Do you have a game that you love from “before your time?”
This is primarily aimed at the younger folks here, but it can conceivably work for anyone. Is there a game that came out from before you started gaming that you have since played and loved? An...
This is primarily aimed at the younger folks here, but it can conceivably work for anyone.
Is there a game that came out from before you started gaming that you have since played and loved? An oldie for you, but still a goodie?
I’m curious because gaming has changed so much so quickly that a lot of older games feel like they almost require fond nostalgia to counterbalance their clunkiness. For others, they were sort of a “you had to be there” moment because gaming hadn’t developed fully as a medium so we players weren’t aware of their limitations at the time.
Without nostalgia or direct experience with them, a lot of their magic is gone.
Has anyone found that magic in a game even without the nostalgia? If so, which one(s). What made them resonate for you?
In particular, I’m interested in games that specifically aren’t remakes/remasters since those often modernize elements, but I won’t say they aren’t allowed for the purposes of the question or anything, since they’re also a very accessible way for modern gamers to access older titles.

I just learned that I can use the Steam Link app (iOS link, Android link) to stream Steam games to my phone and tablet (within my home).
I have no desire to play M/KB or controller-based games on these devices (I already have a computer and a Steam Deck which can do those better), but I like the idea of playing some more casual stuff that only uses mouse input (in the form of me tapping the screen).
I'm thinking stuff like:
- Mobile game ports meant for touch input
- Point-and-click adventures
- Clicker games
- Anything else I'm not thinking of that could be easily played by tapping the screen
I'm interested specifically in lower-precision mouse-based games that would be comfortable to play on my relatively small phone screen (the device I'm most likely to use), though that's not a hard requirement. Anything requiring more precision I could play on my much larger tablet screen instead.
What games do you recommend?

My partner has a old 2003 Ford Focus and I want to change the radio from stock to something that has bluetooth.
Here's my understanding on aftermarket radio:- Every car is different, depends on the dashboard and the radio harness thing
- Finding out what what radio to buy/how to fit it is usually done by finding old YouTube videos from someone with 100 followers from 2008
- Sometimes it can be really easy and sometimes it can be really annoying to fit
Is my understanding correct?
I've tried this before with another car I had (a 2009 Mitsubishu Lancer) and it was such a nightmare I gave up. So I want to double check with any car nerds that I'm not missing anything obvious or there's no source of truth or something to go checkout/learn.Any help would be appreciated, otherwise I'm going to go and find some 180p videos from 2008 to watch.
Edit @smithsonian, @Weldawadyathink, @scottc
Thabks for your replies, the site looks great for what I'm looking for. I'm not US but they do ship internationally. Plus it will at least help me work out what parts I might need!
