This is great!
Of possible interest to Mefites - Caper in the Castro, first known LGBTQ game from 1989.

Far out. Bob Stein on the Voyager Company. There's a generalized subcategory called multimedia about the whole interactive-content-on-physical-media tech blip.

I still have the Residents disc they did, amazing and in in glorious 640x480.

I played that listed Frogger PSX title back in the day and frankly it’s good.

Damn. I would have loved Majestic if I had ever known it existed. This looks like a fun site. I've browsed around a bit and I'm yet to hit a single title I've heard of.

Wonderful site.

And God but I loved Majestic. It nearly got me fired from my first job when the faxes freaked out our office administrator.

This is excellent!

I flipped through a few pages until stumbling on Enigma, which I recall spending some real time on in college. I believe, because it was a game that ran on Linux.

I haven't thought about this game in many years, but now I know what I'm doing tomorrow...
