This is where you post odd Chex Quest stuff and projects scattered about on the internet that are just out there and don't seem to get any attention here.

http://www.freewebs.com/chexquest95/
This is Chex Quest 95, apparently, nothing more than the Doom 95 port with the Chex Quest IWAD instead of Doom-something. Since it's only the WAD that's different, it inherits Doom 95s "features" and problems, such as the Doom text and the inability to move one's mouse on XP and above.

I don't even know what this is, since I can't run either executable, but apparently, it's another Doom project with the Chex Quest IWAD slapped in. A bunch of other Doom material is left intact. I suspect this to be some sort of Doom RPG thing.

It appears as though our very own Slimeinator has beat us to this one. Since I am not a member there, I can't know what it is (and apparently, neither does The Slimeinator, since he couldn't download it because of broken links). The screenshots suggest that Doom material is left over in this project, as well. However, there also appears to be some new stuff. Unfortunately, this project may very well be lost to time.

Post some other Chex Quest oddities, or discuss the ones already posted!

I captured this with Google. It looks like a crash page of the old readme of chex quest that was posted on the chex quest site back in 1997.



That one you said was a Doom RPG, yes, whould that possibly be a mobile chex quest? or a Doom RPG chex quest mod? seems like its just chex quest on the page.

What you found, Limozeen, is a webpage reproduction of the chexquest.com FAQ images by Lucius. The webpage was assembled by ivhimss, a member from the old website that hasn't been seen from in quite awhile, and hasn't gotten around to coming to this website, yet. His or her website was originally at http://www.cadetswdm.org/ivhimss/chex/, but it appears that the domain squatters got it.

WAHAHAHA! I bumped a year-old topic just to post in there, and I don't think I'll be getting a reply any time soon. ;D
