There was a PnC adventure game I have vague memories of, it was a kid-friendly game and had reasonably open design... I can't remember its name to save my life, but I wish I could because I really loved it.
I'd also say that even though it's not exactly hidden, the original Starship: Tribes was one of the best shooters I've ever played. I hate that it was largely forgotten and ignored. I mean, Ascend was a solid game but ruined by microtransactions. That series deserved so much better.
Shazbot! Sadly not a DOS game.
Describe the PNC game, if you'd like. Maybe someone will recognize it.
Ah darn, I didn't think about that heh. I genuinely can't recall much about the adventure game, just that it had a city environment (at least for part of it) and cartoonish graphics. I'm pretty sure it was just some low-budget kids' game but I'd love to revisit it sometime and unlock memories I've forgotten haha
