Introduction
I love video games. When I was a kid, however, there were only a few video games that really stood out to me. In recent years, as technology and gaming has advanced, a lot of new titles have come out which have become popular with gamers all over the globe. There are still some old school classics which have stood the test of time though and I believe that these are worth exploring if you haven’t played them yet!
Pac-man
In the early 80’s, Pac-Man was one of my dad’s favorite games. I remember him playing it with me and my sister on our Atari 2600 system. It was a fun game to play but it was frustrating at times because you had to chase ghosts around mazes before you could eat them and get points.
I also remember pacman 30th anniversary when we moved from our townhouse into an apartment complex where there were no kids living there anymore (they had left for university or jobs). One day after school ended for both of us, we decided to go play some video games together in our new home – but unfortunately none were nearby! So instead we went upstairs into this small bedroom where they still kept everything from their childhoods – including old video cassettes! This particular one contained Pac-Man which hadn’t been played since before either of us were born! We put our treasure trove inside a closet so nobody would see what they belonged too…
Nerdle
Nerdle was a puzzle game that was developed by Silicon & Synapse and published by Interplay Productions in 1992. The game is based on the movie of the same name, which was released earlier in 1992.
In nerdle game today, you play as Bucky or Punkie (depending on your choice) who are two nerdy boys from a small town who want to leave their home and go out into the world. You’ll need to figure out how to survive in this place full of monsters and bad guys if you want to make it home again!
Mainly move tiles around an 8×8 grid board to match them with tiles being placed down at random locations. Add points depending on whether they match perfectly with previous placements There’s also an option where each player can choose what kind of character they’d like their avatar character looking like–there’s no gender restriction here so feel free if aesthetically challenged!
The Journeyman Project
Presto Studios developed and Mindscape published The Journeyman Project, a point-and-click adventure game released in 1992.
X-Wing Alliance
LucasArts released X-Wing Alliance, a space flight simulator game, in 1998. It was the fourth game in the X-Wing series and set during the time period of Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi. The player takes on the role of a pilot who must complete missions for different factions within the Star Wars universe, such as Rebel Alliance or Galactic Empire.
LucasArts published and Totally Games (formerly Factor 5) developed X-Wing Alliance, which featured many elements from previous games in the franchise. However, one thing that made this particular entry stand out from other titles was its unique gameplay style which involved flying around space stations instead of just flying through open skies like most other games had done up until then
The Neverhood
The Neverhood is a point-and-click adventure game created by Doug TenNapel and released in 1996. The game takes place in the Neverhood, a world built entirely out of claymation. It’s basically like playing with your favourite toys and then putting them back in your parents’ basement so you can play with them again.
The story follows Jonny Quest (voiced by Christopher Lloyd), his brother Hadji (voiced by Jim Cummings) and their friend Driller Mole as they travel around trying to find out who stole all their gold coins that they won at the carnival earlier that day.
If you have had a chance to play any of these games. Or if you have a favorite old school video game, please share your thoughts below.
- I have been a gamer from the start. My family has a passion for gaming, and I was born into it. My parents played video games, and I had access to an Atari 2600 at home when I was young, so it’s no surprise that my love for them grew over time.
- It’s a reality that I enjoy video games from time to time–and even when they’re not my favorite thing in life (like watching football), there are still times when I prefer playing one over reading or watching television! So if you’re someone who likes any of these choices too and don’t mind sharing why so we can get together again one day soon
Conclusion
When I was younger, there were several classic video games that I played over and over. In fact, I still play them today!Some classic games are still for sale in stores, but others are so rare that you can only find them online.
