Tonight @ 7pm CST we'll hurl Ion SHIVs at robots, searching for the Shadow's Lair in Shamus on the Atari 8-bit Home Computer! This "Berzerk"-inspired action adventure game requires exploration and fast reflexes. One of my all-time favs!

Completed another game of the pocket solo dungeon crawler "Tin Helm".

Found the final shard on the 4th floor in a shrine amongst the catacombs, guarded by a skelepede. My Human Marauder's final score was 65 points. Found the shield for the 1st time. No food or energy remaining.

Tonight @ 7pm CST we'll be back in the cockpit of Star Cruiser 7 in Star Raiders on the Atari 8-bit home computer! Mind blowing for a 1979 release, this first-person space combat simulator still holds up with intense action and challenge!

Tonight @ 7PM CDT, we'll continue our adventure in Dragon Warrior on the NES. We've grown to level 9 and bought some new armor. Exploring has revealed a new cave in the east. Should we push for level 10 before braving the darkness below?

Tonight @ 7PM CDT, we'll continue our adventure in Dragon Warrior on the NES. I'm enjoying returning to this classic RPG. Where I once considered it's simplicity a drawback, I'm liking the straightforward gameplay.

Tonight @ 7PM CDT, we'll battle slimes and grind our way through the fantasy lands of Dragon Warrior on the NES! This was one of the first jRPGs to become hugely popular, in part because Nintendo promoted the game so heavily.
