Did you ever play any of the early online 3D games where you could build your own little spaces? I remember one where you started in a central hub then could move to this endless plane of green space where people had built homes and similar. It was so empty of people yet full of random things. Nightmare material.

early minecraft had that vibe to me, especially the free to play creative mode they had on their website.

Museum Madness had that effect on me.
I kept expecting something to… catch me, felt like I was being watched, that there was some lurking enemy.

damn, there was this horror game that is supposed to emulate spirits inside old games, it may have released and it might be good.
i got to play pirated xwing vs tie fighter with a proper joystick back in the day. good times.

Logitech 3D Pro.
TIE Fighter, G Police, Sim Copter… all the eay through the Battlefields up to 4, Arma 3, various flight sims.
I genuinely have no idea how that thing has lasted an actual 20 years with minimal drift.

they definitely aren’t building anything like they used to anymore. planned obsolescence and stuff.
i spent what felt like 1000s of hours on sim copter and sim city 2000. it was so cool being able to build the city and fly it too back then.

Name one creepy thing about Zork?
Wait a minute, I’m being told there’s a Gru at the door that needs to speak to me
