Adamski the HodgepodgeAre there any <a href="https://speedlines.stctp.zone/tags/dos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#dos</a> gamers out there who can help me out? There was a Pipe Mania clone I played in the early 2000s on one of those "1001 games for your home computer" type CDs (it also contained the text adventure Humbug and the Hugo Trilogy) I have no idea what it was called or how to find it but it had cool visuals and some levels had bonus toilets and stuff. I checked out actual Pipe Mania and while this is a similar game, it's just not quite the same.

CONFIG.SYS: LOADHIGHDragonsphere is a forgotten <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/DOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DOS</a> adventure. Undeservedly imo, I enjoyed it a lot.One of MicroProse's attempts to compete with Sierra and LucasArts (as openly detailed in the manual), with nice art and music, but which never received a sequel unfortunately.Especially so because it leaves you with a clear indication that not everything is "happily ever after" in this fantasy world.You can get it for free on GOG. Do play it with some good MIDI (emulation), some FM renditions are a bit rough.
