"Let’s recap for newcomers to the Sims universe:
You play some sort of detached cursor that sees to the needs of a little family of Sims. They, like normal people, will need to eat, sleep, have relationships, go to work, earn money, spend money, go to the loo, and ultimately die. By paying careful attention to a Sim’s specific needs you can tell them when to have lunch, and when to take a bath.
It sounds rather mundane, looking after someone else’s life when your own is probably more in need of attention, yet it has to be one of the most addictive game series available today. Sales charts will back me up here: there is almost always a ‘Sims’ title in the top-sellers list, and often more than one at a time."

The Sims franchise has been a part of my life ever since the first game came out. It was one of two games I camped outside of a store for, the other one being Black & White.
Maybe you've got a favorite game from the olden days you never get rid of. Maybe you're a scrupulous uninstaller and you don't have anything from before 2013 on your pristine PC. Maybe you've got something from the 1990s taking up several whole megabytes you completely forgot about.
Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis.
I did have Loom but I didn't like it.
I've been replaying a bunch of old adventure games, lately. I had been playing a bunch of text adventures, but those are uninstalled now. At the moment, the oldest thing I have installed is Sierra's Police Quest Collection. When I'm done with that, I'll be moving on to Space Quest, Quest for Glory, and finishing with the best: King's Quest.
