Kayleigh's Retro Isolation

One good thing that has come from this whole Covid malarkey is the opportunity to introduce Kayleigh to a selection of 126 retro games which I grew up playing during my childhood and young adult years.  "Kayleigh's Retro Isolation" came to an end a few weeks ago, and we only touched a small selection of my games, but she enjoyed it so much.  It's refreshing to know that even though she is from a generation that is used to playing games with fancy graphics on our PlayStation 4 and 5, she can still enjoy those retro classics with their primitive graphics (but awesome gameplay!)  

I look forward to introducing her to many more games from my collection (just without the lockdown).

Duke Nukem 3D on PC


"I really like this game.  Dad let me play the levels he created when he was younger, and they're great fun 8 ½ / 10"

Coincidently, it's Duke Nukem 3D's 25th anniversary today, (29th Jan 1996) and despite the game being originally rated 18, the most it deserves now is a PG!
