Feeling Brave Tonight? Back in 1993, TSR released the now infamous board game Dragonstrike. Inside the game was a 30-minute VHS tape to introduce kids to roleplaying, the rules, and theming. The game was a good introduction to younger-brothers and newbies into the game. But the video is an... show more

Ultimate cheese — even more so than Dragon Strike, but I would've loved to play it. I wonder what the boards would've looked like and what kind of strange mechanics it might've added?

Hmm... It's like every cheese in every cheesy 1980s movie with of course a high fantasy/sword and sorcery theme... AND I'd love to see it legit. Just as people make "Retro" games - say matching the aesthetics of classic arcade games in various bit eras - or PS1 (very low poly but high texture) or N64 (High poly low texture) aesthetics maybe we need some "Retro Cheese" 1980s style fantasy movies...? Only thing that's come around is "Your Highness" and that was a parody - but had me and a friend laughing till our sides hurt since we remembered fondly even the cheezy from the 1980s. Such movies could be made SO - cheap - just hire so-so 'actors', put them in costumes, have a neat home computer with software to kind of match them chromakey into 3D backgrounds... Price of one modern movie could make dozens of these to then flood onto TV, cable, internet subscription services... And Xers getting older would pay for it - kind of a Hallmark channel for Xers (1980s nostalgia) vs what Hallmark is; Boomers + conservative escapist niche

I went to Gencon 93 and remember TSR pushing Dragonstrike. The response was crickets. All of the interest was in LARPing with White Wolf, playing first-person shooters like Doom, or (I kid you not) VR headsets. I went home thinking the age of the TTRPG was over. Glad to be wrong.

Robocop the movie was made into an equally impressive Commodore 64 game...with an issue! Released in 1988 by Ocean Software, it was infamous for being rushed out incomplete. On Level 4 (the warehouse/factory stage), the game hits a massive bug where the graphics become completely corrupted and the level is nearly impossible to finish. Developers reportedly lowered the time limit on purpose so most players would never reach the broken part. That aside it was an awesome game, Zzap!64 magazine rated it a solid 89% and described it as "Good blasting fun from the outset. It's tough but it'll keep you hooked" Despite the bugs, the game has excellent visuals for the C64, Robocop himself has great sprite work and the music by Jonathan Dunn, top notch. Are you a fan of this game, did it give the movie the props it deserved? Finally, did you somehow manage to complete it?

Eagles coach Coach Rasool on Maxx Crosby and Brock Bowers : "It would be hard to tell the difference between them in practice and in a game. It looks the same. It always looked like the fourth quarter. Or the first snap of the game. Or the game-winning play. Max wanted to win at everything he did. He could be playing pool, a video game, cards and you'd have thought it was to break a record in the NFL. You'd have thought it was to go to the Super Bowl."

The Royal Game of Ur .... For 4600 years, a mysterious game slept in the dust of southern Iraq, largely forgotten. The passion of a museum curator and the hunger of young Iraqis for their cultural history may bring it back.... The original name of this ancient game has been lost to time, but it was dubbed the Royal Game of Ur after a British archaeologist named Sir Leonard Woolley uncovered five worn playing boards in 1928 at the Royal Cemetery of the Sumerian city of Ur. Analysts estimated that the highly decorated boards, made of wood, inlaid shell and lapis lazuli, were made between 2600-2400 BC, making the Royal Game of Ur the oldest complete tabletop game ever discovered. Archaeological evidence suggests that the game (Game of 20 Squares) was immensely popular with people of all classes. The boards were carried all over the Middle East and sometimes scratched into clay or rock, if no board was available by soldiers, missionaries, explorers and traders, who introduced it to Iran, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon, Sri Lanka, Cyprus and Crete. Variations of the game have been found in King Tutankhamen’s tomb, and etched into pillars in the palace of the Assyrian king Sargon II. For at least 1000 years, the Royal Game of Ur was the national game of ancient Mesopotamia, but it waned in popularity as other games were developed, including those that most likely evolved from it, such as backgammon. Mentions of the game disappeared in the Middle Ages, but a variation, called Aasha, was played by the Jewish people of Kochi, in India. Jews of Kochi had migrated from ancient Babylonia and brought a version of the game with them. The 1928 discovery of the Royal Game of Ur gave scholars an important cultural glimpse into how the ancient Mesopotamians entertained themselves, but there was one problem: The boards did not come with an instruction manual, and that meant that modern-day scholars had no idea how the game worked. In 1980s, Dr. Irving Finkel (a curator and Assyriologist at British Museum), translated a cuneiform script on a crumbling clay tablet that had been brought to the museum by an antiquities dealer. The document sounded remarkably like the rules of an ancient game. The clay tablet written in 177-176 BC by a scribe named Itti-Marduk-balatu, tablet was discovered around 1880 in the ruins of Babylon, according to an academic paper written by Dr. Finkel. “The tablet included a grid on one side,” he wrote, “and two columns of closely written text on the other, adding his name and the date at the end of the inscription.” British Museum bought the relic shortly after it was found and cataloged it. Scholars tried to decipher the cuneiform over the years, but it was Dr. Finkel who was able to identify the text on the tablet as instructions on how to play the Royal Game of Ur after comparing it to the other game boards the museum had stored in its archives. Babylonian tablet revealed that the game is race between two players to get their markers around and off the board. Pyramid-shaped dice are used to indicate the number of squares a player can move, but strategy is involved as well: If a player lands on a square occupied by their opponent, they can knock that marker off, and the opponent must start over again with that piece. That can set a player back by quite a bit, and it is almost impossible to predict who will win, even near the end of the game. But there was another aspect of the game that attracted people: It was said to tell a player’s fortune. According to the cuneiform tablet, some of the marked squares on the board were assigned signs of the zodiac and, with them, predictions that a player would win a beer, make a friend, eat well, or perhaps become powerful and wealthy. #archaeohistories

BATTLESHIP was released 14 years ago today. The film was based on the classic board game despite the original game having almost no story, forcing the filmmakers to build an alien-invasion blockbuster around the simple idea of naval combat.

The Game Boy was a massive hit, but to be honest, I was always more jealous of the friends who had a Game Gear. Even though it drained batteries quickly, its game quality was on a completely different level compared to the Game Boy. In reality, most people used rechargeable AA batteries or an AC adapter, so the battery issue wasn’t as big of a problem as many people think. The real issue was the price. I played Streets of Rage again recently, and it’s still a great game today.

I’d like to introduce Last Bronx, a Sega fighting game released after the Virtua Fighter and Fighting Vipers series. Unlike hand-to-hand combat games, it features a weapon-based fighting concept similar to Samurai Spirits. For some reason, though, it lacked the level of polish seen in Sega’s other titles and failed to gain widespread popularity. However, the Saturn version of the game was well made compared to other ports and was received quite positively.
