Descent + Descent 2

slord's rating:

250

slord says: Shareware and Descent are two words that should always be close to each other. This perhaps one of the most important shareware games of all time, and it was also generous by allowing many of the levels to be played through.

Alone in the Dark 1+2+3

slord's rating:

250

slord says: Mostly just the first game, but it was probably the best disk I had in my collection even though it only let me play through the first few scenes.

Magic Carpet™

slord's rating:

250

slord says: Bullfrog was releasing many awesome games at this time and all of them had great demo version on shareware disks, the only problem with them was that they were so hard on my computer i had to play those demos at 1 or 2 frames per second.

Raptor: Call of the Shadows 2010 Edition

slord's rating:

250

slord says: This one is so much fun, and maybe its just me but the shareware disk for this was very popular, I don't think i knew a single person who had the full version!

Wing Commander™ 1+2

slord's rating:

250

slord says: To be honest I never had the shareware for this, but i know it was out there. This is one of the few games that I actually owned the full version of, and let me tell you... its awesome.

Rise of the Triad: Dark War

slord's rating:

250

slord says: Even though my poor computer could barely run this one, it maintains a special place in my heart because they let you play through the entire first episode.

Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold

slord's rating:

250

slord says: This one is great, even though its sort a wolfenstien clone. The disk for it was fantastic also because it allowed the entire first episode up to the boss.

Red Baron Pack

slord's rating:

250

slord says: This and Jet fighter 2 are about equal for me but let me tell you, I miss the days when flight simulators fit on floppy disks.

Treat your GOGmix as your child - name it! ;)

Coming up with a cool and descriptive title should be your first priority. Being original is in your best interest - bet you wanna get lots of nice votes, right? Go all crazy if you want, but be sure to keep it civil!

So, what are the ingredients?

Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn\'t quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?

Justify your choice... Or not!

OK, so it's not required, but now that you went through the trouble of adding a game, telling everyone why you did it would be a nice finishing touch. After you\'re done here, add another game, rinse, repeat.
