    I’m a bit sad this isn’t on Porting Kit for Mac. I’m planning to try out Linux + Wine/Proton on an old laptop.

    Finnish Pelit gave it a high 92, with uneven difficulty and shortness being the main points of criticism.

    One more classic game on my long list of classic games to check out.

    I’m greatly enjoying last month’s DOS Game Club game TIE Fighter at the moment … so giving X-Wing Alliance a go a bit later would be very nice! I did very very briefly test the game out when I found it from a flea market in … 2014?! I probably had a Windows laptop with a disc drive back then!

    I posted quite a few of suggestions, but most of them went up for moderation (I think because I included e.g. links to gog)

    I remember playing a bit of Midtown Madness and finding it a lot of fun! It’s a very Windows-y game in my mind, maybe because it was by Microsoft, maybe for some other hard-to-define qualities!

    I have the second game on the shelf. I think this series would be essential to tackle in a Windows gaming game club!

    Glad to hear I’m not the only one with this one in my backlog.

    It was a highly praised game at the time, and for a long time afterwards. I had the feeling people thought it wasn’t bested or even matched for ages.

    Starting with a quarterly frequency sounds good to me. It’s a good point about the size of the games. And we can always adjust on the fly, for example if we have some smaller games sometimes.

    I’m happy to join as a guest on the podcast if there’s a game I’m interested in!

    I can’t remember if it was this one or the sequel I found from the dumpster … 😀

    Always was quite curious about this game. I enjoyed MechWarrior 2: Mercenaries a lot!

    Highly recommended! I played this with my partner andbI refused to look up hints until absolutely stuck. It took us 7.5 years to finish the playthrough. I think I recommend having the Universal Hint System at hand and being a bit more relaxed about hints. 😀

    I remember reading a pretty positive review and being intrigued; didn’t have the PC for new games back then though and once I did get a new PC later, this game wasn’t really around anymore.

    Now it’s available in GOG and I sure have it on wishlist. This would be a cool game to check out I think! Is this a cult classic? It has that vibe.
