• Wildfire by Cricket Software
  With Wildfire-"The Urban/Wildland Interface Fire Simulation", you command an engine, water tender and dozer to protect structures in up to eight different terrains. Dispatch engine to the scene, and lay attack hose. You control the nozzle on spray or stream, using water or foam. You have a 500 gallon tank and that can go quickly, so watch your water supply. Dispatch the water tender to refill your tank or use your portable pump to refill from a nearby lake or stream. Dispatch the Dozer tender to the fire, unload and drive the dozer to cut fire lines. Watch for spot fires, they can jump your lines and cause havoc. Set back fires, but watch for sudden wind changes. Some maps have hydrants to refill tanks but on others you have to rely on water bodies. Wind direction is selectable in eight different quadrants or all quadrants and maximum wind speed can be set from ten to 60 KNTS. Includes on-line help, realistic radio, engine and fire sounds.

• gtBunny by Graham Minchin
  (DISCLAIMER: Description written by the author, not myself. All opinions expressed are those of Graham Minchin and should not be construed to represent in any way those of Ethan Brodsky ;-)
  gtBunny is a DOS game that was inspired by a pleasant afternoon's bunny bashing. It is one of the simplest games you'll ever play, but I hope you'll find it entertaining for at least the first two minutes. It does run on an 8086, but it's pretty slow. Windows doesn't like it, there's some problem with DMA buffers (must have something to do with Ethan's code!).
  Three other things you might like to know:
  
  • gtBunny isn't just freeware, it's You'd-never-pay-money-for-this-ware
  • Ethan doesn't approve - he likes rabbits. (I do too, but you have to fry them quite a bit cos they smell. They taste like chicken if you cook them properly and they have lots of bones.)
  • You can shoot Michael Bolton too!
