Civilization II
Just one more turn and I’ll go to bed…
Hmmm… what’s that light outside the window? Oh… that’s the sun rising.
Chrono Trigger. I couldn’t even tell you the number of hours I spent playing and replaying that game over and over as a kid.
This game has a special place in my heart. It’s like my Lord of the Rings of video games. I’ll play it again from time to time just to indulge myself.
I wouldn’t say too many hours. More like the right amount of hours. But for me it was Super Mario World, DK 64, and Donkey Kong Country.
Frogger. 1 quarter at a time. My part time job as a young teen paid for 1000’s of hours…
Childhood….uh…… Oregon trail? Anything on the OG Nintendo system, or Atari. I loved the original Mario and Zelda games. Spent a lot of time in front of them for sure.
Dungeon Keeper. It’s old now, and basically just a pixel on modern hardware, but I LOVED that game. Still do. I bought it on GOG and still play it even though it’s almost 30 years old.
During my childhood i had a commodore64 and My favorite games were boulder dash and oils well. In my early teens i just had a gameboy. Adventure island and darkwing duck were my two go to games. In my teen years during the mid 90s i was all about lucas arts adventure games… special mention for sam n max and day of the tentacle
Powder Game, still available https://dan-ball.jp/en/javagame/dust2/
Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts
I loved this game, but gosh was it difficult…
Many lol. But the first that came to mind was Smash Melee. That game was my entire 8th grade.
A strategy game called Dark Colony. I have yet to meet someone who has heard of it but I spent many nights weekends and mornings before school playing that game.
Diablo 2, counter strike source, world of warcraft
Plenty more but these are probably the most serious offenders when it comes to overplaying them
Starcraft Brood War.
UMS was crazy with how many games people would make for it. Cat and mouse… zergbound… The craziest one I played was a Hyrule war map where everyone picked a race and held back a player controlled Ganon army while Link runs around completing actual dungeons and prepping for the final showdown. Anything and everything was in UMS.
Yeah there were some awesome custom maps for that. The Battle for Helm’s Deep one was really cool too. Insane how well balanced that was. There were many times the Orcs (Zerg natch) broke through and we’d be fighting in the caves when Gandalf would show up.
Even though they were obviously marines, zealots, zerglings, etc, I’d get into it and could imagine them all as human archers, elves, and orcs.
I also liked to start games on “fastest possible map ever” and call it “7v1 comp stomp bsers welcome”. It would be a crazy game of diplomacy everyone BSing (back stabbing) each other as soon as the computer player was eliminated. Sometimes before. And of course someone stays allied but unchecks “allied victory” so everyone sitting on ridiculous amounts of resources (it was FPME) accusing each other, forming alliances, killing off a player suspected to be the one (based on nothing LOL) then finding out we didn’t get the right one. It was so hilarious.
