About
 
Text-mode games, ASCII games, ANSI games, text-based games. No matter what you call them, we celebrate them here: fun, inventive, visually compelling games created by pioneering designers using only 16 colors and the 255 symbols in the IBM-extended ASCII character set.
The games featured here are shareware, written by various authors, that I have collected over the years (only one game, Codebreaker, was written by me). I still find these old DOS games fun to play, and it is my hope that as you stroll through our virtual museum, you'll take a few moments to download, play, and admire these gems from a simpler time in computing.
