Hi.
I was wondering if anyone was familiar with any websites on the internet where one could purchase or download for free the full verisons of old DOS games like Jill of the Jungle, Hocus Pocus, etc. I've looked on Amazon and eBay with no luck.
Thanks for any leads.
Robert
Not sure of where to find the DOS games you specified, but if you're an old Infocom adventure game fanatic like I am and miss your old DOS versions of Zork, Planetfall, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and other wonderful Infocom games, you'll love this site.

the link has good games and it reminded me of "old" times.
thnx for the link Butrflynet!
I've never actually gotten anything from this site, but it does look interesting. One must be careful when dealing with abandonware, as it's not always abandoned. Copyright infringements and what not. But there is a large database of older games
here.
My wife and I used to play a game called "Make Tracks". It was somewhat similar to Pacman. You were trying to paint the hallways and rooms of a house, as various pets walked over the fresh paint. It was really cute. I'll have to try the links and see if I can find it.
