I'm sorry if this has been discussed, I haven't found a very exhaustive list of mode 10h games. Maybe they were just super uncommon? If one exists can someone point me to it?
thanks in advance!

There's plenty of 640x350x16 games, just search for them in genres like strategy/puzzle, not arcade.
Blockout, Color Lines, Netwars, Sierra's 3-D Helicopter Simulator, Sim City...
And there are special cases like Lemmings, where the gameplay is in 320x200, but the title screen in 640x350.

.. CD Man, EGATrek, SimAnt, Frederik Pohl's Gateway, Wonderland (Magnetic Scrolls titles) also use 640x350, afaik.

Basically all the early Legend games: Spellcasting 101-301, Timequest, Gateway, Homeworld, Eric the Unready. They all run (optionally) in 640x350.

Thanks! Speaking of Spellcasting 101.. According to Mobygames, "Panic in Cobra City" *may* also support EGA, depending on the version. 😉
(The common version seems to use VGA@640x480, with black bars, though. The MegaTech intro seems to require VGA, at least).

Sorry for necromancing.
CM does works in DosBox with machine=ega, animated revolver-themed intro including.
There's that pesky file called setup.exe 😉 with ega/vga choice - but sound device can be changed in game too...
PS God, i hated that my copy BID was set to EGA (and apparently setup.exe was missing) - signal timing was different from "common" modes so picture moved from 'center' position noticeably.
