Games

Nothing defines humanity like the games we play...

..and I sure have played a lot of them! This is the section where I will tell everyone about all the gaming experiences I've had, starting from when I was old enough to pound on a keyboard. Most of these are old classics, but I still play them! I mentioned a few games in the computer overview at the top of the computer section, but this is where the real details will be at. Everything from where I got these titles, to any grief I caused will be well documented! I will add to this list as I complete each section. Here is my gaming past (in somewhat chronological order).

Wishbringer - My first text adventure from the greatest text adventure makers of all time
