Familiar DOS games

This is me not lurking [img]tongue.gif[/img]

OK, what we're here for: DOS games. Most of us have played them, I know I have. Its been a while since I've played any of them, however. I'd estimate ten years at the most. Just recently I've tried to locate some of them via shareware, and have managed to find a few. I'll start this out by asking which games you all have played, but I'd like to end it by asking the name of one I can't seem to locate.

I've played (or found that I know I've played)
Alien Carnage
Captain Comic
Electroman (I'm doubtful)
Jill of the Jungle (again, I'm skeptical, but I remember something like this)
Pharaoh's Tomb

I know there have been others, but these are the only ones I've managed to find. My question, now, is if any of you know which game includes a boy killing monsters. I'm sorry I can't clarify more than this, but I remember he had to go in a house or something.. Eh, it's very sketchy, I think he used a slingshot.

There is a good site for DOS games:

www.the-underdogs.org

Maybe you can find there what you need.

No, he's talking about Monster Bash (starring Johnny Dash). [img]smile.gif[/img] It's a fun game, a tad bit too easy sometimes, but okay [img]smile.gif[/img] Story plot: free all cats and dogs!
