Heyyy time to see if the benefit of 10 years helps me complete Uplink.
Comment on What games can you recommend that didn't get the appreciation that they deserved?

Uplink - A hacking sim game that’s actually quite addictive in a playthrough. Will make you feel like you’re in the movie Hackers.
[Spycraft: The Great Game] (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spycraft:_The_Great_Game) - An adventure game that had as consultants CIA director William Colby and KGB Major-General Oleg Kalugin.
I don’t know a lot of people that have played these, but they definitely rank up there for me as some of the more interesting and unique games I’ve played over the decades.

Shoutout to Uplink! Not something you look to for realism, but it’s a really well designed hacker sim. Lots of fun!

Played Uplink as a kid, later learned about fragmentation for computer memory. Was cool to find out the inventory system wasn’t just a cool game mechanic but was based off how actual memory works.
