In context the comment is off topic, as the post is about a PC game, but I just love that someone was ridiculous enough to put together a VHS choose-your-adventure.
How many games like this can a VHS tape survive?
The game referenced above: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Treβ¦
"The A.V. Club notes that, in the 1980s and 1990s, VCR-based games came closer to offering audiences "immersive, interactive audio-visual experience" in a novel way."
It wasn't the only one! Amazing.
Now I want to make a card/board game with QR codes to videos. π
