I had this game way, way back in 286 days, but unfortunately I couldn't remember the title.
All I can recall is it's a 2-in-1 (or maybe 3-in-1?) kind of game. The graphics is CGA, with PC speaker BGM kinda like Xenon2. No sound effects. The theme is fantasy/barbarian. It's a single-player with a variety of modes.
The game comes with at least 3 separate executables (.com files).
The first one runs the story mode. It shows a wizard giving the backstory of the game in scrolling text at the bottom. The wizard is animated; he "talks" and weeps.
The second one runs the side-scroller slash-em-up game. The player controls a conan-the-barbarian like character with a sword, and have a little protection magic surrounding him (hit-points I think). It feels quite a bit like Gods game, but with larger characters.
The third one runs an interesting driving simulator, kind of like outrun but without roads. The player just navigates around avoiding trees and maybe other obstacles.
I'm not sure if there's a forth executable, which is why I said 'at least 3'.
I already went through Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:DOS_games) and google images, but never found it (or maybe I missed it).
For nostalgia's sake I hope somebody can help me finding this.
