    Default Apogee

    If you were born in 1990-1992, these things should be the good old days for you.

    Heres a list of Apogee games that were out around the time I was playing them:

    Commander Keen
    Crystal Caves
    Duke Nukem 1 and 2
    Hocus Pocus
    Math Rescue and Word Rescue
    Monster Bash
    Mystic Towers
    Raptor
    Secret Agent
    Wolfenstein 3D (id software AND apogee had something to do with this.)
    Alien Carnage/Halloween Harry

    These games are all great. I've played them all, and they are very nostalgic and enjoyable. Most are platform side scrollers. My personal favorites are:

    Commander Keen
    Mystic Towers
    Duke Nukem 1 and 2
    Monster Bash

    Does anyone else remember these games?

    I played a lot of those.

    In fact, I've played all of those with the exception of Monster Bash and Mystic Towers.

    Great games. I still have most of them (at least in shareware form) on CD somewhere as well as some of the midi files from the games.

    I read that word and thought of Astromechanics, no not a game, the actual space stuff haha. Apogee being the furthest point during an earth centric orbit.

    I think I've only played Wolfenstein out of those, but that was a good game back in the day

    I remember in Doom II (I think) there were a couple of 'secret levels' that were homages to Wolfenstein. At the end of the levels (I think there were two) you ran into Commander Keen.

    I liked Commander Keen. Beat it about ten times. Unfortunately I don't have the game anymore...
    This is a signature.
