Mr.Rubinshtein

games from 1983 to 1990 have some tape images you emulate

Stinkek

This one is 1993 or 1995, I haven't looked into the release date stuff yet

Stinkek

Kinda surreal to think this was made a few years before many of us (including me) were born

Mr.Rubinshtein

Stinkek

I'm from late 1997, so yeah

Stinkek

Wait, wtf? Is the game playing itself AFTER I started playing and left it idling?

yarnfang

Huh?

Stinkek

I started a game, then hid the game's window to talk on here. I come back and find myself in another part of the board

Stinkek

When playing multiplayer, Getafix may appear and tell the players to do something IRL for a little reward or going to jail, like try to touch the screen first or pass the game box to each other until music stops. I guess today's online alternative would be a randomizer website

yarnfang

Yeah, might be possible to have something set up but probably best to just roll a dice on it.

Stinkek

An actual dice? But a dice has 6 sides, while the max possible amount of players is 4

yarnfang

I mean. Could also use an actual D4 yeah but was more thinking a digital one.

Stinkek

Oh, wait, these are all called dice, right?

Filip5011

dice = plural die = singular

Filip5011

but yes, they're all dice

Lepidópterus

Dices

Stinkek

Stinkek

Oh wow, this program supports gamepads and joysticks too

yarnfang

yarnfang

Now this is a die!
