Chip’s challenge, without a doubt
I had one of the entertainment packs. I since downloaded it again but I’m not sure where it is located now. Oh well, maybe I’ll download all of them and see when I have time for them.
Klotski, rodent’s revenge, cruel.
No bang bang, alien force, hoyle?
What is that character in a few of the icons? Particularly Golf and Cruel. I remember wondering back then too.
Those are a deck of cards halfway put of the box.
Ohhh I see it properly now! I thought a deck of cards maybe, but there red icons on the card always looks like eyes to me. The blue part also looks like a wide open mouth.
Pegged
The Internet has ruined me.
SkiFree updated to run on 64-bit systems and in Wine
Chip’s Challenge and Chip’s Challenge 2 are both available on Steam
I loved chip’s challenge!
Wow! I had completely forgotten about Rodent’s Revenge. I looked up game play and I remember playing those first couple of levels and how terrible I was at it. This guys review really resonates with me.
These were on other people’s Windows computer but never ours.
If I wanted to play JezzBall, I had to walk to the other side of the neighborhood.
I think if you had the same OS, you could’ve just followed the shortcuts and copied the games. Usually games were installed in
C:\Program Files\.These games came from the Windows 3.11 era, so when these games came out, the Program Files folder didn’t exist, and long filenames didn’t exist at the time either.
Sure the posted image shows the games apparently installed on Windows 98, but the installer was designed for Windows 3.11, so if I recall correctly, the installer put these games under C:\ENTPACK.
Well, except for the odd file GOLF.DAT for Fuji Golf, for whatever reason that file had to be in C:\WINDOWS.
Thank you for the info. I couldn’t remember what the Window looked like in Windows 98. I thought it could be ME
Could be. Noticing the shaded title bar, that cosmetic feature came around somewhere between Windows 95 OSR2 or Windows 98, and stuck through ME, 2000, and even XP in classic theme mode.
No, believe me I checked (multiple times).
My parent were frugal and bought the computer that didn’t come with the Entertainment Packs preinstalled.
Edit: Didn’t think to pirate software when I was eight or nine years old, no.
Oh… I meant copy it from your friend’s computer using a disk or a CD if they had a burner.
Yeah but these were self-contained and small enough to fit on a floppy disk. You definitely could have just copied them.
Not sure where your folks were getting your computers from but this was frequently a “free” pack in during the package deal days

❤️❤️❤️ that is a screen that would have put a tremendous smile on my face back in the day. Hell, it perked me up quite a bit just now, lol
I wonder what the ‘pegged’ is
Kinda like Chinese checkers iirc
Yep except it’s single-player and the point is to erase all but one of the pieces by jumping over them with other pieces.
I was going to make a joke about how that doesn’t sound child friendly, and about how people would sometimes hide their porn in a folder named innocuously
C:/Innocously/
BUMMER
Go Figure!
