Play Felix Online
Dig through dirt, dodge tumbling boulders, and grab diamonds while avoiding hatching eggs that turn into relentless little chasers—one wrong move and you're either crushed or cornered.
Felix is a 1990 MS-DOS game developed by Ad Lib Software, a name more known for its sound cards than its games. It arrived during a time when platformers were common, but few had the same focus on methodical digging and item collection. The game doesn't try to reinvent the wheel; it just presents a simple, clear task in a colorful, blocky world.
You control Felix, a small character tasked with clearing each screen of all diamonds while avoiding various enemies. The primary actions involve digging through soft dirt to create paths and to dislodge boulders, which can crush you if you're standing below them. The main objective is straightforward: collect every diamond to open the exit. Key mechanics include screen-by-screen progression, careful manipulation of the environment to trap or avoid enemies, and managing the constant threat of eggs that hatch into pursuing creatures if you take too long. The pacing is deliberate, almost puzzle-like, demanding patience over speed. It feels like a tense game of excavation where every dig could either save you or seal your fate.
Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
