It's been a long time since I've played Dark Colony, so I don't remember story details, but that could be it.
You crack me up little buddy!

Excellent,

Maybe it wasn't as good as other strategies of that period, but it still has some kind of appeal. I guess it's the overall dark and gloomy atmosphere. And the creepy animal noises you hear during the night on Mars...

I couldn't figure out that game when I played it... I wasn't even sure how to build structures.

Was it the Mournament of Mars, some apogee game back in the late 80s?
My Commander Keen life, started a long time ago - on a nice and beautiful sunny day back in the year 1994. I was only six years old back then. I used to play it alot on a then 815MB HD, 32MB ram computer.... Oh that was these days.... Now I'm 24.

Bumping an old thread because why not. Now, here is one hard DOS game for you:
The question is from which game it is? If you don't know the answer, but decide to google it, please wait 3 days before replying in case anyone else knows it.

Prehistorik 2!
Such an amazing game. Along with Keen 6 and Prince of Persia, this game was the staple of my platforming experience back when my family had a 486.

Since I can't let this go, even though it was 4 years ago, this:
So many ways to die.
Is from Space Quest 3.
I would love to know the two new ones posted, especially the first one. Looks interesting..

Yes, lemm guess it: The Blues Brothers 1. There's a sequel which sucks. But the first one you can try it. It's hard, but interesting.
The first one I'll reveal tomorrow in this post.

That's correct. It's also been a heavy influenced my EGA artwork.
