Trixter's Abandonware: Arcade

Title	File Size	Graphics	Sound	Cracked?	Boots?	Runs on:	Comments	Extras
Alleycat	35 KB	c	P	y	n	all	One of my very first pleasent PC gaming experiences. Run fast if you want to jump higher!
Avoid the Noid (EGA version)	231 KB	e	P,a	y	n	all	This is the rare EGA/Adlib version
Bad Street Brawler	62 KB	c,e,t	p	y	n	all	This is the full 16-color version, not the broken 4-color version that's floating around. Also has cool intro.
Batman, The Caped Crusader	175 KB	e,?	p	?	n	?
Batman: The Movie	379 KB	c,e,v,t	?	y	n	all
BattleZone	42 KB	c	p	y	n	8086	Great port of the arcade game, considering that it runs on a 4.77MHz machine.
Body Blows		v	p,a,s	?	n	286+
Buck Rogers	29 KB	c	p	?	y	8086
Conquest	34 KB	c	P	y	n	8086	Joust clone, made by Windmill software (same people who made cool DigDug clone Digger)
Death Sword	53 KB	c	p	y	n	all	EXCELLENT fighting game for two friends--my friend Brian and I used to play this for hours! (you can play the computer, but it's not as much fun)
Dig Dug	19 KB	c	p	y	n	all	Runs okay on faster machines, except the joystick support is messed up.
Digger	56 KB	c	P	y	n	8086	A cross between Dig Dug and Mr. Do, this game was very popular in the 80's. Play this off of a floppy disk only!
Double Dragon 2	544 KB	c,e	p	y	n	8086,286
Double Dragon 3	544 KB	e,v	p,A,X	y	n	all	Good Adlib music conversion by Vibrants
Double Dragon	414 KB	c,e,t	p	y	n	8086
Dragon's Lair 1	3.63 MB	e	p	y	n	all	The first conversion of the popular laserdisk game; ega graphics only, no sound, but hey: it fits on 3 disks. :)
Dragon's Lair 2	2.78 MB	c,e,v,t	P,a,s	y	n	all	This time, they got it right. A new graphics and sound engine provide amazing animation playback even on an 8086. This was officially labeled #2, but it's essentially half the puzzles of the arcade game.
Dragon's Lair 3	4.49 MB	c,e,v,t	P,a,s	y	n	all	More of the same, but while this is labeled #3, it's really a full port of Dragon's Lair 2: The Curse of Mordred. All new action.
Frogger II (Three-Deep)	68 KB	c	p	?	y	8086	Arcade game by Sierra in 1983
Galaxian	13 KB	c	P	?	y	8086	Didn't display anything on a VGA card, but worked fine on a real CGA card. This is the official PC port of the game, approved by Tengen.
Gauntlet	120 KB	c,?	p	y	n	8086	Buggy port of the arcade game
Ghostbusters II		c,e,t	p,a	?	n	all
Gods	1.04 MB	v,e,?	a,s	y	n	286+	Bitmap Brothers game
Gremlins	34 KB	c	p	y	n	8086	Based on the movie. Extremely rare.
Heavy Barrel	349 KB	c,e,?	p	y	n	all	This is the unprotected 1995 release of this great arcade game (original quickdos version was 1988)
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom	93 KB	c,e,t	P	y	n	8086,286
Jackal		c,e,t	p	n	n	8086,286
Jr. Pacman		c,e	p	n	n	?
Jungle Hunt	40 KB	c	p	y	n	8086	"Official" translation of Jungle Hunt for the PC. Buggy...

Marble Madness	213 KB	c,e,t	p,t	y	n	8086,286	Excellent port of the arcade coin-op by Will Harvey (Music Construction Set, The Immortal
Ms. PacMan	22 KB	c	p	y	n	all
Operation Wolf		c,e,t,v,X	p,a,t	?	n	all	Great 1st-person shooter, if a bit difficult
Pinball Fantasies		v	P,a,s,X	n	n	286+	Amazing graphics and sound for a 286 and higher
Pole Position 2	129 KB	c,e	p	y	n	all
Purple Saturn Day	522 KB	c,e,t,v	P	y	n	286+	Oddball game where you're in an "interstellar competition." It's really a set of 4 well-programmed action games, which are definitely worth playing. The digitized intro music is very well done.
Qix	195 KB	c,e,v,t,h	p,A,t,?	y	n	all	Excellent port of the classic arcade game
Rampage		c,e,t	p	?	n	all
Rampart	883 KB	e,v	p,a,s	y	n	?
Renegade	429 KB	c,e,t,v,h,X	p,a,t	y	n	all	Port of the Arcade Game
Revenge of Defender	464 KB	c,e,t,v	p	y	n	8086,286,386	Defender, but with many enhancements. You will need a slowdown utility if you have a 486 or higher, unless you play the EGA version, which runs at the correct speed (this is because the EGA version uses seperate video pages and page flipping to animate the sprites, and there's a physical limit of 70 fps when you pageflip--the other modes write directly to the screen, and run way too fast on faster machines)
Roboman	49 KB	c,e,t	p	y	n	all	Jumpman clone from XOR Corporation
Sega Hits	(dir)	c,e,t	P	y	n	all	A multi-game package: Alien, Afterburner, Outrun, Shinobi, and Thunder blade
Sidearms	54 KB	c	p	y	n	8086	Tough game; don't try to play it without a joystick
Sky Shark	500 KB	c,e,t,h	p,a,t	y	n	all	Port of the arcade game
Space Ace 1	2.49 MB	c,e,v,t	P,a,s	y	n	all	Like Dragon's Lair 2 and 3, Space Ace is an excellent conversion of the arcade coin-op laserdisc game. The animation and sound are excellent, but the gameplay is a bit frustrating.
Space Ace 2	3.11 MB	c,e,v,t	P,a,s	y	n	all	More of the same (every scene from the coin-op that isn't in Space Ace 1 is in Space Ace 2).
Spy Hunter	25 KB	c	p	y	n	8086	A conversion of the arcade classic.
Striker	50 KB	c	p	y	n	8086	Cool clone of scramble; very well programmed for its time.
The Light Corridor	200 KB	c,e,t,v	p,A	y	n	all	Cool 3D game where you bounce a ball down a corridor. Another quality Infogrames game.
