• Talking to John Passfield and Pete Mullins
    Dec 22 2025
    As regular listeners will know, our podcast usually includes a bit where we dive a little into the history of how a game came to be and who was involved with its creation. That part was missing from our recent Halloween Harry episode, and with good reason, because we got a chance to sit down […]

  • Halloween Harry
    Dec 20 2025
    We like to pick spooky games for October, as we feel it fits with the Halloween season and everything. We wouldn't say Halloween Harry (1993, developed by Interactive Binary Illusions and SubZero Software, published by Apogee) is a particularly scary game. It does feature a lot of zombies. But more than anything it has "halloween" […]

  • Ascendancy
    Nov 20 2025
    As noted earlier, we seem to be having a bit of a space-themed streak at DOS Game Club this year. And it continues with September's game: Ascendancy, a 4X turn-based strategy game from 1995, developed by The Logic Factory. Pick one of the wild and very imaginative alien species featured in this game and get […]

  • Golf games!
    Oct 28 2025
    We've done some multi-game episodes, where we take a look at a whole genre of (typically) sports-type games. We've looked at skiing games, we've looked at pinball, we've looked at cricket. But this month is our most ambitious one yet, in which we venture into the world of PC golf. No fewer than 50 games […]

  • Planetfall
    Oct 1 2025
    What happens when a lowly Stellar Patrol ensign, stuck with endless busywork aboard the S.P.S. Feinstein, suddenly finds himself the lone survivor on a mysterious, crumbling outpost? Intercom's 1983 Planetfall isn't just another text adventure. It's a mix of sci-fi exploration, survival, and an emotional punch to the gut. Will we uncover the secrets of […]

  • Frontier: Elite II
    Aug 29 2025
    With Earthworm Jim previously and Planetfall up next, you could say we're on a bit of a space-themed streak here. But while those games have lots of other things going on, the Elite series puts the vastness of outer space absolutely front and centre. When the original Elite came out in 1984 the sheer scale […]

  • Earthworm Jim
    Aug 9 2025

  • Loom
    Jul 4 2025
    "Rise, son of Cygna. It is the dawn of your seventeenth year. The Elders await you in the sanctuary." If you didn't listen to the 30 minute audio drama first, you'd have no idea what's going on when you first play Loom (1990, Lucasfilm Games). And if you did listen to it, you probably weren't […]
