Is it just me or are Chip's Challenge and Jezzball two of the greatest games ever invented?
After all these years, they are still fun to play.

I bought a disc that had about 8 games on it. Chip's Challenge and Jezzball are my favorite two. Rodent's Revenge is fun too. There is also a game with Pipes (Maybe Leak Out?), Ski Free, Blackjack Helper, and more. You may be able to find it used at Amazon. I was surprised that it only takes one little hard disc to install them all. Unfortunately, my newer computer has no disc drive. 🙁

Originally posted by forkedknightI don't use Wine. Call me paranoid or an idiot, but with Wine it's no problem to catch all the viruses for Windows. But I found something. There is a game called Tile World. It's basically the same, just the graphics and sound are changed, so there wouldn't be any copyright problems. The .dat file from original game can be found online (probably) and you can play the same levels. It looks pretty much alike. Now I have a perfect tool for time wasting.
