What is your favorite underrated or unknown DOS game?
What is your favorite underrated or unknown DOS game?
We all love our "Doom"," Command & Conquer", "Commander Keen" etc.
But what is a game that you love that no one seems to know and/or like? What is that one gem that makes you type your "C:>cd games" just that little tiny bit faster?
I'll go first. My pick is Normality from 1996 by Gremlin Interactive. A 3D first person point and click adventure with FMV Cutscenes. It's goofy and weird but perfectly playable. I highly recommended anyone who loves point and click adventures to try this one out. It's basically Doom Point 'n Click

Not sure about underrated, but definitely mostly unknown anymore, would have to be Star Control 2.
The exploration, combat, and humor are all just so involving. I can pick it up now and enjoy it as much as I did decades ago.
Add to it, Marble Drop and Full Tilt from Maxis. Marble Drop was a fun puzzle game with marbles in intricate machines, and Full Tilt was three Pinball games, one of which was the original Space Cadet Windows later used with XP. The other two tables were pirate and dragon slaying based, but equally as engaging for me

Melee mode was great. As was the music.
