Pretty sure this game can be safely classified as a "fever dream"... Today for Ancient DOS Games, Gemini's taking a look back at Savage, a short but incredibly frantic and difficult action game originally developed by Probe Software and put out in 1988 on various 8-bit home computers, with the DOS port arriving in 1989 being published by MicroProse under their Microplay label. ------------------------------------------ Additional Information and Corrections: * If you'd like to grab a copy of the game from GOG, follow this link: https://www.gog.com/en/game/savage/?pp=91dfde1d6e005e422f64a59776234f1f4c80b5e4 * Or, if you'd prefer to grab it from Steam, follow this link: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1157870/Savage/ * To be fair, even though the GOG release lacks a manual (don't know about the Steam release) the manual itself is only a few pages long and barely goes over much of anything other than the story and loading instructions. :P ------------------------------------------ Pixelmusement Website: https://www.pixelships.com ADG on Pixelmusement: https://www.pixelships.com/adg Alphabetical Index of ADG Episodes: https://www.pixelships.com/adg/index2.html Kris' Patreon Page: https://www.patreon.com/kasick @ pixelmusement.com on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/pixelmusement.com ------------------------------------------ Chapters: 00:00 Title and Intro 01:36 Game Stats 03:57 Gameplay 05:46 Level 1 09:21 Level 2 11:18 Level 3 12:49 Overall 13:28 DOSBox Configuration 14:47 Credits
