This week, I finally made some serious progress in Elvira II, only to find out that a significant chunk of the game is now a dungeon crawler. #retrogaming #amiga almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/10/elvi...

I'm trying to play every FPS ever made, roughly in order and most other kinds of shooters, roughly in order. Less about the history and more about how they play. https://almostafamine.blogspot.com/

This week, I continued in Elvira II, making progress through the adventure part of the game while still finding the RPG part of the game less than ideal to get into. #retrogaming #amiga almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/10/elvi...
This week, I started up Elvira II - The Jaws of Cerberus, a title I've been looking forward to for a while. Then reality kicked in and the game killed me twenty times. #retrogaming #amiga almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/10/elvi...
This week, I continue in Star Cruiser and find out who the mysterious traitor who's been helping out the space terrorists, while doing a lot of flying around star systems. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/10/star...
This week, I continued the seemingly neverending Star Cruiser as I travel the galaxy looking for anything to give me an edge in-between cleaning up the galaxy single-handedly #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/09/star...
This week I continued Star Cruiser, and ended up finding my way to an information broker who apparently doesn't want to sell information to anyone. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/09/star...
This week, over at The Adventurer's Guild, I played through the opening section of Innocent Until Caught, at least, until I found a rather nasty bug in the game. #retrogaming #dosgaming advgamer.blogspot.com/2026/09/inno...
This week, I continued Star Cruiser, in which I finally make it out of the Solar System to an exciting new star system, where I continue to stop space pirates and space terrorists. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/09/star...
This week, in Star Cruiser, I took out most of a notorious mercenary group and travel all around the solar system looking for something interesting. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/09/star...
This week, I continued Star Cruiser, going around the solar system, trying to upgrade a legendary one of a kind ship to be usable, only to accidentally stumble upon someone being held hostage, and having to go back for him later. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/08/star...
This week, I decided to go back and do the legendary Star Cruiser properly, this time one of the original computer releases, and found it quite different than the Genesis port. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/08/star...
This week, I summarize my thoughts on the Archimedes version of Elite, the legendary space trading game. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/08/elit...
This week, for some reason, I tackled the licensed 'Allo 'Allo platformer, which is a sitcom starring a man who definitely cannot jump as high as Mario. #retrogaming #amiga almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/08/allo...
This week, I continued Elite, making more progress, only to find out that the midgame isn't that much different than the early game. #retrogaming #acornarchimedes almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/08/elit...
This week, I went back to Elite, this time the Archimedes version, and definitely had a good time going in and out of space stations. Crashing? What's that? #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/07/elit...
This week, I tackled Wolfenstein - The Second Encounter, the version of the game primarily developed for consoles, which changes around the level design and adds in some new weapons. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/07/wolf...
This week, I tackled Moto Roader, a game I knew nothing about before hand, and found out is apparently one of the worst racing games of all time. Huh. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/07/moto...
This week, I tackled Pickle Wars, a strange game published by MVP Software and made by the same people who brought you Math and Word Rescue. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/07/pick...
This week, I tackled Quest of the Space Beagle, the sequel to Jupiter Mission 1999 which asks you to take out 40 enemy ships before then throwing the hard stuff at you. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/06/ques...
This week, I tackled the second Spear of Destiny expansion pack, which was certainly an experience. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/06/spea...
This week, I tackled Overkill, a shoot 'em up published by Epic Megagames before they published Tyrian, which distinguishes itself with a wide variety of upgrades and abilities. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/06/over...
This week, I tackled the first Spear of Destiny expansion, Return to Danger, in which dead rats on the floor usually indicate secrets and the Nazis have giant bats with machineguns. It's worse than it sounds. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/06/spea...
This week I played through Jupiter Mission 1999, a strange Avalon Hill published game which attempts to imitate a trip to Jupiter gone very wrong. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/05/jupi...
This week, I finished Terminator 2029's expansion pack, Operation Scour. The rather extreme difficulty of the earlier missions has fallen by a considerable margin despite the increased enemy firepower. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/05/oper...
This week, I've somehow managed to make progress in the maddeningly difficult expansion to Terminator 2029, Operation Scour. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/05/oper...
This week I finally got back around to Terminator 2029 with its expansion pack Operation Scour, and immediately regretted the experience. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/05/term...
This week I went back to Spear of Destiny, the quickly made follow-up to Wolfenstein 3D. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/05/spea...
This week, I played through Sky Ranger, another strange Spectrum arcade flight sim, this one about going through a city, taking out giant orbs. #retrogaming #zxspectrum almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/04/sky-...
This week, I summarized my thoughts on Black Crypt, Raven Software's debut game. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/04/blac...
This week, I continued through the sun level in Black Crypt, only to be stymied by the worst foe of all, the game glitching out and rendering me unable to continue. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/04/blac...
This week, I continue ever so slowly in Black Crypt, this time going through a moon based level which may be intended to be an anti-magic zone...but comes off less so. #retrogaming #amiga almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/04/blac...
This week, I continued along in Black Crypt, fighting against hordes of enemies which required a whole mess of spells, which meant a whole lot of waiting around for those spells to recharge. #retrogaming #amiga almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/03/blac...
This week, my Black Crypt playthrough continued fairly well, despite the fact that I forgot how to properly play a blobber. #retrogaming #retrocomputing almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/03/blac...
This week, I got started on Black Crypt, Raven Software's debut, a Dungeon Master-clone with a very obvious Dungeons and Dragons influence. #retrogaming #amiga almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/03/blac...
This week, I played Cad-Cam Warrior, a strange shooter where you go between two halves of a computer chip. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/03/cad-...
This week, I got through most of the less complete than advertised Gameboy Color version of Resident Evil. In the process, I think I found a very important lesson in game design. #retrogaming #residentevil almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/03/resi...
This week, I started up the unreleased Gameboy Color port of Resident Evil, which has quickly shown itself as both a technical marvel and an annoying thing to have to play through. #retrogaming #residentevil almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/02/resi...
This week, I played through Electro Man, one of the odder entries in Epic's early catalog, one which plays more like an '80s game with a graphical coat of paint than something from the early '90s. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/02/elec...
This week, I returned to Wolfenstein 3D, going through several versions of the game, including a very odd Acorn Archimedes port. #retrogaming #fps #wolfenstein3d almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/02/wolf...
This week, I tackle Alien Sector, one of Namco's more forgotten arcade titles. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/02/alie...
This week, I tackle TerraHawks, a license of the classic Gerry Anderson series, which somehow does not share any elements whatsoever with said series. #retrogaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/01/terr...
This week, I tackle Beyond Castle Wolfenstein, the seemingly forgotten sequel to the original Castle Wolfenstein and blow up Hitler...again. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/01/beyo...
This week I sum up my thoughts on MechWarrior, the first in the long-running mech simulation series. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/01/mech...
This week, I finish up MechWarrior and discover just how a seemingly balanced match-up can go against me. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2026/01/mech...
This week, I sort of just traveled across the galaxy in MechWarrior, sometimes finding clues to a murder mystery and sometimes finding how deep the sandbox is. #retrogaming #fps almostafamine.blogspot.com/2025/12/mech...
This week, I started up the original MechWarrior by Dynamix, and start off very confused by the story. #retrogaming #fps almostafamine.blogspot.com/2025/12/mech...
This week, I summarize my thoughts on Battlehawks 1942, Lucasarts first flight sim and manage to sneak in the obligatory Star Wars comparison, but not the way you might think. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2025/12/batt...
This week I made it through Battlehawks 1942, and find the many ways in which the game seems to be making its two campaigns, which are supposed to be about the same battles, very different. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2025/12/batt...
This week, I start up Battlehawks 1942, Lucasarts first flight sim, and find out just how difficult it is to destroy and defend an aircraft carrier. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2025/11/batt...
This week I tackled PHM Pegasus, a game centered around a unique hydrofoil class of patrol boats, which tries to be more than it's peers of the time. #retrogaming #dosgaming almostafamine.blogspot.com/2025/11/phm-...
