RoboMaze II: The Lobby under Virtual PC

  • Article

So as I was browsing through my usual set of DOS games / old shareware sites the other day - I came across a link to 'RoboMaze II: The Lobby'. As I sat there staring at the screen I though 'I know that game... but I can't remember anything about it'. A few moments later I had downloaded and run it under Virtual PC:RoboMaze II: The Lobby under Virtual PC

And immediately realized why I didn't remember anything about this game - it stinks. The graphics are mediocre to say the least - and the keyboard input method is just plain irritating (once you press an arrow key your character will continue to move in that direction until you press the down arrow key) which makes the basic platform maneuvers excruciatingly painful. Sigh... But at least it did run well under Virtual PC :-)

If you really want to subject yourself to this game you can download it from here: https://www.dosgames.com/files/1rm2.zip
