When I was in highschool I had a girl go on and on about how much she loved Star Wars. I was into Star Trek and thought she was trying to annoy me. After graduation I he friends told me she was into me and wanted to hang out.

I had a different girl ask me to teach her D&D. I invited her and one of my friendliest players over and proceeded to run a simple session. She didn’t seem to want to learn the rules but kept asking me questions and listening to me intently. She basically ignored the other player. I finished that session super confused. Later she asked me to come to her house to see her new bikini top and it all clicked.

Blackmist,

Was it a nice top?

confusedbytheBasics,

It was… flattering.

OP did you not know about this? youtu.be/kIUlmuEtgkY?si=1w3yfJZ0WtzT_vWQ

I did not, but it looks like it came out in the 90s and Battle Chess came out in the 80s.

KuroiKaze,

I hope you are appropriately blown away by watching C3P0 kill Darth Vader

Well, FDru did not mention what kind of data. For biological data the answer is correct. /s

Venator,

Except that he did specify saved data.

Oh man, what a game. I remember playing it as a kid.

Man, I don’t know why, but I remember the animations from this game. I think maybe my dad had an old demo of it?

ColeSloth,

It was ported to everything in the late 80s, nes included, so it wouldn’t surprise me. 7 year old me totally sucked at the fighting.

I’d remember playing this on Nintendo when I was around 7 years old. My cool ass already knew how to play chess for a year or so, but I would absolutely bomb it during the fights.

My brother and I would set the other up just so we could see new cut scenes!

Pawns don’t often take queens and kings without a little help.

Think of all the effort you spent when you could have just waited 36 years to watch a video compilation instead.

It doesn’t seem to say, but I think that’s the MS-DOS version.

I don’t know if they ever made a color Mac version. I definitely don’t remember if that one was in color because I eventually got the MS-DOS version and I can’t remember if they were the same.

But this is a video I can find for the Mac version: www.youtube.com/watch?v=StKlUtx5tHg

Weirdly, there was a color version for the Apple IIgs: www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXnAcUAN0W4

Every version was different. This is the Amiga version: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADcEI84wMX0

I had this on the commodore Amiga. It was an absolute classic.

Worked great on my LC II!

carl_dungeon,

That was my first computer! I wanted this game so bad back then, never had it. I’ll have to spin it up on my os-9’ed g4 Mac mini, hopefully it still runs in 9, most things I’ve tried do.

While also setting up the sturdiest traps humanity has ever seen. They didn’t get set off once in thousands of years.

The rook taking pieces was my favorite thing! We had it for the Amiga.

It’s actually kind of cool to get an idea of what the town looked like when it was normal.

Girls are nerds too. They won’t admit it if you make it dangerous to do so. Like say, gatekeeping, calling them not true fans, pretending they don’t exist and leaving passive aggressive remarks when someone shares a story involving one.

Masta_Chief,

Careful, you’re making too much sense on the internet
