Thanks, Renegade! That's incredibly helpful.

Thanks for the reply, Danvzare!

I in fact started doing exactly what you suggested -- downloading them all and opening them up in DOSBox to see whether or not the game is DOS or Windows. Trouble is, it appeared as if some games may originally have been released for DOS and then later replaced by subsequent Windows versions. So hard to tell exactly.

The reason I'm interested is because last fall I started doing a "DOS Adventure Quest" on Twitch, in which I'm playing and streaming all adventure games to have ever been released for DOS (the list I've compiled is just shy of 800). I've been relying on MobyGames as my source of truth for what was released on DOS vs. what wasn't, but it struck me that it may not be entirely accurate for the RotN series. Was hoping to get some clarification on that here, but if the info isn't available, I suppose I'll just rely on MobyGames' current info + any additional DOS releases I find via the game downloads.

Thanks again!

Wondering if anyone has a breakdown list of which Reality-on-the-Norm games were released for DOS vs. Windows? I know the FAQ indicates that the early releases (2001-02) were on DOS, but is there any more detailed information available on this?

MobyGames seems to indicate that some were on DOS, some on Windows, and some both, but not sure how accurate that really is.

I'm ultimately trying to figure out which games in the series ever received a DOS release.

Thanks in advance!
