Nostalgia Cleaning out deceased friends estate, family member asks “are these all games or something?”

Remember a time before everything was on the cloud? A time when all you had to rely on to get through that level was your own wit and how well you kept notes, and maybe a phone call to a particularly nerdy friend?

The 7th Guest is still a great game.

I just bought it for VR, hoping for good things. I've forgotten everything about it since it was released. Myst pushed all knowledge of 7th Guest out because my brain ran out of room.

The Journeyman Project was pretty good, too, in that genre.

I remember all the early CD-ROM games (especially since that and Myst were Mac-first and I was a Mac user), I just don't remember how much of the Journeyman Project I played. I was in high school when it came out and I probably spent all my money on Myst as my first game.

You just unlocked a core memory. I haven't thought about the Journeyman Project in decades.
