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.
Another World was one of those games that made you go "wooow" with your mouth wide open. The intro and cutscenes were amazing for the time it was made. Digital PC speaker sound, excellent quality polygon graphics and fluid animation are only some of the distinctive features of this game.
You play the role of a young physicist who is conducting some kind of particle test. In the middle of the experiment, lightning strikes the accelerator, turns into some sort of ball and collides with the particles. The result? You suddenly end up in another world! To make things more interesting, there will be all kinds of monsters, creepy-crawlies and even aliens making your life miserable.
The game is basically action-based, with some elements of adventure and tactical planning. It is extremely long, and can sometimes get frustrating during long levels. After each completed level, you are supplied with a code for accessing the next one, so you don't have to start from the beginning every time. As I have stated before, the sound and graphics are excellent for the time, and the gameplay is varied and certain to keep you busy for some time.
Definitely worth a look, so go ahead and download!
