Forgotten PC Games of our Childhood
When we got our first computer, a Tandy 1000, my parents had to lift me into the chair to seat me in front of it. I grew up with that and many other machines, and had a really great time. I still remember learning how to read and type at the same time playing Police Quest, and hacking in to Amy's First Primer to change the bkg/sounds and all that. Good times.
Anyway, post ITT those games that you played as a kid and would like to play again, but can't recall the title. I'll go first:
I was introduced to this one through a PC Gamer demo disc. They had an article in that issue called "The 10 Strangest PC Games" or something like that. Anyway, in this one, the protagonist was a robotic microchip that would crawl around on spindly legs. Except, kind of like in Lemmings, the player wasn't the robot, but instead, some kind of omnipresent meddler that solved puzzles so that the robot could progress. You would click on things in the 3D environment (I remember being impressed with the graphics at the time; these were the days of the N64/PS1, I think), and the things that you clicked on would move and do things. The robot would then pass through to the exit of its own accord. The AI was pretty decent, if I remember right.
Anyway, if anything here rings a bell, post it plz! I'm really stuck on this one.
