Well done to Talicca, who managed to guess yesterday’s Remember This. It was Rogue! The old game that essentially introduced a new genre to the world.
Good luck with today’s effort my dear chums.

Haunted House?

Oh, no.. Akalabeth! It’s a dungeon.
Edit: Spelling.
Yep, it’s Akalabeth, Richard Garriot’s Apple II game from back before he started doing Ultima.
I swear the only time I ever get “Remember This” right, is when it’s an Ultima or Ultima related game, I guess you can tell what games I played in the 80s/90s.
I’m thinking maybe Asteroids ??
Havent played it for a loooooooong time, but I get that vibe from it.
tempest?
Tron?
Battlezone?
Can we have something post 80’s so i have even the slightest chance at one of these? I’m 30 but didn’t start gaming until the SNES era…
That just means you need to make the time to go back and play the classics, GOG is a good place to start. 🙂
I won’t have the discipline to sit through these approximately 30 years after they were released. My attention span has gotten distinctly worse… Cop out response I know, thanks for the suggestion though.
second that
Second that motion! I’ve been a pretty keen gamer since the early 90’s but I haven’t been able to guess a single one of these.
I’ve been doing a fairly mixed bag. Was doing a bunch of 2000s games recently.
