What Keen games are you currently playing?

Bump. Keen 2 had once, long ago, come off as difficult and scary to me, and I recently tried it again, and it turned out to be very easy (turn the lights off, duh). And with that, the only ones I haven't beaten yet are Keen 4-6 on hard mode. That's what I'm busy with right now.

In fact, I haven't played Keen 5 that much and hadn't even beaten it on Normal, but now that I'm playing it (I'm planning to skip beating it on Normal, opting for Hard first), I must say that the level design is really amazing.

Yeah Keen5 is surely the best official game!!
I am currently marvelling at both Fall Up and Retrosis, and also finally giving KeenZ a proper play after numerous years. I also find myself revisiting Yorphius II on a regular-ish basis!

I can understand that, it has some of the best designed keen levels of all time.

When I try to run Yorphius II in DosBox I get this error message:
Illegal command: %CK1Patch.
I have downloaded this game from three different locations: KeenWiki, Bipship and Beyond the Pogo and I get this same error from all three downloads.

I had the same problem. I think there's a % sign in the batch file that shouldn't be there, which you can just delete to make CKPatch run. I'm pretty sure that's what I did, if I'm remembering right.

That is what I did and now the game works. I already have six levels complete and have two of the four actuators. This mod is a hell of a lot simplier than Keenrush's next three mods. When I complete this, I will probably go back to playing Mystery on Isis IIa, DITD Community Levelpack, The Eight Accumulators and Clouds Unseen.

FYI, I've updated the Yorphius II download on the wiki, so poor Syllypryde will be the last to have to suffer!

Mystery of Isis IIa- I am on level 8 - Command Center, cannot get past it.
DITD Community Levelpack - completed easy twice, fifteen levels complete on normal, stuck on Stalagburn Caverns, The Volcano and Impossible Palace
The Eight Accumulators- completed easy twice, normal now complete, stopped being a point hog in Well of Wonders and saved the last accumulator.
Keen 9 - For kicks playing Elevator Access Station, The Krodacian Overlabs and The Warpcore on hard.

I got my old computer back and played me some Keen 8. Kinda forgot how fun it could be.

I'm playing The Universe is Toast. But I still like to play the old ones...(I think I've played the originals far more often, though...
