Dear Abandonia visitors: Help us keep Abandonia free with a small donation. Abandonia is like an old gaming arcade with only original games. Abandonia helps you have fun four hours and years. If Abandonia is useful to you, please help us forget fundraising and get back to Abandonia.
Remember that Deeds of Yore is going to continue on 1 July? Well, if you didn't, then we'll make it sure you do, because now we start a countdown until the show returns.
In the meantime, why don't you occupy yourself and read the creator's blog?
We're curious to see what David's story is coming down to as well, but we're also sure it's worth waiting!
Three weeks left until Deeds of Yore returns... it seems we have nothing to do but wait until then...
Those who like to draw things, or more specifically, pixel art, might want to enter a contest announced by the Deeds of Yore TM. You can find more information by following the previous link, and the winner will receive the gifts listed below:
Good luck for the participants, and have fun drawing!
First in line is a game that has been gathering dust for quite a while on Abandonia's shelves: Secrets of the Pyramids... A bit hard to get running if you're new, but worth the trouble if you're into educational games or seek to study the history of edutainment. It also has the big plus of exploring the fascinating Egyptian civilization.
There's decent music and illustrations to be found here. I'd give it a go just for the hell of it if I were you. Many thanks to Ozzie for the archive and the review.
Help Abandonia preserve the gaming artifacts of the old. We accept anything related to abandoned games: archives, reviews, screens, manuals, box scans etc. Contribute and we may still find who Keyser Soze really is.
First up are some box scans for Claw, in which you take the role of feline swashbuckling pirate captain Claw, Surveyor of the Seven Seas, Conqueror of Platforms. The review also says you can organise 64-player multiplayer deathmatches. Now there's an idea! Thanks Chris for the treasure chest.
We got ourselves more tropheys by defeating Baron Czarny and freeing Poland in Twilight 2000, a title based on the pen and paper RPG with the same name. Specifically, there is now a map of after-WWIII Poland awaiting to be explored, scanned by eclipsesplice, and a set of boxshots from Ermuli.
But wait, there's more! Game wizard Ermuli has also provided the manual and boxshots for Need for Speed. You should witness the incredible speed and luxurious cars that gave birth to EA's star franchise. Finally, the same member promises a game of interstellar exploration, diplomacy, strategy and conquest, with a set of Ascendancy extras including the manual, technical leaflets and a lot of boxshots. Once again, thanks to all the contributors. We can't do it without you.
Today's addition, Harley-Davidson: The Road to Sturgis is indeed a game with a unique premise. Besides riding your Harley, you can do various jobs and customize your motorcycle. Certainly something to check out for the curious fans. Special thanks to TheChosen for reviewing and supplying the game.
On a more serious note Wereboar proves that he has already conquered the universe and all its alien civilizations in Stars!, using some planet-shattering box scans. Some more box shots from Ermuli claim that the Shadow Man is coming, trailing evil from the Liveside to Deadside and trying to prevent the Apocalypse, in an original way, of course.
And finally, thanks to ibmpc5160 who uploaded a set of scans and the disk image Jill of the Jungle saves some more princes.
