Bringing Old Czech Čtyřlístek Games Back to Life
I remember these old Czech Čtyřlístek games from my childhood, when they showed up as part of Nesquik cereal promotions. My brother and I used to play them together, and years later I wanted to see whether my son could play them too. That quickly turned into a practical problem: my own machines run Linux or macOS, and even a Windows 11 laptop from work did not run the games reliably.
If you are not Czech, Čtyřlístek is a long-running Czech comics series for kids. It also produced a line of PC CD-ROM games. The whole series has roughly twenty titles, but I focused on three CDs I still had at home:
- Čtyřlístek: Zítra se bude tapetovat (
tapetovat, 2001) - Čtyřlístek: Sami doma (
sami, 2003) - Čtyřlístek: Silák Bobík (
silak, 2005)
