What's new?

+ Move to new server

We are proud to announce that DOS Games Archive and the
hosted sites are moved to our new server.

The advantage of the move to the seperate server is better
performance; the sites are faster than ever, so you can
download faster! And we have lots of space now to store
new games.

Good news! We have added 19 games. Here they are:

5X
Bio Menace
EGAroids
Executioners
Grid Poker
Jill of the Jungle
Kingdom of Kroz II
L5RC
Loader Larry
Mario Bros VGA
Pizza Worm
Satori
Sleuth
Splaymaster
Star Castle PC
The Pack Rat
Triplane Turmoil
Velcro Mind
Weenie Golf

Please go to http://www.dosgamesarchive.com/games-t.html if
you are interested in downloading these games.

We will add a lot of more games the next few weeks. We are
going to send a newsletter when they are uploaded.
