So I've been trying for years to get an F1 2014 on my PC for the modding capacity, I've attempted it 4 or 5 times. Every time it says it needs a steam key and even if I have them it just doesn't work. Is there an actual F1 2014 that works off the bat.

Hello - I am looking for Smugglers 1 (from the Smugglers series from Niels Bauer). The dev‘s website is down and it doesn’t seem to be for sale anymore. Does anyone know where a copy could still be obtained?

edit: I meant Smugglers 1!

Lost Android games and apps of different kind of stuff.

There are a lot of games or apps do I wonder if there are links to download or maybe direct downloads.

For some reason it never downloads the data folder. I tried using alternate links and setting up a windows xp vm but it still doesn't work

I am finally done with my full browser port of Midtown Madness 2. What started 4 months ago as a project, today is a full 1:(almost)1 port of the game directly in your web browser. Done with a lot of help from Claude Code, I present to you:

1. Full maps from San Francisco and London, as well as Chicago from Midtown Madness 1
2. All Crash Course missions
3. All races - Blitz, Checkpoint and Circuit
4. True pedestrians with their jump/hug wall animation
5. True cop logic to chase you around
6. All voice lines from all announcers per city including Chicago
7. Weather and time of day changes
8. Original UI and loading screens
9. Original game progression, saves (in your local storage) and unlockables

This is not emulation, it's the whole game recoded in Three.js to run in the browser. Meaning all logic is redone as much as possible to look/work like the original. There will be some bugs for sure, mostly with physics, but hey - MM2 in your browser!

To run the game you need the original midtown2.exe as proof you own the game, it checks the hash to verify before launching the game. As long as you have a backup of the game archived locally or online, grab that file and it'll work. Added this to limit the copyright issues this might face, although it's not being charged for 25 years after it's release.

Try the game here and feel free to report any bugs you find: https://gorjan.rocks/clients/midtown-madness

I was on vacation until recently and was looking through my old childhood discs when I found "Minis", an educational PC game with horses as playable characters. I remember loving it for its simple gameplay that's basically your average platformer with occasional simple questions you had to answer. Unfortunately, it seems like the game is nowadays available only through resellers.

Luckily, I managed to dump it to .iso file and post it on archive.org on this link (https://archive.org/details/minis_pcgame). If you want, take your time, play it and let me know what you think. (Note: the game is only available on Croatian, Serbian and Macedonian, so you should use a translator to understand everything)

Hello everyone!

I wanted to share a major preservation update for all classic PC puzzle fans. I have recently archived 12 rare, full registered versions of Windows puzzle and logic games developed by William Soleau (Soleau Software) from 1995 to 2012!

These registered versions are virtually impossible to find online nowadays. I managed to track down valid serial numbers from old registration databases, personally installed and unlocked every single game, and then repacked them into convenient modern .exe installers using Inno Setup.

Every game has been uploaded individually with screenshots and proper metadata. Here is the full list of what has been rescued:

* Oracle Of Runes v2.0 (1996)

* Juxto v2.0 (1997)

* Axium Adventures v2.0 (1997)

* Crate Man v2.0 (1997)

* Akeyan Enigma v2.0 (1998)

* Node Jumper v2.02 (2000)

* Jungle Jean v1.03 (2001)

* Freddy's Forest v1.03 (2001)

* Duffer Dave v1.0 (2002)

* Hard Hat v1.1 (2003)

* Hard Hat 2 v1.0 (2012)

* Ronnie's Resort v3.0 (1995)

You can find and download them directly on my archive.org uploads page here:

Huge thanks to William Soleau for creating these masterpieces. I hope this helps anyone looking to complete their retro gaming library or revisit these amazing nostalgic puzzle gems.

Heyo,

I hoard/archive LEGO Universe game clients for preservation and want to see if anyone has clients on old computers that may not be archived yet.

All of the ones that I do have are available on archive.org and I've scoured the internet and my own drives from that time and found pieces of some, but in general archive.org has them all that are known.

Older beta/alpha clients are more desirable, but filling in the gaps of the release client would be great as well.

I can provide a list of clients I do have and specifics about them if wanted.

Thanks and feel free to comment or reach out to me in DMs

edit: here's the list of client that have been archived (dates are based on the exe PE headers)

0.185.20 (2010/06/12) - full client

Was just playing the demo since my full version was part of the gamepass but has since been removed

As the title says. I've tried so many things and this does not wanna play whatsoever. I downloaded from Abandonware, opened and mounted the .iso, opened the files and ran Setup.exe, but it sits 99% and then after around 2 minutes, it crashes and closes.

I also tried opening the data1.cab file and opening sb2.exe there, and it sits for about 3 seconds on a black screen and then crashes. I even stuck the DGVoodoo files in it, still didn't work. I have the disc owned, but no disc tray for it in my PC. I'm kind of at my wits end here 😭

I'm running on Windows 11, by the way. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I used to love playing this and the Movie point-and-click a lot. Would love getting both of those to work. I heard using a VM is the way to go, but I never touched those before.

Howdy, I'm new here so i'll cut right to the chase. I've been trying to find an exact version of the game, v3.1.0 for PC. Specifically it's installer. (Angry Birds Original/Classic v3.1.0 that is.) I'm not going into the specifics of why I need that exact version, but if you do have it, please let me know!

Hi. I am searching for a place to get High School Musical 3: Senior Year Dance or a guide (?) on how I could get it to work. I have the original DVD of the PL release but currently own no dvd drive (but can get my hands on one if needed - still, would rather play without the dvd).

So far I have checked a few places, including the three sites recommended by this subreddit. Archive only has clean steam files and I'm not quite sure what to do with them. Other places have links that are long lost.

I imagine that since I have the disc there's still a way for me to preserve it myself, but I'm really clueless when it comes to stuff like this (and I would appriciate a way to get it "with one click").

So I downloaded F1 2014 from RohanKar's repacks list. (https://archive.org/details/f1-2014-repack) However, I don't know if I installed it wrong, but it doesn't work, even with the cracked exe and a cleared antivirus. What might I be doing wrong?

Trying to install Forza horizon 1 on pc, Xenia canary. The game opens the main menu, starts the presentation video and then, black screen. Does anyone know what it is and perhaps how to silve it ?

So, I just downloaded and prepped SimCity Classic on my Windows 11 PC. I am using DosBox Game Launcher, and have set up the initial installation. But when I try to run that game, I arrive at a window on my screen. It's asking me what "video display mode" I want to use. Here are the choices I see...

EGA Mono 640x350

EGA 16 Color 640x350

VGA/MCGA Mono 640x480

VGA/MCGA 256 Color 320x200

VGA 16 Color 640x480

...but when I click on one of the options (I have tried them all), I get a message saying, "System Error in 'cd' No such file or directory"

I have tried other games on DBGL as well as games that run directly on my PC, and they all run fine. I have not had any issues with them. Can someone please help me with this situation? Thanks in advance!!

totally new to this and am just a bit lost. I downloaded DOSBox per the how to page on myabandonware and downloaded the files for the game i want to play (link below) but the DOSbox is telling the game cannot be run in DOS box. No installer pops up for the game when I click on it. I'm sure I am making a simple mistake I just cannot igure out what it is.

Hey y'all,

I'm hoping with some support on getting Jumpstart 3D World to work. I've tried both the seregama and teacher editions. I've swapped to Windows XP and 16-bit when I open the game all goes well until you actually pop in and Frankie starts talking, once he says "become a leader" it freezes then crashes. Alternatively if I click through I can just begin to move and then it crashed.

I'm running windows 11 for the actual PC. I've also tried swapping compatibility to vista and 8-bit with no changes. If I keep compatibility to default I can get into the game and move around and have audio, but no visuals.

I just tried only 16-bit no xp and I tried Windows XP compatibility with no color change both crashed as before.

I've tried both types of Windows XP compatibility as well with no difference.

Any help with what's causing the crash would be super helpful. This is a really nostalgic game for me and I'm hoping to start speed running it.

I was trying to download Colin Mcrae Dirt 2007 game from myabandonware, with the help of Jdownloader. But the download was stopping intermittently, and after some consecutive tries, I got 30 minutes waiting time.

I found the reason is myabandonware restricts multiple connections set up by Jdownloader, and hence, flags your IP address.

If anyone else is struggling, use a VPN. Proton vpn provides free tier, and is a well recognised company. Connect to a free server in proton vpn. It bypasses 30 minutes wait time.

Then open Jdownloader, and reduce "max chunks per download" and "max simultaneous downloads" values to let's say, 3. Close Jdownloader and re launch it to apply the changes. It reduces the number of connections set up by Jdownloader. Check the download speed. If it's still too slow or is still stopping intermittently, change both values to 4, then to 5 and so on, till you get stable download speed. Don't increase the value too much, else you will again get flagged by myabandonware. With value 5, I got stable 2-3 Mbps download speed without any lags or wait times.

PixelFade is a game studio that had made 5 Original English Language Visual Novels (OELVN). Such as an isekai fantasy entry like Crystalline which started off as a Kickstarter campaign since March 2017.

But also known for Sci-Fi titles such as the first release of this studio Ace Academy.

PixelFade made this announcement on Steam back on 20th January 2026:

Hello PixelFaders,
After an incredible journey making OELVNs, we have decided that the time has come to retire PixelFade Studio. This was not a decision made lightly, but one we are making with full hearts. We are incredibly proud of the worlds we’ve built and the stories we’ve had the pleasure of sharing with you.
As we move toward closing this chapter, we want to let you know that our games will be removed from sale starting next month. If you have already purchased our games, you will generally continue to have access to download and play them through your library.
Looking back, this journey has been nothing short of amazing. We started with a passion for visual novels and a desire to create something special, but it was all of you who believed in us that let us breathe life into our work. Your overwhelming support allowed us to grow and dream bigger than we ever thought possible.
We are happy to be wrapping things up on our own terms, feeling accomplished and deeply grateful. We are stepping away not with sadness, but with a sense of celebration for everything we achieved together.
Thank you for playing our games, for loving our characters, and for being part of the PixelFade legacy. It has been an honor sharing these stories with you.
Signing off with everything pleasant (with the exception of fireworks :P),
The PixelFade Team
