quote [ The Adams brothers just want what they need to survive, and making millions is a concept they can't comprehend. ]
Here's 7 inebriated borderline psychotic bastards, go dig out a living space for 200 more of them that will be coming soon. BTW, there's also a terrible tentacle monster-panda made out of barf to deal with. Have fun

quote [ In Europe, Duck Avenger became a hit. And after it, more series tried to reinvent classic characters in new weird ways. We got a horror series starring Goofy as a werewolf, for example, and another about the scholastic shenanigans of Donald as a kid. European Disney had discovered the concept of Multiverse. ]
Interesting anecdotes on brand variation through 90s videogames.

quote [ You?d be forgiven for not having heard of Poop Slinger, but this little known indie title has a unique and distinct honor. Released for the PlayStation 4 and Steam in August 2018 by little known developer ?Diggidy.net?, the ?casual poop launcher game? didn?t manage to cause much of a stink (pun intended). ]
Probably one of the shittiest games around so it sold only 84 physical copies, goes for a whopping $11,399.99 on eBay.

quote [ With access to the source code, a group of dedicated fans is now tinkering with the Zork Implementation Language (ZIL). Infocom was eventually bought out by Activision in 1986, but was quickly shut down a few years later. There are more modern collections of Infocom games available, keeping the spirit of Zork alive, but the source code, which could teach us how Infocom managed to create such a sophisticated game at the time, had been deemed lost. That is, until this week, when internet archivist Jason Scott uploaded a collection of all Infocom text adventures and interactive fiction games? source codes to GitHub, including the Zork games and Infocom?s video game adaptation of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. ]
Awesome - I wonder if there's a mobile version

quote [ This game is about playing one small part in a much larger story. You only live an hour, but time and space in this game is infinite. ]
You can only do so much in one lifetime, but the tech tree in this game will take hundreds of generations to fully explore. This game is also about family trees. Having a mother who takes care of you as a baby, and hopefully taking care of a baby yourself later in life.

quote [ Players moving pieces along a track to be first to reach a goal was the archetypal board game format of the 18th and 19th century. Alex Andriesse looks at one popular incarnation in which these pieces progress chronologically through history itself, usually with some not-so-subtle ideological, moral, or national ideal as the object of the game. ]
We liked to play old board games
