Like Boofo I started out with a 300 baud modem. Of course that was before eb-browsers and everything was text-based. There was something neat about watching the letters being displayed on the screen one at a time.

That was a time when even color codes made things go slower. And forget about ANY kind of graphics at that speed.

It was almost like watching a manual typewriter in action.

These kinds of games will never lose their flare. They take a lot more thinking and skill than the shoot-em-ups that are big today. These are classics!

In the early days of 2400 and 9600 Baud, these were the only kinds of games that could run half-way decent.

Check out the link to my game setup, Brad, and join in.
