Great list! That Warcraft II sound of axes hitting the town hall is forever deeply embedded in my brain :)

[@minty_Joe]

Doom 1 & 2, Marathon, YDKJ, Carmageddon: The Carpocalypse, Sim City (of the many different versions), Bedlam, Maelstrom and Escape Velocity are my favourites.

[@RikerJoe]

Civ is my favorite and I install it on every classic Mac I own

[@TekTherapy]

This was exactly what i was looking for! Been subscribed for a while but a best of gaming on mac os9 series is just epic! Greets from a fellow content creator.. That has finally come around on setting up old macs again!

[@sailcat662]

These are great! And for me perfect timing as I just got my Wallstreet G3 up and running again. It would be great if you kept these types of videos coming, perhaps a 10 best city Builder games etc. Thanks!

[@BCjeffro420]

So many good memories, Thanks!

[@YesterYearsMacGames]

Settlers II for me, followed by Civ 2 (never actually tried Civ 1), Shadow Wraith, 3 in Three, Future Cop, & Deadlock. Enjoyed hearing about Secrets of the Luxor. I've barely played any Mystlikes as they have typically come across as a bit stuffy to me, but that one looks very quirky!

[@enzofitzhume7320]

Myst is still my #1

[@sailcat662]

I remember when Myst came out that there was a backlash against it by gaming "purists" for some reason. I was just a kid at the time but i bought into it and therefore never played it but after watching this vid, I'll rectify that mistake 😁

[@ROBOROBOROBOROBO]

Hi Bruce, I love your ultrasonic video series, they are so comprehensive and I learned a lot from them Would you consider making an ultrasonic cutter video once, I wonder if it is possible to make a cake cutter or a pizza cutter with combining multiple of those 50W generic cleaner transducers. There is a lot of content online about cleaners but so little on cutters.

[@MichaelAStanhope]

If it doesn't run DOOM its not worth owning! I used to play Unreal Tournament on OS9 too, albiet with limited framerate! Warcraft II and Starcraft were some of my favorites too!

[@Fred_Raimer]

Awesome video, Bruce! Thanks!

[@protox07]

I like your videos

[@YgorMaster]

Yes i like the film Doom !

[@BranchusCreations]

Yay! I'm glad someone else does too!

[@richardchartier3023]

I have two questions for you. What is recapping actually? I watch it and get an idea but don't know exactly. Second question is, what kind of a degree do you have or training? I think I can answer one of my own questions. Recapping is repairing the computer so it's in good shape and working.

[@BranchusCreations]

This video is pretty old, but it does thoroughly explain what recapping is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZvKiKJtos9rY9ksi=cTc2k2SogEVjzMxd

[@brentgreeff1115]

Rand Miller talks about how the Mac version of Myst is superior to the PC version. Would be nice to do a follow up focusing on games that were better on Mac. - Can you recommend a Mac that will run Myst + Riven - the G3 tower is appealing but I want one of those SCSI drives that do CD emulation so I don’t need to swap disks.

[@stevegonzo9316]

Try "Lost Eden" MacOS 7-7.6 or 9

The latest Apple M3 chip is very fast, very impressive. Too bad that it is terrible for gaming. And 3D modeling too.
