Before the rise of VGA graphics and CD-based adventures, Arctic Adventure (DOS) stood out as one of the most charming platformers of the early 90s. Developed by Apogee Software in 1991, the game sent players to the frozen north with treasure hunter Nevada Smith, blending classic platforming action with exploration, simple puzzles, and the unmistakable shareware magic that defined Apogee's early catalog.
Before modern city-builders introduced 3D skylines and complex economic systems, SimCity (DOS) laid the groundwork for everything that followed. Released by Maxis in 1989, this groundbreaking game introduced players to the idea of designing, managing, and growing a living city from scratch. With its zoning system, budget management, public services, and disaster scenarios, SimCity became a defining title of the simulation genre and one of the most influential PC games ever made.
In an era when DOS shooters were dominated by corridor-based gunplay, Terminal Velocity (1995) burst onto the scene with something completely different — blistering flight-speed combat, sprawling alien worlds, and a sense of freedom rarely seen in PC games of the time. Developed by Terminal Reality and published by 3D Realms, this iconic sci-fi shooter put players in the cockpit of the TV-202 fighter jet and unleashed them across massive battlefields filled with aerial duels, tunnel chases, and explosive firepower.
After becoming one of the most iconic browser games of the early 2010s, the Earn to Die series returned with a massive, ambitious sequel: Earn to Die 2. This expanded chapter took everything fans loved about the original games — physics-based driving, upgrade-heavy progression, and chaotic zombie smashing — and delivered a much larger adventure built around a full mission-based story mode. With longer levels, multi-route environments, destructible structures, and bigger vehicles to customize, Earn to Die 2 set a new benchmark for the franchise.
When the platforming genre began shifting into full 3D worlds in the late 90s, Rayman 2: The Great Escape (N64) emerged as one of the most polished, imaginative, and memorable games of its generation. Released by Ubisoft in 1999, Rayman 2 abandoned the 2D style of its predecessor and leaped into 3D with incredible confidence, delivering lush environments, engaging characters, and finely tuned gameplay that earned it instant classic status on the Nintendo 64.
