I got 36, but it sure as hell wasn't easy. In many cases there were several really close alternatives.

29/50

I knew almost all the RPG, adventure, FPS, and sidescrolling games, but I missed most of the racing, sport, and sim ones.

Several times I went against my initial gut reaction, and then my initial gut reaction proved to be correct. :-\

Got the first 5 wrong and closed the window :'( The only DOS games I played were Hugo and one of the golf games. I must have put 100 hours into the golf one, can't remember the name though

In many cases, I was just guessing, and in many more, I was distracted by the derivative nature of the games, thinking they were something similar. So many similar games.

Exactly what happened to me.. I got 36/50. There were some I knew instantly (especially anything mid 90's shareware), others I guessed and got lucky, and others I just used process-of-elimination (i.e. no way that kart racer was "Mario Kart" :P )

36/50

Not bad, a few process of elimination guesses and all the ones I missed were obscure as fuck titles no one played.  I was a moderately mainstream gamer back in the 80s.  I knew the main titles, but stuff definitely flew under my radar.

36. Surprised how many I outright knew, and a good few by process of elimination. Man I loved Strike Commander, gotta check that shit out again.

lol I got 36 as well! Was stoked to see Zone 66 there. Now I realise that the title of that game was riffing on Area 88

Got 34 right. Weird mixture of legit classics/well known games and some absolutly obscure shit imo.
