Great price for the Commander Keen Complete Pack coming DRM-free.

From the website:

Commander Keen: Invasion of the Vorticons:

Episode 1: Marooned on Mars (Dec. 14th 1990)
Episode 2: The Earth Explodes (1991)
Episode 3: Keen Must Die! (1991)
Commander Keen's very first adventure, and the debut of id's groundbreaking side-scrolling technology. In the game you play the role of Commander Keen: the alter-ego of an eight year-old genius by the name of Billy Blaze. When Billy learns that the Earth is in danger, he dons his brother's football helmet and his homemade interstellar spaceship to become Commander Keen — Defender of the Earth!

Commander Keen in Goodbye Galaxy!:

Episode 4: Secret of the Oracle (1991)
Episode 5: The Armageddon Machine (1991)
You are eight-year-old Billy Blaze, boy genius to your neighborhood. Commander Keen to the rest of the universe. It's time to grab your trusty pogo stick and neural stunner, climb into the cockpit of your homemade Megarocket and blast off for the Shadowlands. To prevent the obliteration of life as we know it, you'll have to battle your way past deadly hazards and devious creatures, or end up as space toast.

Enjoy!

    Sounds like it will work fine on today's machines?

    I don't have time to build a dos box etc

      All games in the pack are pre-configured to run with DOSBox. Slight caveat though - games default to fullscreen and going to windowed mode leaves you at a tiny fixed 320*200 size unless you edit a .conf file for each game.

        So won't just run on a win 10 laptop easily?

          As he said, via DOSBox

              @daft009: It’s actually really easy. The games come with Dosbox. You just launch them. Only slightly tricky if you want to run them in a window as someone said above.

                @thegieche: aah right lol… thought I had to get an old PC box and install DOS on it or similar :P
                like a retro PC

                there is software called dosbox! :D

    Interesting that a "Complete" pack is missing Episode 3.5 "Keen Dreams" and Episode 6 "Aliens Ate My Babysitter"
