Ramblings of a Programmer

Meaningful Games

This list was inspired by a friends list of favorite games and I figured I’d at least get started on curating my own list. This list is not necessarily my favorite games, or even games that I particularly enjoy - but they all will have had some meaning towards my life as a game developer.

  • Age of Empires II (PC)

  • Viper Racing (PC, 1998, Monster Games Inc)

  • Live for Speed (PC)
