How can I figure out the name of the games that used to come standard on old 90's IBM computers?

Question

There's a game I remember playing on my dad's IBM computer in the early-mid 90's. It was already installed when he bought the computer... came with minesweeper, solitare, etc. it was an old pixel-ie strategy game.

To descirbe as best I can ( I was 8 at the time) you were a warrior with a sword. you moved one space at a time trying to collect weapons and kill enemys. sometimes youd fight snakes, and spiders. If you killed an emeny, you got a health kit or their sword and there were periodic villages. You never knew what was in front of you because the area ahead was unknown until you were a square away. very small screen. not much detail. dont know the goal of it b/c I never beat it.

Anyone know this game?

Answer 1

I think if you described the game in detail there would be plenty of people on Yahoo Answers that could name it.

Answer 2

Is it possibly called "Inkball"? I know that comes with Vista but it doesn't come with any other Windows Operating System that I can remember.

Answer 3

I used to play that game

I like ski-free

It was like called baxter's castle or something
