eobet<p>Feast your eyes on this absolutely gorgeous Japanese artistic interpretation of the otherwise comically childish game which is <strong>The Horde</strong>. Rarely mentioned but well worth experiencing if not only for the live action filler videos! 🐄 <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/RetroGaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RetroGaming</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/DOSGaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DOSGaming</span></a> <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/BigBoxGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BigBoxGames</span></a></p>

vga256<p>a few years ago i bought a box of old PC games locally.</p><p>one of the games was Ultima V. </p><p>today i finally had a chance to go through its contents, and inside i found a thick coil notebook, full of notes, written by its owner "Brent" about 30 years earlier.</p><p>he judiciously took notes on every location, npc, spell, reagent and quest in the game.</p><p>here's to you brent 🍻 </p><p>i absolutely love these very personal ephemera i sometimes find in old games.</p><p><a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/ultima" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ultima</span></a> <a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/bigboxgames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bigboxgames</span></a> <a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/msdos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>msdos</span></a> <a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/dosgaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>dosgaming</span></a></p>
