GoingToVenus

One of the best games ever. This created the entire gengre. You choose one of the 3 houses, get quests and fight it out on the dunes of arakus. The one knock is that is was done is DOS so it won't run on today's windows machines without a patch. You can get those on the internet.

This is a neat little puzzle game where you have 2 space dogs that are trying to get out of a lab. You move both dogs at the same time. So they move in unisen but there are obstacles in the way. this changes one of their paths. So you have to get both space dogs out of the lab at the same time. there are a ton of levels to play. Good family fun.

As they said, it does remind me of Pitfall and Indiana Jones. You are in a jungle and have to collect gems throughout the game. Using the pause menu, you swap these for torches to see under the ground and oxygen tanks for breathing under the water. I do like the 4 characters included (man and woman and 2 younger versions). It took me several hours to get to the end of the first stage so the game is huge. Lots of play time. For some reason there is no score to accomplish but I guess it's the journey/quests that you are playing for. This was a pleasant surprise and one of the better games of 2020.
