I of course was just kidding above.

However, Wordstar (included anagram program and such) might be a possibility

Interesting clues......i keep thinking of all the games i've played that just didnt feel like a game

Maybe like a simulation or something.......or a kids edutainment title.......tricky

aha - how about The Quill? it was one of the first 'build your own adventure' type programs that came with an intro game?

link with info on the Quill(googled 'quill adventure creator'):

I'll remind you this is Name the Game, not Name the Program that wasn't really a game in the truest sense of the Word.

tsk.....so harsh....so soon! ZargonX might win through in the last round, so we can give him the benefit of the doubt no?

[DrSpike]

I'm sure it's a game really, I'm just pulling his leg.

[child of Thor]

I thought you were too
So have you got a guess? i'm feeling quite pleased with the Quill, although i suspect its not right

[DrSpike]

No, I am a gaming expert, not a pseudo-game expert.

[child of Thor]

shocking! hows the Sims going?

[DrSpike]

To answer that I recommend waiting until Sunday and asking your wife/mother/sister/niece.

[child of Thor]

ah....so you're still in the denial stages i see. It will pass with time, then the truth can come forth

I cant do another guess can i? i was thinking of something like 'Big Birds Adventure' ..........

[DrSpike]

No, you can't.

Big bird's adventure

Excel ?

Well it had a flight sim in it (sort of) and however much fun spreadsheets can be they don't count as games.
