I'm not aware of a single 16-bit game sold by steam. Are there actually any? (EDIT: I mean in context of Steam, ofc. systems running older 16bit games probably are not getting them from Steam). Admittedly sample size of 1, but the only 16bit windows game I care about (Castle of the winds) runs fine on wine. permalink fedilink source parent
