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!

it is posted november 15th, so I was a bit early. If someone has a copy of the second cd-online disc, please contact me. It's been ages since i saw Ram Raid with my own eyes. (instead of watching a video)..

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:

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?
