    Jumpstart 4th Grade Haunted Island

    Teaches a bunch of subjects and helps develop problem-solving skills; its soundtrack has zero right to be so bitchin' but it is

    Was asking about this today because I couldnt remember the name or franchise and Lemmy came thru, reuniting me with yet another thing I could remember sound of but not the content or name, long thought lost to the sands of time

    Looking for stuff like Reader Rabbit, KidPyx, etc

                  I had so much fun with hyper card! We had to use it in my programming class, I made a small text based RPG out of it!

                    I made RPGs, platformers, space alien style arcade shooters, utilities. It was a huge contributor to my love of computers. RIP Bill Atkinson!

                      I have fond childhood memories of playing Doom 3 with the lights off in my basement. Scariest shit ever.

                      Also Metal Gear Solid 2 stands out as a game that blew my mind.

                            Lode Runner: The Legend Returns was a game that came preinstalled by Compaq on Windows 95. Around age five I found the game captivating, and the level editor was fantastic for my brother and I.

                                  I played all sorts of edutainment games, but I’ll give a deep cut and go with Grammar Games. I’ve never tried booting it up as an adult. I wonder if it holds up even slightly.

                                          I grew up on 500-in-1 shareware discs as a real young kid, got into playing heaps of Runescape on mom's laptop in late primary school, and when she eventually got me my own Pentium 4 PC I played the ever-loving shit outta the classic Source games and mods. Many nights were spent with my international pals playing Garry's Mod or Zombie Master til the early winking of daylight met my dried, crusty eyes. Good times. Better times.
