| Title: | Absorb | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Digital Chaos
| Year: | 2003 | | |||
| Description: | Black and white (monochrome) collector game where you control a beam and with it collect designated objects inside a specific level. The gameplay is ok and somewhat addictive, but the game is very short and the graphics are rather subpar. Objects in the levels are randomized every time you play a new game so the replay value is not that bad. Also, the package includes a level editor. Overall, not enough content for a higher score. | | |||

| Title: | Ahib el Mushman - The Oil Adventure | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Pc72 | Year: | 2002 | | |||
| Description: | A nice hi-res (640*350) game featuring oil collecting. The game objective is to collect all the oil inside a specific level. There is a lot of bonus items you can pick up and an enemy you need to avoid. You can kill that enemy and destroy certain obstacles with a pickaxe you carry. The graphics are in hi-res mode and very nicely done, especially the animations of the characters. On the other hand, levels don't feature any background, only tiles, oil, bonus items and characters. The biggest problem of The Oil Adventure is the gameplay. It's highly doubtful since each level is randomized every time you play it. This includes the number of oil drops you need to pick up, time limit and obstacles, so sometimes it’s simply impossible to finish a certain level. Also, when you finish a level you need to exit it through a door that only appears for a second. You need to be very careful (and lucky) in that moment so you wouldn’t miss the exit location. Not sure if this is a bug. The package includes a level editor. | | |||

| Title: | AhiBombers ver.1.0b | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Pc72 | Year: | 2005 | | |||
| Description: | A Bomberman clone with ok gameplay, but poorly coded. The movement is jerky because the designer used the INKEY$ statement and some clunky bomb to player collision is present. Potential game, but needed a lot more polish. Levels are randomized, but you can create your own. Ok graphics, but very little of it. | | |||

| Title: | AIIB Beta ver.9 | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | RabidMoth | Year: | 1999 | | |||
| Description: | A demo of a very cool top down space shooter. It's one of the most impressive looking games in QBasic featuring a really cool smart-zooming effect. This demo features only 10 missions and the gameplay feels too fast-paced for my taste. Perhaps the game is meant to be played on slower speed. This demo doesn't feature any music or sound effects. The package includes a mission editor. Recommended for collectors. | | |||

| Title: | Air Attack | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Solid Rock Software | Year: | 1997 | | |||
| Description: | A cool 3D aircraft shooter game. The 3D engine is relatively simple and "hacked" in few places, but the very game is quite enjoyable to play. You fly around (using your mouse) over a flat terrain (with few pyramids scattered around) and hunt down other aircrafts. You have two weapons at your disposal, and the game features a nice auto-tracking system. Not much varied content in the game, and no sound or music. | | |||

An option for two human players simultaneous mode is available. Weak graphics and subpar coding prevails. You might need a slowdown utility to play this game. | | |||

| Description: | A solid Arkanoid clone featuring average graphics and somewhat clunky ball-to-paddle physics. The game features ok Sound Blaster sound effects. The gameplay is good, but the game is very easy since powerups are spawn quite often and most of them are very beneficial. 20 levels. Below average level design (with the exception of 2 or 3 levels). A level editor is included in the package. | | |||

| Description: | An interesting sea war game in vector graphics. The player's objective is to defend his ship from the invading enemy aircrafts. This game features a quite cool vector graphics 3D engine. The player can rotate his ship, but it's some sort of 3D/2D hybrid game. Sadly, the game is in Spanish so if you don't know it you won't be able (like me) to figure out the entire game mechanics. | | |||

| Description: | An excellent QBasic FPS, but it's more a 3D engine than a game. The 3D engine is excellent and the game is fun to play, but it runs in a circle (it takes around 1 hour to finish it) and leaves you disappointed. The wall textures and the enemy sprites in the game are not original. | | |||

You control a dragon (you can pick one of the two available) in single screen levels and bump from one side of the screen to the other while avoiding the bad pills and picking up the good pills. While some aspects of the game are excellent (like the dragon sprites), some are not (like the gameplay and the incoherent quality of the graphics), so I can't give the game a higher score. Still, this is a very interesting and unique QBasic game. Blubber Dragon features Sound Blaster sound effects and music. | | |||

Pure DOS mode or DOSBox is recommended for running this game since the designer picked a poor bomb key for the second player, which is screwed up in Windows (ALT+Q). | | |||

| Title: | Contact | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Wallace Software | Year: | 2004 | | |||
| Description: | If we ignore the fact that Contact is a QBasic FPS, this is a rather mediocre game. The designer invested a lot of effort in the story and the huge amount of cinematics, while the level textures are poor and lack diversity. The level design is also poor, and since all halls look the same, the player can get lost easily. Contact also features a lot of sloppiness. The game needs to be unpacked in a specific directory, if the player dies the game completely ends (back to OS), there are no proper credits displayed inside the game, voice acting is terrible, and there are bugs in the 3D engine. A game with many elements that contradict in quality. | | |||

You control a space ship and need to avoid obstacles which advance one by one. Interesting only because of the graphics and the sound. | | |||

| Description: | An action/management game in space. It combines Elite, Asteroids and Lander. No fancy graphics, but it's nicely done. The game is missing few features like other space ships but yours. Also, the game could use loops that prevent double clicking. Sometimes you may initiate landing on the planet from which you just took off, because the same key is used for taking off and landing. Cyberion is mostly consisted of destroying asteroids and trading stocks. The game features 4 Sound Blaster sound effects. | | |||

| Description: | An excellent helicopter arcade game. The gameplay is level-based, and the goal in each level is to pickup 5 boxes scattered around the map (plus hostages for bonus). The graphics and the engine are excellent, while the sound effects are very good. The gameplay is somewhat repetitive and not varied enough (no weapons!). Pity, since the graphics and the engine could have been exploited much better. | | |||

| Description: | One of the worst games in the directory. Cynet is a horrible "shooter". You control some cyborg which can move only vertically. The enemies invade toward you in a straight horizontal line while you need to shoot them down. Terrible and silly graphics, poor controls, poor code and horrible gameplay. The game runs too fast on modern PCs, but if you use a slowdown utility the game is jerky and annoyingly slow in some places (like the death animations). Nice title screen and main menu. | | |||

The game is made in EGA mode, but the graphics and animation during sex scenes are brilliant. Unfortunately, the quality of this game is very uneven. The sex parts are executed great while the car driving and walking part are lame. This is also a quite sick game featuring images of perversion and shitting (you’ll see more than you want).

The designer did put some effort to create an interesting gameplay by adding powerups and obstacles in the levels. Also, the graphics are nice. How much the gameplay works, I can't tell. The robots can move only in horizontal or vertical direction and the movement is tile by tile based, which doesn't leave much space for using tactics. Not really an exciting game.

| Title: | Mayhem | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Alex Smith | Year: | 1998 | | |||
| Description: | Multiplayer (without single player mode) space ship shooting game. You fight against one to three opponent ships with a goal to destroy them and accumulate more kills. The graphics are rather simple and the game physic/controls are not so good. I don't know how much this game is fun to play since I was not able to play it with another person. | | |||

There is only one type of human enemies. The graphics are poorly designed. Very poor level design. The game does feature some cool things, like the player's ability to strafe. | | |||

The graphics are very nice, but not excellent. What is great are wonderful gore effects (blood and guts everywhere) and amusing Sound Blaster sound effects. After each level you can buy new weapons, grenades or threshers, which help you protect the bananas. Absolutely excellent gameplay.

The graphics, despite being monochrome, are excellent and the code is brilliant. This game is legendary in the QBasic circles as well as its tragically deceased designer. The problem with Mono Space it that it's too short, lacks proper design like menus and presentation, but because of its cult status deserves to be remembered and played. | | |||

The game is quite challenging, but not discouraging. The graphics are quite simple, but since the game is so well designed you won't miss anything. With each new game starting position and all the landing positions are randomized, so each new game is a new challenge. | | |||

| Description: | An ok pacman clone featuring big levels and scrolling, but not full screen. Tile by tile movement and scrolling. In Pac-Clone 2 the player is being chased by one ghost through the level. What is interesting is that the player can monitor his progress (where is he and the ghost and where are the blobs he needs to eat up) on a mini-map. The graphics are ok, but I really disliked the fact that the designer used some graphics and fonts which are not his and did not credit them. The game contains only 3 levels, each with a different tileset. Pac-Clone 2 is very nicely designed with nice menus and fadein/fadeout effects. Excellent game for relaxing. | | |||

| Description: | Sequel to PONG: Battle Royal featuring better graphics, tournament mode, ship (paddle) modification (ability to modify/buy new weapons, shields and engines), better options (option of choosing points to win and kills to win) and slightly better gameplay. Still, the gameplay is not that good. Enemy AI is almost perfect so the only way to beat the opponent is to hope for the flaw/bug in the AI to happen (I’ve noticed it and it happens really rarely) or to kill the opponent which takes a lot of time and is annoying and frustrating. Killing the first opponent was a drag. I can’t image the next opponents. Having in mind the improvements and some nice graphic effects I'm giving Pong II this generous score, but don't forget the doubtful gameplay. You have been warned. The game doesn't feature any Sound Blaster sound effects or music. | | |||

| Description: | An excellent action game based on the "lander" concept. In this game you need to take off with your probe and land on any red area inside the level. Each red landing area brings a certain amount of points. Ones that give you higher number of points are usually on more tricky places, difficult to reach. The gameplay is very good, although in the beginning the game physics feel jerky. The graphics are nice while the graphical design is excellent and looks very advance for those years in the QBasic game design scene.

While the 3D engine that the game uses is great (I'm not familiar with the method, but it's similar if not the same to the one used in Comanche series), this is a rather poor game. All you need to do in Q-MANCHE is to hunt down the three persons on the map and kill them. They are nothing but slug looking lines. While this is a painfully easy game, it's also terribly short. The game offers nothing more. Nevertheless, the 3D engine is something really worth being checked. Thus the score 5. | | |||

| Description: | A weird pong game featuring multiple characters, weapons and spells. It also features a nice and funny story intro. Sadly, the gameplay is not so good. The movement of paddles is annoyingly slow and jerky and beating an opponent a drag. Arena design is also something doubtful. Tournament (computer opponent) and two players duel modes are featured. | | |||

The player's goal in each level is to get the crystal inside it and then exit from it. 10 levels, cute ending cinematic and nice controls. A well coded game. | | |||

| Title: | Robot Rumble Demo | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Quantum | Year: | 2003 | | |||
| Description: | A robot battle game. While the graphics and the overall design is very nice, the gameplay is very poor. Robots can only move in vertical or horizontal direction. The battle is based on ramming into the enemy and kicking him with your weapon. With computer opponents all that the player needs to do is to lure them in the pit which is very easy. The game also features Sound Blaster sound effects and music. This game only looks good while it really isn't good. This version of Robot Rumble seems like a finished game so I don’t know why the designer calls it a demo. Still, I’ll respect his decision. | | |||

The player needs to break the eggs in the playfield by connecting 3 or more of the same color. The player does that by launching eggs one by one at the ones already present in the playfield. Very good graphics and ok Sound Blaster sound effect. The game supports two players duel mode. The gameplay is not level-based (you play it for the score). | | |||

The player controls a small rectangle in a single-screen playfield, and the goal is to slowdown this rectangle before the level time runs out. The graphics are rather limited and there is no sound or music. Also, the gameplay doesn't hold well in later levels (the challenge declines). The rectangle object is more accelerated, but in the same time the player receives way more time than enough to slow it down. | | |||

The game is completely unplayable since it's for two players only, and the players supposed to fight with INKEY$ based keyboard controls. What make this game different from similar ones in QBasic are its highly polished style, decent amount of moves (left, right, jump, 4 attacks) and a lot of fighting games related content.

| Title: | Terror, The | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Stars Dev | Year: | 2002 | | |||
| Description: | An average vertical scrolling shooter with 9 levels, bosses and progressive story. The graphics are not quite good showing the lack of style and polish. The game also doesn't feature any music or sound effects. Still, the game is quite addictive and you will probably play it until you finish it because of the smart progress auto-save feature and good gameplay. | | |||

| Title: | Tetris 2 - The New Blood | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Christian Dever | Year: | 1998 | | |||
| Description: | A very amusing Teris clone bringing a new features in the gameplay - killing. While having to fill horizontal lines with blocks, the player can also kill the walking stooges that fall in the game field by slamming the falling pieces on them. Their movement is very nicely coded and amusing (like when they stuck in a hole made of your pieces). The blood effects are also cool with blood being spilled of the playfield and accumulating on the bottom of the screen. If the blood reaches the playfield, the player gets a blood bonus. Sadly, the game doesn't feature any sound effects or music and it doesn't seem to speed up with time. Pity. Makes the game very easy and difficult to lose. | | |||

| Title: | ThunderBugs 2* | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Mattsson | Year: | 1998 | | |||
| Description: | A weird multiplayer space ship action game. You can only play it against human opponents. Up to 4 players per battle. Poor choice of control keys. The game does feature some cool options, like space ship equipping, but the gameplay isn't much fun. Below average graphics and very little of it. If you have someone to play it with, it might be worth checking. A note: this is the only game in the database for which I'm not sure if it's a QBasic game. | | |||

| Title: | Toadman | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Delta Code | Year: | 2000 | | |||
| Description: | A two players only game. You control a toad and your goal is to kill the opponent toad. You can choose to play in several levels (mazes). Tile by tile movement. The main problem with the game is that it's not compiled while it runs too fast on modern PCs. Also, the very game documentation is inside the source code. | | |||

| Title: | Toadman 2 | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Delta Code | Year: | 2000 | | |||
| Description: | Sequel to Toadman 2. It features slightly better graphics, a computer controlled opponent and many more features, like being able to use more weapons, traps and such. Still, it has all the flaws of the first part in not being user-friendly. Runs too fast on modern PCs and you need to change some variable in the code to choose between playing against a human or a computer opponent. Very poor AI. | | |||

| Description: | A Tron clone. Snakes duel game like Worm Wars. Tracer features both human and computer opponent and very nice graphical design (especially the menus). Still, the AI is very poor, the in-game graphics boring and there are no any extra features in the game (pickups) like in Worm Wars. | | |||

| Description: | A fun duel game where you and your opponent jump on trampolines and shoot on each other. Very simple but addictive gameplay. This version features a tournament mode (computer controlled opponent) with progressive opponents and different backgrounds, as well as two players duel mode. The game lacks more content and polish for a higher score. The extra download is Trampoline Gunmen Quadro, which features the same concept and graphics, but with up to four human players per battle (team cooperative battles; no AI). Below average graphics (very simple). | | |||

| Description: | A special edition of Trampoline Gunmen where you can play various minigames (8 total). Some are quite fun and addictive. The graphics and technical perfection of the game is the same (below average). Like with Turbo Deux, excellent concept, but poorly exploited. Every minigame has a high score, but the default scores are 0. | | |||

| Description: | An excellent Tron clone. Snakes duel game. It features huge amount of options, up to 4 players per game (human or computer), special pickups (weapons) and more. Average hi-res (640*480) graphics and poor PC Speaker sound effects. By my opinion, this is the best QBasic Tron game. | | |||

| Title: | Tron Clon | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Mundo Fuentes | Year: | 2005 | | |||
| Description: | Like the title says, this game is a Tron clone or, if you are not familiar with Tron, a Snakes game. It offers two players and single player mode. The graphics and the design is very poor and the gameplay shallow (no extra features). Single player mode is fun to some extent, but the lack of slightly more vibrant graphics and a high scores table are big flaws. | | |||

| Title: | Troopers ver.1.0 | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Aspect Productions | Year: | 2002 | | |||
| Description: | Troopers is a war game where you control a group of soldiers and execute various missions. In this game it’s only “kill all the enemies”. A mouse controlled game. The gameplay is a complete rip-off of Cannon Fodder and the graphic style is the same as in the mentioned game. That wasn't enough for Aspect Productions to credit the authors of Cannon Fodder. Big minus! This version only features 3 stages which is silly. Nice Sound Blaster sound effects. Due the lack of content and missing options this game won't provide you hours of fun. It's just something worth being checked due the excellent graphics. More a demo than a game. | | |||

| Title: | Tunnel Striker ver.1.5 | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | INT Software | Year: | 1998 | | |||
| Description: | An average 3D vector graphics shooting game. You could call it a target practice game. The game is mouse controlled and the goal in each level is to destroy a certain number of targets with limited ammo. There are also the obstacles the player needs to avoid. The levels look pretty much the same and the graphics are rather simple, but the great in-game music track adds a lot to the play experience. I simply love that track! The gameplay is challenging and quite addictive but repetetive. Flashy menus. Sound Blaster music and sound effects. | | |||

You can shoot stuff on them. Poor graphics, poor code, poor Tyler to donut collision, no challenge value, you name it. Avoid. | | |||

The game is played for the score. The default score is not very difficult to beat. The game is on German, but you don't need to know German to play the game. | | |||

| Description: | A fun shoot-em-up game. You fight against human or computer opponents in one of 50 single screen arenas by shooting projectiles at them. You can choose one of the 12 characters featuring different weapons and speeds. Very nice graphics and cool gore effects. Unofficial Tournament also supports null-modem cable connection for the second human opponent. Ultimate duel game of this kind. What it really lacks is some sort of story or tournament mode. You can play it only round by round. There is no progress of any sort. No sound effects or music. | | |||

| Title: | Vector X | Genre: | Action | | Developer: | Dan McFadyen | Year: | 2001 | | |||
| Description: | An average 3D shooter. The graphics are wirefame and the 3D engine is very good. For example, you can destroy the ground (it shifts!). The game is mouse controlled. Controlling the space craft is quite easy and the movement is fluid. There are 4 levels and they are a bit repetitive, though not long. The presentation is also poor. Still, the game is challenging and the 3D engine is worth being checked. You might have problems with this game running too fast on modern PCs. I didn't on mine, but I didn't notice any delay routine in the code. | | |||

Worms die if they hit the wall or any piece of trace. Despite few interesting features in the gameplay, the poor graphics, poor choice of control keys and lack of the computer opponent make this game very unappealing. | | |||

The game features minimal Sound Blaster sound effects and several level sets to play. The package also includes a level editor. The game is on German, but you can manage without knowing German. | | |||
