Ugh, this is so lame...

cd dungeon_mayhem_5

For a DOS game?! I don't think so. It's back to DOS school for you.

Try them all is the best advice I can give you start in albhabetical order. try both bat and exe files and even try the .com file. The text files might tell you which to run.

Guys, it was just a little bit of end-of-the-week light-hearted fun! 😀

(No DOS game was harmed during the making of this post.) 😉

Is that where T comes before N and then is followed by A?
