This is an interesting project. You may also want to try: Moonbugs, Flightmare, Jumpjet, Double Dragon, Arkanoid, Platoon, Sentinel, OutRun, Elite, Driller, Xenon, Defender/Stargate, Populous, 688 Attack Sub, Carrier Command, SimCity, Starquake, Uridium

You may want to run VGA/EGA games in CGA mode for greater speed.

And you can use NetTamer to get it on the internet.

Kyrandia and CD-Man run on XT??? That's one mean retro machine you got.

Kyrandia would struggle on 4.77MHz, but on 10Mhz it's playable. And I was as surprised as you to see it run like this! (My favorite adventure game btw. 😀 And CD-MAN? With speed set on "warp" in first in-game menu, the game actually becomes so fast it's unplayable (with CPU set on 10MHz). On the other hand, I've tried 8086 port of Wolfenstein3D, and even in a smallest possible windows it's simply too slow to play. But hey, at least it works! 😀

Thanks! So far I've tried original SimCity and it runs great (except city map, which takes few seconds to render). And NetTamer is ready, as are DOS packet drivers, still waiting for AUI/RJ45 transceiver though.

My family had a Peacock XT with V30 10MHz CPU and Hercules graphics. I remember playing games like Space Quest I-III, Leisure Suit Larry I-IV, Prehistorik, Hot Rod, F-19 Stealth Fighter, Test Drive and many more. Some with help of simcga, thank god for that 😀 I really hated the 360k drive and envied my friends who had 1.2MB floppies 😀

What was gaming on the Hercules like? Running DOSbox in Herc mode makes my eyes water...

Leisure Suit Larry IV???

On a proper Hercules monitor it's quite nice. Ours was amber so everything that wasn't black was yellowish/orange 😀

Sorry, that's LSL3 😀

"Grime" by Mark Elendt should be playable (may be too fast)

IIRC, it writes high scores to floppy A: and locks up if there's no disk in the drive. Either keep a blank floppy in there or overwrite the INT13 calls in the code with NOPs.
