Post any (easily playable on a modern PC) retro game, and the poster above has to go and play it.

Just to quell any confusion, anyone not posting a game rec can be considered to be not taking part, and any game rec post will be considered a reply to the last poster who posted a game.
Feel free to comment and discuss however you see fit.

this is my favourite video game mostly because of sentimental value.
I got it on CD from a games magazine my dad used to bring me, it was one of the few games our shitty computer would run at the time (no hardware accelerated graphics).

I played this throughout my whole childhood and got in love with it's world, gradually advancing through the story as I got smarter and learned english, eventually finishing it in what seemed like a major event in my life. this game is part of me and I swear it has a soul of it's own.

Runner up is Heart of Darkness .

So after three days I played it. Initially hated it, but then I got a feel for the controls and started having fun. Feels like a game you really want to be playing on harder difficulties because your character is very over-powered by default, and enemies kind of just sit there. The idea of playing a fighter jet maybe doesn't clash too well with that Doom model of gameplay, and wandering around those box levels searching for a switch to open the exit feels a bit silly in this context, but I guess I can respect what they were trying to do.

American McGee's Alice
you launch the game from within its sequel, so get the alice madness returns complete edition.

I don't know what this is, other than it's a freeware game from 2006, and at some point past me saw fit to make a note of it, so you can check it out for me.

The plan is to hopefully get people to play things they otherwise wouldn't play, and maybe reinvigorate discussion across the board.
Also a helpful way to beat that feeling of being overwhelmed by choice and not knowing where to start.

Since this anon didn't post a game you both get Qix, any version/port of the orginal is fine.

I played Alice Madness Returns recently so it'll be very easy to play. Been meaning to try this one for a while.

>Qix
I enjoyed this. I've seen it at used game stores several times but never thought to try it myself. I went with Game Boy Qix, but I'm gonna try Neo Qix on PS1 later too.

You get to play the Peruvian classic Sonic the Hedgehog for SNES.

Not that anon, but if you like Qix, try Bizyland on the SNES.
