In the final episode of the Keen series, Commander Keen must rescue his babysitter from aliens using nothing but a gun and a pogo stick. As in Goodbye Galaxy, you start with the pogo stick, which is really helpful. Excellent level design and imaginative enemies make this a fitting finale to a beloved series that is known for simple graphics and gameplay, but excellent replayability and fun factor. A "Special Demo Version" was distributed in North America by FormGen, and a "Promotional Release Version" was distributed in the UK distributor by Precision Software Applications. There are 17 levels in this game, with only the first few playable in the shareware version. Episode 6: Aliens Ate My Babysitter Downloads
AvailabilityI have found no ordering information for this game. It is the only Commander Keen game on id Software's website that doesn't have a "Buy It" link.

In this prequel to Wolfenstein 3D, the Nazis have stolen the Spear of Destiny, a relic that was used to pierce the side of Jesus Christ and is said to make the bearer invincible, from Versailles in the early days of the Blitzkrieg in World War II. As B.J. Blazkowicz, your mission is to recover the Spear from Hitler before it's too late. Developed by id Software and published by FormGen Corporation, Spear of Destiny added some new graphics, but was essentially a collection of new levels for Wolfenstein 3D. Spear of Destiny uses the same engine (and source code) as Wolfenstein 3D, and the two games are virtually indistinguishable from each other, other than new wall textures and new bosses and enemies. Originally a single episode, two new missions were released in 1994. There are 3 missions in this game, with only the first two levels of the first mission playable in the shareware demo. Mission 1 - Spear of Destiny
