First time I played System Shock was around 1998 but I have never managed to find one button so I never finished it. Two decades later, Night Dive studios released the Enhanced Edition current hardware and has “modern” controls. I started a game, completed several levels, and then real life started interfering so I shelved the game once again. In April of year 2020, the Dos Game Club selected System Shock as the game for the month.

Episode 39 of the Dos Games Club podcast is out, join Martijn, Florian, Tim, Elias and me to discuss Worms, the legendary game that started the franchise with over 20 sequels. In this episode we also assist live to the final match of our club tournament between Florian and Tim.

Today, my friends at DOS Game Club released a new episode of the podcast. I was one of the guests and together with Martijn, Tyler and Matthew we sat for a long chat about an old-time classic: UFO: Enemy Unknown, published by Microprose. In North America this game is known as X-Com: UFO Defense. This game started a long series of games in all genres and is one of the longest going series.

A new episode of Dos Game Club podcast was released today. Martijn and Florian invited Oddvar me to discuss Blackthorne, one of the early Blizzard games. This game is a “slow” platformer, similar to Flashback.

Over at the DOS Games Club we have played six small games1 during the cold month of December. I have suggested playing UGH! and joined Florian, Martijn, Mike, Philipp and Tim on the 25th episode. In February we will be operating on unfortunate patients in the Life & Death. Ugh!, Bolo Ball, Micro’s Dilemma II, Lode Runner, Alley Cat, MinerVGA ↩︎

A new episode of Dos Game Club podcast was released today. This 22nd instalment is about a legendary game: The Secret of Monkey Island. I have been fortunate to be able to join Martijn, Florian, Mike, Philipp and Esko to discuss this great game during an epic 3 hour session.
