RAM Raid

Anything relating to CD-i can be discussed in this forum. From the multiple hardware iterations of the system to the sofware including games, reference, music and Video CDs. Maybe you hold an interest in Philips Media and the many development houses set up to cater for CD-i if so then this is the forum.

RAM Raid

Post by Bas » Sat Oct 29, 2005 8:47 pm

Sweet memories of the first online game Philips brought to the public in 1996, go have a nice read at the re-vamped article from their old site: RAM Raid and compare it with the latter Atlantis

thanks for all the great updates, guys!

Do you think it would still be possible to play this game online? I know you need the CD-Online server for this, but what has to be running on it??

Apparently it needs some data files which were located on the cd-online server. I think you can't change these settings to another server, and you don't have the missing files i guess...

the maze files were on the UK server. (I believe 3 mazes)

You can still play the game though, just select "practice arena" and select "more practice" for a slightly different one.

the home page for ramraid is still in the web archive:
http://web.archive.org/web/199610311242 ... epage.html

I have two disc with the ram-raid game:
the UK cd-Online Issue 02 "the Internet GAME ISSUE"
(this is cd-online 0171 436 8677 Cat. 819 0088)

and the dutch: cd-online "The Net on your set!" disc 96-10
(cat. 810 0332)

The game is identical. strangely the newer "cd-online disc 97-10" (cat. 773 9115) doesn't seem to have the game. It isn't in the menus. maybe it is hidden?
