Virtual Pool.

Back in the day, Virtual Pool was a 3D Pool Simulator for MS-DOS.

You could play against the computer or a friend. The game included some MIDI tuneage & videos of legends Steve Davis & Ronnie O'Sullivan.

Lemmings.

They're cute. They're floofy. Sometimes they explode, & they need your help.

Psygnosis' classic puzzle game sees you guide lemmings through stages to safety by using a set of "skills".

This particular example is the 5 1/4 inch Commodore 64 floppy disk version of the... 1/2

TRL was the first game in a trilogy that also featured Anniversary & Underworld.

In Legend, Lara, aided by her accomplices Zip & Alistair, goes on a globe-trotting adventure to recover fragments of the legendary sword Excalibur. Itself rumoured to be a key... 1/2

I'll put up one of the games I played this evening for #ARandomGame.

180.

A game that celebrates the venerable sport that is Pub Darts.

To be fair, you do get a little animated pub scene when it's the computer opponent's turn, & it does have a sythesised voice that proclaims "One Hundred... 1/2

Resident Evil Zero.

Before the Mansion Incident, Rookie STARS Bravo Team member Rebecca Chambers has to survive their helicopter's engine failing, a run in with a convicted mass murderer (who is not what he seems) and a training centre full of zombies and monsters.

She's... 1/2

Big Red Racing.

It's wild. It's wacky. It's not entirely politically correct. 😅

This racer for MS-DOS & Windows 95 sees you racing a variety of off road vehicular devices on courses around the world (& some even off the world! 😅😅).

Sonic & Knuckles Collection.

Back in the day, SEGA released this collection, which was essentially variations of the Sonic 3 / Sonic & Knuckles combination of games for Windows 95.

It also came with a Sonic Screen Saver.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chornobyl - Enhanced Edition.

A free roaming, FPS adventure in the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone.

The interesting thing to note here is that I have it running in Linux Mint. Not Windows.

Bee 52.

A game that was to be sold under the CodeMasters label in 1993 for the C64, but as CodeMasters pulled out of the C64 market that year, the developer reached an agreement with CodeMasters to sell the game via mail order.

You control the titular bee, who much collect... 1/2

Super Mario World.

I think this was the first, non-handheld, Mario game I ever experienced. (Though back then, it was on my friend's SNES.)

Now, I have a SNES & my own cartridge of the game! 😊👍

A space shoot 'em up where you are the only thing standing between Earth and an intergalactic enemy who has launched ballistic missiles at the planet.

For no reason other than I felt like it, another #ARandomGame! 😅

Super Runabout for Dreamcast.

As a delivery driver or a cop, you chose your vehicle & go forth into San Francisco to complete missions, doing many crazy things in the process. 😅😅

As Fox McCloud is being talked about a lot lately, for this Friday's #ARandomGame, I'll share one of my favourite StarFox games: StarFox Assault.

It's a more "traditional" StarFox game after Adventures, but I really like how the team work in this game.

🎵 It's time for Animaniacs
And we're zany to the max
So just sit back and relax
You'll laugh 'til you collapse
We're animan-iacs 🎵

In this 3D adventure, the Warner Siblings must find & collect the stolen Edgars, before an award ceremony.

Today's #ARandomGame is Microsoft's Combat Flight Simulator.

It's World War II & you must represent your chosen side's air force in aerial dogfights to determine the future of Europe.

I... may need to work on my landings. 😅😅😅

A little chill driving for today's #ARandomGame, with Geoff Crammond's Grand Prix 2.

So what we have here is:

Gerhard Berger's Ferrari at the Ti Aida Pacific Circuit.

A view of Lowes Corner at Monaco.

The Bus Stop Chicane at Spa-Francorchamps.

Forza Horizon 3.

Because sometimes, as a collective, we have to take a bunch of cars, and do many wonderful (and crazy 😅) things.

Australia seems like a wonderful, & welcoming place to do these things.

Jimmy White's 2: Cueball.

2 beautifully detailed rooms. One Snooker themed, the other Pool themed.

But you can also play games like Draughts, Darts & DropZone too.

Sometimes, it's nice not to destroy the world for a change. 😅
