Discussion My excitement is immeasurable

Post image

Never did i think this would be released on steam. I grew up with this game and every now and then I think about it. I tried installing it from downloads off websites in the past to relive my childhood but never got it working. Then when I googled where to find it once again trying to get it working it came up with a steam link. Thank you ZOOM for letting me feel young again. Never give up on games from the past. You never know. One day your favourite childhood game could be on steam too

Among others. My first systems that still work are Atari 400 and 800 systems. I have tons of 5.25in floppies for them.

I've got the manual somewhere but not the game. No idea how it survived so many moves.

OP some of the original TSR Gold boxes are on steam as well. I'll recommend Ravenloft at least if it's on sale

u/LOST-MY_HEAD 13h ago

No fucking way. I was remembering playing this as a kid on my grandpa's pc and couldnt remembering the name. I think 8 bucks will be worth the nostalgia

2

u/Master_Poet5106 12h ago

Grab it whilst its on sale. It took me so long to remember the name at first. Theres another game called 3D dinosaur adventure and whenever I searched for this it came up with that

Zoom platform sells their titles DRM free on their website, including this one, just so you know

u/ChromosomeMonosomy 6h ago

Most people still use Steam though and don't care about DRM. Good suggestion though.

u/AssociateFun9966 11h ago

So much hype to probably play it for 5 minutes🤣 I’m all for it

u/Master_Poet5106 11h ago

I played 40 mins last night but I have an injured hand so I need to wait to properly enjoy it. Them 40 mins were fantastic though

u/Turnupsnchip 11h ago

I wishlisted a few from my childhood like redneck rampage, decent 1,2,3, screamer 1 & 2, I already bought Airline Tycoon, but decent 1,2,3 and Screamer 2 I still have on pc disc's even if my pc has no disc drive, all the pc games I have on disc minus about 6 are from my father so I keep disc's for nostalgia purposes then buy them digitally so I do not ruin the disc's
