Nostalgia: PC Games

I'm not one of those fanatical gamers, but I still remember when I was around twelve years old, being upgraded from the old 486DX4 computer, to a hot Pentium 166 MHz engine, opening doors to a new game experience. I still remember my first own game, so this is where I'll start from..

Theme Park


Here, you are the manager of a theme park, and your job is to build attractions and everything around it, ice cream bars, etc. Your turnover is - of course - determined by admission tickets sold. I never had time to get to be the manager of a major theme park though, the game just disappeared all of a sudden. I remember my mother being really mad about this act of mate theifery that was apparently de Facto. Which, she of course was right on. A really low blow, by someone. However, it's still a gaming memory.

Full Throttle


Here's a great game. I had actually reached like half the game before I got stuck long enough to loose interest. However, I remember this being really of the hook. I actually found the game intro on Youtube, so I post a link here below. Anyhow.. To the story. You're Ben, starting of just awaken in a dumpster. Your first move is to kick up the dumpster lid. And from here the adventure takes it's start. Really cool.
