[i]The story starts out with your three Vikings (Eric, Olaf, and Baleog) being kidnapped by the evil Tomator, who is collecting many different life forms to fill his collection with. You then have to combine the different skills and talents of all three vikings in order to defeat Tomator and make your way to safety. A massive game with 256-colour graphics, stunning animation, and set in the style of the old Duke Nukem games. Track down and destroy the monsters through the vast labyrinth-like levels, which become harder as you advance to the next level. Although The Lost Vikings is quite challenging, it still remains to be very addictive![/i]

You'll also need DOSBox to run MS-DOS games in Windows XP, but if you're new to emulation, DOS or computers... you may have some trouble getting DOSBox to run properly... alternatively, you can opt for one of the many console ports like the SNES or GBA versions. Currently, there are two major builds of DOSBox--the official build and the Daum Cafe build with extra features:

[Zerothis]***Partially influenced by H.P.Lovecraft's works.***Excellent game for the time. When I first saw the purple moving clouds in the skies of the game on the free demo I remember I rushed to the store to buy it!! I can remember I played night after night just to finish the game and had sleepy eyes on the office the day after. In the end of the game there was some kind of a monster on a small island which you could jump on to finish it off.. No doubt about it: In its genre, one of the best games ever.
