Technically Nethack is not a DOS game :)

Hmm. released in 1996. That would be in the windows 95 era. But, it seems that I need DOSBox to run it? From that I assume it's a DOS game, but I may be wrong

Actually it was released 9 years before that on 1987. Though I admit, one of the features in that first public release was MS-DOS support that was hacked on :)

Oh, your right, these DOS game titles be giving out false information! D:<

And, what do you mean by "MS-DOS support that was hacked on"? *Noob*

Nethack is a Un*x game. "MS-DOS support was hacked on" basically means they did a quick port of it to the MS-DOS platform, kind of like how Dark Souls is for whatever-the-fuck-console and is getting a halfassed PC port.

Omigosh stop what you are doing and play moonbreakers. It's too much fun. If it were dwarf fortress, we'd have all been eaten by zombie whales by now.

Picked up civ5 a few days ago. To be honest I expected it to be worse than it is. It does lack quite a few things compared to Alpha Centauri but it's not a bad game on it's own.
