Play Jeopardy! on Msdos Online

Game Overview

Remember when games came on floppy disks and sounded like your keyboard was having a meltdown? Jeopardy! on MS-DOS is exactly that—a gloriously clunky trivia time machine. You’ll squint at those chunky blue-on-black menus, hammer the spacebar to "buzz in," and suddenly realize you’ve forgotten how to phrase anything as a question. (Pro tip: The AI absolutely cheats on science questions.)

The nostalgia hits hardest when the MIDI version of the theme song kicks in, or when you land on a Daily Double and panic because, let’s be honest, you were never good at 19th-century literature. The graphics look like they were drawn with ASCII art, and the opponents have all the personality of a dial-up modem, but somehow that just makes winning feel more satisfying. Modern trivia games might have flashy animations, but this one’s pure, unfiltered "wait, was Mount Rushmore carved before or after 1900?" chaos.

Alex Trebek’s pixelated smirk will haunt your dreams. In a good way.

Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
