video of it, it's hard to explain this game as there are many features/gameplay “modes” [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBJ0q52bXJM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBJ0q52bXJM) Modern games today are usually limited to certain themes. If it's flight, it's flight. If it's tank, it's tank. If it's strategy, that's it. Carrier Command have it all. 4. [#Hyperspeed](https://c.im/tags/Hyperspeed) / [#Lightspeed](https://c.im/tags/Lightspeed) (DOS) Years before the era of [#EVEonline](https://c.im/tags/EVEonline) came. RPG-ish space game that made me felt exploring space. This was new to me then and I enjoyed it. 5. [#StarControl](https://c.im/tags/StarControl) / [#StarControl2](https://c.im/tags/StarControl2) (DOS) I know, we can still play this today, however, what I miss with this game is the 2 player mode. You just play with your friend and blast each other to friendly matches and laughter. Being able to play 2P mode, face-to-face, is something that we have taken for granted, and now we're all just virtual avatars in online games (even online multiplayer games). \--- So, how about you?

I installed [#WarCraftRumble](https://c.im/tags/WarCraftRumble) and… I can't even link my [#BattleNet](https://c.im/tags/BattleNet) account. 😅 Well, it's a test release―that is public―so, I guess that's understandable.
