Dear Abandonia visitors: We are a small team that runs one of the largest DOS Games websites in the world. We have only 3 members of staff, but serve 450,000 users and have outgoing costs like any other top site for example: our servers, power, rent, programs, and staff. Abandonia is something special. It is a library of old games for you to download. It is like an old gaming arcade with all the old games in their original format. Abandonia is a place where you can find great old games and have fun four hours and years. To protect our independence, we are dependent of our friends using the site. We run on donations averaging around 6 USD (5 Euro). If everyone reading this gave the price of a cup of coffee, our fundraiser would be made easier. If Abandonia is useful to you, take one minute to keep it online for another year. Please help us forget fundraising and get back to Abandonia.

When Abandonia was founded it was to collect and present all old games where the copyright protection had been abandoned, hence the term ’abandonware’ and the site name Abandonia.com. We are still doing our best to keep the site open and free and will appreciate your support to help it stay that way.

‐ Thank you from the Abandonia Team

We are trying to make it easy for people in every country to donate. Please let us know how we could make it easier for you.

Please give whatever you can to help us.

Decades old castle
It's been decades since the first adventurers tried their luck and skill in this place. Some looked for treasures, some for glory, but the ultimate prize was the orb of great power. Are you brave enough to enter?

Today's addition is a classic. The Wizard's Castle appeared on various systems and had various versions. Older gamers may remember alternate titles like Temple of Loth or The Orb of Zot. Some lost treasuries go to cpt renault for providing the review.

Control The Universe

Whatever you might be, a local usurper, the king of a nation, or a galactic emperor, you need to use different methods in order to keep your power over the population. I'm sure you've used a few of them in the past, ranging from assassinations and lies, to public speeches and festivals. But the most used technique, that guarantees instant success, is called... God Mode.

Sorry about that, you only use God Mode when you play the role of a space marine disemboweling aliens or a crusader decapitating demons and vampires. Strategies and RPGs are a bit more complex. There, your only option is often a saved file editor. So today we've added two editors, made personally by our member, Rogerwilco. One editor for Supremacy: Your Will Be Done (aka Overlord) and the second one is for Heroes of Might and Magic.
