DOS Month Day 2: Duke Nukem

So here we are at a very early start on day two of DOS month. If you liked the first title(Commander Keen 4) you will love this one as well. A classic game that started a legendary franchise. Duke Nukem for the early windows and DOS modules was just plain fun and action packed! Released by Apogee(You should know who they are nowadays) this game was just as enjoyable as the later released Duke Nukem 3D masterpiece. Of course, you won't find babes trapped by aliens on this one but you will find coke cans that'll heal you! Not sure if the sugar rush makes you feel better but that's the idea behind this coke scheme. You can also eat a turkey for all your energy to replenish and you will need it as this platformer brings you to points where you have to just go through obstacles by taking hits, in some cases that's how you do things.



Overall, this game kicks ass, and it's highly recommended. The PC speaker sound makes it a delight and even though the majority of you will use DOS BOX to run this masterpiece, you will be missing out on the original PC speaker experience if you don't get one old PC but it's a small price to pay as long as you can get to enjoy the gameplay which is what matters most.


Here is some gameplay video.
