    i have made a new dos game:
    https://tstamborski.itch.io/wild-snake-boa-ii
    it is maybe a very simple game but i have written it directly
    in assembly and it’s a single com file less than 16kB.

    A new DOS game released today, and I’d love to see it added here. Star Cadre: Combat Class is a tactical combat game for the original IBM PC (8088, CGA). The game’s web page is at http://dos.cyningstan.org.uk/downloads/261/star-cadre-combat-class

    XFDOS ( https://code.google.com/archive/p/nanox-microwindows-nxlib-fltk-for-dos/downloads ) had 32 bit FLTK based games ported to DOS including fltkmm (Mastermind game) and a wordsearch game. Other games that port to DOS using FLTK are qubix and npuzzle and building FLTK on DOS provides sudoku, blocks and checkers. XFDOS also had a chess game that was ported using nano-x.

    Most games from the “DOS game jam #2” from 2020, including my game “Eradicate” are missing. You only seem to have the winner of the jam: Post Apocalyptic Petra. Here’s the jam result link: https://itch.io/jam/dos-game-jam-2/results

    “Fox hunting” is a variant of cross-country orienteering, especially popular in the Soviet Union, but also known in other countries. It is necessary to discover 5 hidden transmitters located on a 10 × 10 field in as few moves as possible. The transmitters broadcast in all 8 directions, the number on the cell indicates the number of intersecting signals. https://sourceforge.net/projects/foxoring/files/DOS/

  8. drummyfish says:

    Hello, I have made kind of a bigger game called Anarch, it’s similar to Doom and two people so far have emailed me they have independently ported it to DOS — though I haven’t tested the DOS ports, I link to them in my README. The game is completely public domain under CC0, made to be very portable. I think if you managed to get one of the DOS ports and post it here, many people (including me) would appreciate it. It’s a game I have put several years to. It’s here: https://codeberg.org/drummyfish/Anarch. Thanks for checking it out :-)

    I recently released xyWords: -Text Mode edition
    Cross-words anagram puzzler for MDA text mode
    https://4am.org/xywords/xymda.zip
    Requires: 8088, MDA, DOS 2.11+ and 256KB RAM

    Comes complete with Quickbasic 4.5 Source Code and can run off one single floppy disk. Same puzzles as xyWords CGA

    I would like to suggest adding Extreme Volleyball Infernal League to the list.

    https://raphnet.itch.io/evil

    The original is a SMS homebrew game, but an experimental DOS port is now available. The game requires a fast VGA card (VLB or PCI) and uses ModeX.

  12. Here is a new DOS game for the list: Orbit Salvager
    https://raphnet.itch.io/orbit-salvager

    It was my submission for the DOS Games June 2023 Jam.

  13. thp says:

    DOS Game Jam June 2023 is underway, it is currently set to end on July 17th, so there might be new games popping up there until then: https://itch.io/jam/dos-games-june-2023-jam

    As it stands currently, xyWords is already listed here, but chro.mono 2 (DOS port) is new, as is Carousel (not really a game, but a new program for DOS) as well as Super Trace Benchmark (also not a game, but a raytracing benchmark for DOS).

  14. Cyningstan says:

    Here’s another game for the web site: Barren Planet. It’s a strategy game that runs on an XT with CGA graphics. Released 23rd April. The game’s page is http://dos.cyningstan.org.uk/downloads/7/barren-planet. Have fun!

  15. 4am says:

    I’ve got a new DOS game to add to the list
    https://4am.org/xywords/xywords.zip
    xyWords – cross-word anagrams puzzler that includes an editor
    Requires 8088, CGA Graphics, DOS 2.11+ and 384KB RAM

    It is an early release and probably will contain bugs

    Could you create an RSS feed for “Last games added”, please? I really enjoy this site!

  20. Hello,

    I have written a program “Bulls and Cows” (= MASTERMIND).
    I would be happy if you can test the program on my Website.
    https://www.bulls-and-cows.de
    There is an online-version, a DOS-version and versions for several OS’s.

    Thanks

  23. Data Hoarder says:

    Was wondering if there is a link to just download all the games as a bulk package – I was assuming they are small downloads, maybe something worth creating in the future, some game packs?

  24. Damaniel says:

    I actually have a handful of DOS games I’ve worked on available from my Github page:

    https://github.com/Damaniel/dos_games

    The highlights are:
    – YATC: A Tetris clone I made with DJGPP/Allegro way back in 1997 when I was first learning to program
    – Move It, Man!: A Sokoban clone I made using the 160×100 CGA ‘graphics’ text mode in 2017/2018
    – Damaniel’s Pixel By Number: My latest project, a paint-by-number game similar to something like Cross Stitch World on mobile platforms. Also made with DJGPP/Allegro.

    There’s other directories in there, but they’re either unfinished projects (like Damanoid), or tools (like LOCGAED, a sprite editor for the 160×100 CGA graphics mode).

  25. thp says:

    My new DOS game, “Dzzee” is now available as version 1.1 from here:
    https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?p=1008084#p1008084

    The project also has a webpage over at http://thp.io/2021/dzzee/

  26. DOS Programmer says:

    Having a cool bitmap graphics app for making DOS games would be an essential (if you are doing everything in DOS).

    I found GrafX2, a version that works painlessly for DOS which could be helpful. Found at the following link:

  27. Samuel Ronban says:

    You could add Turbo Pascal 7.0, Ultra VGA Engine 32-bit (a graphics library for Turbo Pascal, http://www.interactionstudios.com/files/UVE140R.ZIP) and SBDSP (a sound library for Turbo Pascal, http://homepages.cae.wisc.edu/~brodskye/sbdsp/sbdsp103.zip).

  28. Here’s a new one for you. The Anarchic Kingdom is a light strategy game for DOS PCs. An 8088 with CGA graphics, or anything better, can play the game.

  32. OgreVorbis says:

    Hey,
    I’d suggest a few more tools for the tools section.
    1. SCI Studio
    2. SCI Companion
    3. PowerBASIC 3.5 + SVGAPB library

    These are all better choices than Turbo C or newer compilers like DJGPP. The EXE sizes and speed of these will be nearly as good as C and it’s 10x easier to use these tools.

    Hi,
    I’ve developed the classic Nintendo’s Game&Watch Parachute simulator for the MS-DOS 16bit operating system.
    It’s a full simulation containing Mode A, Mode B and
    Time mode with real time clock.
    Here’s the download link:

    Enjoy 😉

  34. VEG says:

    In 2006, my friend Nikita Lesnikov did a 3D game for DOS, using his own 3D engine, just for fun. You might be interested to have look at it. Source code is included (Borland Pascal 7).

    Project page: http://one.slutsk.net/fdom/

    The game was done as a joke for Nikita’s friends, so nobody else on the internet knew about this game till this moment. But I think that it is worth to share. It’s an impressive project for just 30 hours of coding without using any existing code or libraries, and without any help from internet, because internet wasn’t available at the place where it was written.

  35. Robert Johnson says:

    I managed to code and compile a simple text-based roulette game in QBasic last night. It works like any roulette game should, with the caveat that you can only place number bets

    I accidentely found a game from June 2020 for DOS named KBall.
    Cited from the official site: “A game of skill and reflexes, non violent, suitable for all ages, hours of fun! 100 % FUN
    Move the ball around the level map, without falling, without running out of time, and getting the prizes, in order to reach the exit. Full map editor included!”

  38. Hi guys,
    I Want to share a game called Double Pacman, a development by myself on 1994 for MS DOS computers.
    It’s a Pacman clone with 2 players simultaneously.
    It’s available FOR FREE in https://breadbingames.itch.io/double-pacman
    There are 2 download links, one installer for modern machines (which runs game on DosBox), and the other, a zip package containing only the game for old machines (486 or pentiums with msdos)
    Also, source code available from Github: https://github.com/moonorongo/doublePalman
    Thanks in advance!

  39. Bird says:

    I found a tool to create an RPG without needing any programming skills. It is called O.H.R.RPG.C.E and had a DOS version ready until 2006 (called version hasta-la-qb+). Unfortuneatly it is difficult to tell, how a true old DOS computer would behave with it. All I can say is that a Pentium 2 is more than enough of what’s required.

    Download link to the DOS version:

  45. Raphael says:

    I just released a new DOS game called StellarRoads:

    https://www.raphnet.net/programmation/stellarroads/index_en.php

    StellarRoads is a 2D scrolling platformer where you can only go forward and survive by skillfully controlling the vessel’s speed and jumping right on time!

    Heavily influenced by the well known 1993 classic SkyRoads by Bluemoon, StellarRoads can be seen as a sort of 2D “demake” of SkyRoads.

    Platform: DOS (or DOSBox)
    Video modes: VGA, Tandy or CGA
    Sound: PC Speaker, Tandy or Adlib

  46. https://GitHub.com/Superleaf1995/Leaf-Engine

    this is not a game but a game engine, nothing complex, just basic sound, graphics, mouse and other useful routines.

    Ever wanted to play some Mastermind, but had no one to play with?
    Dr. Mind comes to the rescue!

    Dr. Mind is a PC adaptation of the Mastermind(TM) board game. The computer generates a secret color code, then the player has to figure out the exact pattern through deduction.

    Requirements: PC-compatible (8086+), DOS 3+, 100K of avail. RAM, VGA or MCGA.

      I know about them, but there are simply too many, and it’s not exactly what I’m after, if you know what I mean… But I agree it would be good to display them in some way (as well as Wolf3D mods). I will give it a thought :)

  66. darkhog says:

    Add DOS versions of old Free Lunch Design games (best known for Icy Tower), such as Operation Spacehog and Happyland Adventures (+xmas version of the latter). DOS versions of both are a little hard to track down, but they exist.

  69. Hello there!
    Amazing (and much needed) site! There seems to be no love for our (g)old 486’s, unfortunately.

    I want to tell you about a game I wrote for the CGA Jam: https://montyontherun.itch.io/castle-of-viana

    It’s a real DOS game (requires protected mode, unfortunately). Runs fine on my 486SL-25Mhz (MS-DOS 7) and a Pentium 600Mhz (FreeDOS) and some 4MB RAM should be enough for smooth playing.

    • Sledge says:

      Hi! I actually played your game, just had not time to add it :) Great stuff btw. There were also two other DOS games in CGA JAM – Graviton and Perils of Treasure Mountain.

  70. Michael Muniko says:

    I have updated Shaw’s Nightmare to v1.9. Download it at: http://shawsnightmare.ucoz.com

    Hi! There are several RSD Game-Maker releases from the past decade-and-a-half. Most recently, here are four short, deliberately sketchy new games from a game jam the summer before last:

    http://www.glorioustrainwrecks.com/node/7454

    Shortly before that, Mike Perrucci released the puzzle game Wordlock:

    http://www.aderack.com/game-maker/index.php?title=Wordlock

    In 2002, Sean McNulty released a walk-and-punch game called Dead Awakening:

    http://www.aderack.com/game-maker/index.php?title=Dead_Awakening

    In 2001, Brandon Enterprises worked on several games, out of which only a couple are complete or nearly so; Void Raiders and Terra:

    http://www.aderack.com/game-maker/index.php?title=Void_Raiders
    http://www.aderack.com/game-maker/index.php?title=Terra

    There are other games begun during the last few years which seem to have petered out, but which technically are still works in progress. I’d love to see Alan Caudel finish Dummy Duck 7 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P37InZmAuX8), for instance. And I personally would love to finish either Byron Solomon (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlK0YO5g-70) or Bubble & Squeak (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hk3jkyQU0M). But, time! Time. Never enough of the stuff.

    Oh, I forgot to mention. On your page the 2004 version of Anacreon, a extremely well developed DOS game was not mentioned. It’s said to be more sophisticated than the Windows version. The source is open. And the additional scenario-packs from the later windows developments seem to work fine too. (But do not take my word for it, maybe it can result in bugs, later on, I do not know). Check it all out here:

    WoW! I have been hanging out on tons of DOS-sites for years, but i have never seen this page before. Great great stuff! Hope more ppl will find it. Do you know if the version of ASCII SECTOR that you have is the last one for DOS, or if the later versions are unplayable in DOS? I could not figure it out after looking at the forums and wikis on the developers site.

    All the best,
    COVOXED

      This is the latest DOS version I was able to track down :) Unfortunately there is no archive of older versions on official website, so I’m not really sure if this is THE latest DOS version.

    Here is a new Build engine game I have been working on that you might want to include in your website.

    sorry for last comment without link (I entered it into the ‘website’ field, thought it would appear as a link.

    Two of my games you might want to include on your site:

    Emeritus Pong (2008, GPL)
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/empong/

    F-Tetris (2005, Freeware)

    So you may already know this if you browse /r/dosgaming although since the account you used to post about this site only has a single post, i’m mentioning it here:

    CGA Cave http://runtimelegend.com/games/cgacave/

    It is a small game i wrote. I made this small game over the last couple of days for my old IBM PC 5150 which has an original CGA card and monitor. The game was written in C – actually i made some simple CGA routines and wrote the game to test them. The gameplay is quite simple – you are inside a randomly generated cave with walls, monsters and gold. Your goal is to collect all gold nuggets while avoiding being eaten by the monsters. When you start you are placed at a random cell in the map and you cannot see the other cells. You move around with the number keys in the numpad and (horizontally, vertically and diagonally) and “bump” on things. You can Examine the environment and Listen for monster sounds which help you figure out your surroundings (find gold and see if a monster is nearby). If you encounter a monster, you have a chance of running away. Depending on how much gold you carry (the more gold, the harder to run away) you may make it or not. You can also drop gold (it is placed somewhere randomly in a hidden area in the map – if there isn’t an appropriate place, it will be placed in a visible random place) to increase your chances, but you’ll have to go and pick it up later. When you collect all 13 nuggets you win the game.

    The game is quite small (30k) and considering it runs on my IBM PC 5150, it should run on any computer with DOS (or DOSBox) and a CGA card (…or Hercules with simcga :-P).

      Thanks, added! :)

      I actually saw your game at reddit first and then I noticed your comment here ;) So yes, I’m watching /r/dosgaming carefully! :)

    Programming Tools – FreeBasic

    Also, the Post Comment button is yellow on white which makes it hard to read.

      Links to FreeBasic (and FreePascal) added.

      Buttons – thanks, I forgot to test site in IE ;) Should be OK now.
