I still have some old applications (Deluxe Pain(t) 2+4, Borland Pascal etc) but those are still shelved at my parent's house.
On my Amiga I rely on Workbench 3.1 and Directory Opus 5 almost every time I boot up the machine.

As for Windows - I use the classic mode too :)

Hehe, as I mentioned earlier, my English was way out of the Infocom/Legend league back then. That might be the reason why I was so dedicated to LEC and Sierra.

Anyway, after this high class title, let me lower the bar a bit :)

Frederik Pohl's Gateway it is!

Those Legend games are so tricky to guess


@Gribbler See, I'm as clueless as you when it comes to Legend Games :D

Yay, I just got the reservation confirmation for the Reichstag Dome: Tuesday 6th August 14:30.

@Snarky and Mods
Yep, there's an express bus to TXL from Berlin Alexanderplatz with a 10 minutes cycle. So it's more or less like in Dublin.
SXF is connected via train from Berlin Mainstation with a 30 min cycle.

Now you're right - it's Eric the unready. Unfortunately I haven't finished it back then due to the lack of my english skills, so I had to rely on MobyGames about the Wizard.

Anyway - Gribbler's next

Nope. But maybe the GUI rings a bell.
The press loved this game, but at the time my English was even worse than today so with all that text it was too hard for me.

Nope - no Spellcasting. But you're looking in the right corner.

Could I've possibly found a hard to guess game?  8-)

Hehe, ZZT was bundled on a shareware disk with Jill of the Jungle.
Who had thought that those guys create Unreal Tournament later on :)

PS: Hey Mr. Dekker :D Long time no see!
