Guess that game, now with filenames!

[bokkers]

You thought this would be a joke, but it isn't. I'd propose the same rules as with the other two guess-that-games.

OK, here's an easy one: Turrican.exe ;D
Just kidding, OK, here's my file:

Jihad1.dat

What game was that? Hint: It's from the 80s and it had a nasty copy-protection ;D

[smartguy240]

Doom?

[bokkers]

Doom?

Nope. It's from the 80s but Doom had a very decent copy protection. The game the file is from lets you enter words from the manual. And it's a strategy game.

I know the game, but I can't think of it... is it Civilization?

[sonneveld]

Doom didn't have any copy protection as far as I know.. is that what you mean by "decent" ?

In some countrys, DOOM required some sort of activation key to work.

Exactly! ;D

Civilization was already veeery close, Mr. T.

Uncharted water?

Uncharted water?

Nope. OK, here's yet another hint: The name of file directly refers to the subject and the title of the game. Any SSI-lovers out there?

[Kon-Tiki]

Al-Qaedim: The Genie's Curse. (Although it's more rpg than strategy, it's worth the guess ;D )

-Kon-Tiki-

[bokkers]

Al-Qaedim: The Genie's Curse.

Nope.

[HwM]

Conflict: Middle East..?

Not sure if it's from the 80's though..........

[smartguy240]

What does it start with? Maybe that will help...obviously noone know it ....

[bokkers]

Ta-taa...

HWM is right, it was Conflict: Middle-East.
Congratulations.

Grrr... I knew it would be one of those weird SSI games! :'(
