so i was talking to my grandmother about old-school video games and she was all

“y'know there was one game i used to play, and it had like a maze, and it was underground, and there was a guy in first person and he had a weapon”

so knowing her penchant for puzzle games, i started guessing like myst, or legend of grimrock

so we start hunting through these 90’s-era games featuring dungeon crawls.

turns out. it was not a puzzle game. it was nothing close to a puzzle game. apparently, in the mid-90s, my grandmother would sit down and play fucking Wolfenstein 3D and listen to AC/DC for like hours on end.

Au contraire, the puzzle was “how to kill Nazis” and the answer was “use gun”
