Message: [QUOTE="JustLooking123, post: 10626, member: 1380"] i'm not sure if this helps at all or not, but thanks to Clippy's great lead, i found [URL='https://gist.github.com/gotbletu/4aa8064419d5757d2795df479edca3f7']This Gist Page[/URL] which contains list of all games in eXoDOS collection version 6.0 (latest version is 6.04 at time of writing this). But it's just name and date of them and nothing more... yet, it seems to be one of most complete lists of ibm games out there, at last biggest list that i could find anywhere. The original eXoDOS site, didn't give the list of its games, or at least I couldn't found it anywhere in their site. And here i have sorted them by date, I hope it helps even a bit. (Download is below in attachment) [automerge]1733688883[/automerge] Oh my god! I learned a new thing! during this search it dawned to me that IBM pc is basically x86 pc and its games are DOS games! Wow! now searching is much easier than before! I feel so silly for not knowing this earlier! ? [automerge]1733709325[/automerge] So I searched again, this time for DOS games... there's many sites which provide in-browser play of them thanks to JS port of DosBox... I searched many sites but with little success... [B]classicreload.com[/B] seems to be one of more complete of them, claiming to have more than 6000 games, and every single of them is playable in browser. So here's what i did: Searched for "fire", "burning" and "rescue" separately... but found nothing definitive... then inspiring from Clippy, I went into classicreload.com, sorted by date, and checked every single game from 1972 to 1985, anything which i felt might remotely connect, even those from other systems... and even played them a bit just to be sure, but again nothing which matches all mentioned criteria! :confused: The only game which involved burning building and rescuing animals was [B]Frantic Freddy[/B], but it's more of a platformer than puzzle, and there's no finding animals from under table, etc... So i don't think that's what you are looking for... Considering it was a dos game, it is possible that it was a homebrew game, or was sold only locally... Yet there's a hope that i missed something and/or another port of it exists in a different system. I could come only this far, wish you best! ? Edit: Fixed a few typo. Edit2: Added screenshot. Edit3: Also forgot to say that Frantic Freddy which i mentioned, wasn't even a DOS game either, it's for ColecoVision system, yet it was the only relevant thing that i found in that site. [/QUOTE]
