I think that was part of the fascination of PC:s as a kid. Police Quest or Civilization and so on. It was this kind of adult world that you knew little of and were exploring on your own, or with your friends. The games were not holding your hand. It often was game over. But you could try again. Also, your parents were never involved in any way (except financing the thing). The audience of PC games was different than console games. They expected more from the player. Sometimes it was frustrating, but often times I think one learned something. Also one had to use the dictionary sometimes. There were also less other things competing for their attention so kids had more persistence... |
