Connector (game review)
Game: Connector
Developer: Robert Brown
Publisher: Robert Brown
Year: 1998
Genre: Strategy
Players: single hot-seat or vs computer
REVIEW :
I played v.0.1. Connector is a Connect 4 recreation. You put pieces in a line on either direction to
block the other player and win.
This game doesn't have sounds, but doesen't need to.
And if you enjoy this perfect game, i recomend going to the developer
site. There you can find more game and Kingpin mods.

d:
cd connect
Connect4
Controls :
Left and right d-pad to move
Space bar as X on d-pad to drop connect pieces

Block-Man 1 (game review)
Game: Block-Man 1
Developer: Doug and Larry Murk from Soleau Software
Publisher: Soleau Software
Year: 1993
Genre: Platform
Players: single
I played v. 1.0, shareware.
The graphics are simple, like in Mario, but effective.
The player must put different blocks and climb them
to reach the exist, but is not that simple. Enable pc speaker in DosBox turbo.
If you don't use ,,auto,, on cycles, the player will move slow, the backround
flames quicker. Change to keyboard to use different
commands, like instructions etc. Esc command exits
to dos and cd d command put me in the last level again, but
anything you write do this. Just exit DosBox turbo with its exit button.
DosBox turbo config :
mount d: /storage/sdcard1/dos/
d:
cd bman
bman1
Controls :
Use the d-pad.
Left, right to move
Down to pick up and put down
Up to climb up
Cycles :
auto
3D Xmas Adventure: Santa's Rescue (game review)
Game: 3D Xmas Adventure: Santa's Rescue
Developer: pie in the sky software
Publisher: pie in the sky software
Year: 1996
Genre: FPS
Players: single
You must rescue Santa.
Make sure you have the files data in your data folder.
The game graphics resemble Wolfenstein, but differ.
White bears on two feat trow something
at you in game and you don't know first if they hit you
or not. Fire at something seems that you fire twice. Is hard to know the controls if you don't try them
or read about them. The developer helps you with info about
the editor by accesing the same .exe you start and play your game with,
santa3d.bat. The editor is not free.
DosBox turbo config :
mount d: /storage/sdcard1/dos/
d:
cd Santa3d
--------
Controls :
Use the d-pad to move.
With the command space bar used by your d-pad
you can say Merry Christmass or only fire weapon when you
get it first.
Enter to grab something, your weapon or items
Cycles :
6000

Dreamweb games issue
In Dreamweb, you can make a autoexec.bat file and write in your Irq, adress etc. Just make a text and rename it as a .bat file. If not, the game may complain about not find the corect Irq.
When you enter DosBox manager, uncheck ,,Manual mode,, and click ,,Autoexec,,.
There, write this :
mount d: /storage/sdcard1/dos/
d:
cd dreamweb
autoexec.bat
