It's interesting how culturally dependant trivia games are. Playing the 1987 #Jeopardy #DOSGame, I really have a hard time answering many of the questions. There is also a German version called #Riskant. It's not just a translation, the questions are different ones. That localized version is very easy to win for me.

English trivia question: "Nick and Nora Charles' Terrier in *The Thin Man*"

Answer: "Who is Asta?"German question (translated): "A metal, sung about by Spandau Ballet"

Answer: "Gold"

Re-reading this guest review on my own website really makes me want to play #GlobalConquest again! It's not a super structured write-up, or even highly researched, but shows so much highly infective enthusiasm.

Discovering foreign worlds or even distant planets has always been the kind of fascination that can be simulated especially by computer games in such an enjoyable way. The programming of such worlds alone is worth exploring. The #DOSGame #JoeStarmanOnPlanetX is a short tour through some role-playing fantasy and - as it is open source - also allows a look at the #QuickBasic code in the background.

Before the release of my review of Verne: The Shape of Fantasy, coming out tomorrow, here's a brief look back at the sublime but very challenging 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea by Coktel Vision, released in 1988.

Nostalgia...

I have missed quite a few games it seems. Beyond the classics, I have a wkeaness for Magic carpet 1/2

Continuing my #DosGame adventure with the kids.

Did the Reader Rabbit series with them. 5 did an amazing job with all the words and reading. Did his first word scramble. He was pretty funny. Kept telling 4 that they had to hit F1 for help, and then would proceed to read the instructions out loud so they could work on the game together.

4 did a good job with letter identification.

I do like the old educational games. I feel like there is more focus on education.

@NamelessGO I know this one and several people addressed it correctly in the thread. RAR became popular when the competitors were basically ZIP and ARJ. It compressed much better at a time when people were still using floppy disks. Being able to save a floppy disk or two was huge.

It also has a good reputation for resilience on read errors which were very common because... floppy disks.
