AdamvsMaximvs: As per the title I'm looking for some suggestions for some old gems I may have missed out on back in the 'heyday' of later dos to earlier windows titles. Mostly adventure/rpg games, but enjoy the odd simulation or strategy game too.
Some of my favorite from that era are;
- Quest for glory (and to a lesser extent the other Sierra adventures)
- Gabriel Knight
- Dark Sun series
- Baldur's Gate I&II
- Planescape Torment
- X-Wing vs Tie-fighter
- Fallout 1,2
- XCOM series
- Civilization I-III
I've taken a stab at the Ultima series, but the early entries are a little too dated for me, but alreday have the later entries which I'll try.
From the list above is there any suggestions for stuff from the 'good old games' days that I've missed out on. I already have the Krondor games, Icewind dale, Neverwinter and Demon stone, but would appreciate any gems I might be unaware of.
Not a fan of the Lucasarts adventures? My favorite is probably Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis. Or maybe Day of the Tentacle... well, I don't like picking favorites. Some of my favorite from that era are;

edit: ok, here's one that isn't mentioned before (I think):

Not an easy game, but I finished it, probably in '95.
