A look at 100 very obscure PC/MS-DOS games from the 90s; specifically, the games in this video were all released in 1990. If you played any of these, then hats off to you for being a PC superfan! Chunky VGA/CGA graphics, and Adlib sound OR PC speaker bloops and blips everywhere!

This video focuses mostly on "professional" games; mostly avoiding shareware/freeware/homebrew titles, in favor of titles that were sold boxed in stores.

Yes, a lot of these games are ports from the Amiga/Atari ST. If you are familiar with those platforms, then this video may not be very high on the "obscure" count for you.

There are a few licensed games on this list; while people are probably widely familiar with franchises such as Beetlejuice and Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, it's interesting to note that the PC versions of these games were actually quite different than their console versions - and if you have played any of those console versions, it is interesting to see the difference!

Enjoy!
