About This File

Well, here's something completely different! Your beloved Retromags Goddess providing you (yes, you specifically!) with a book about games from the MS-DOS era!

Wait, sorry, I got my notes mixed up. This is actually just the next in a long line of books dealing with classic DOS games brought to you by yours truly. :)

In order, this book covers:

  • Duke Nukem 3D
  • Quake
  • MechWarrior 2
  • Crusader: No Remorse
  • Hexen
  • Heretic
  • Star Wars: Dark Forces
  • Descent
  • Doom II
  • Doom
  • Earthsiege 2
  • Earthsiege
  • Terra Nova
  • Wing Commander IV
  • Wing Commander III
  • Fury3
  • Magic Carpet
  • Renegade

Now, you don't get full walkthroughs for all of these games. What you get instead for most are general, overall strategies that will serve you well throughout a playthrough, taken from articles and reviews written by the staff members of Computer Games Strategy Plus.

The book also came with a CD-ROM containing playable demos for nearly all of the games covered by the book, plus eighteen other games not covered between the covers. My copy, sadly, is lacking this disc, but the good news is that some other enterprising soul uploaded it to Archive.org, and you can grab your own copy of it to play around with!

Now, enough words! Download this book, enjoy the nostalgia, pay me my tribute by kicking that 'Thanks' button like you're Duke Nukem's mighty boot, and prepare for the next awesome release from your Retromags Goddess! ❤️

Well thank you so very much for uploading this book! In high school I had a laptop full of shareware games, and I'm fairly certain every single game in this book was among those. And man, do I wish I had this. I love the visuals to guide you through the various games. Years later, I still need this book though, because the siblings I used to play these games with have sadly passed away since. They were pretty much the only reason I ever got through any of these games. I was always playing coop following their lead, as I never had any sense of direction...

You're very welcome! Also, my condolences on the passing if your siblings. But if this scan went a little way towards keeping their memories alive for you, then I'm so happy you found it here. :)
