Yay!

I was looking at an old issue the other day and thinking I should re-subscribe. I have enjoyed Games (on and off) since getting a gift subscription as a kid from some intellectual friends of my parents. I think it was in the late 70s... I distinctly recall getting their 2nd anniversary / 13th issue. Games is also where I first discovered D&D, around the same time. I used to make my sister play with me, we'd draw dungeon maps in chalk on the driveway. Not bad for a couple of (pre-teen) kids.

Wow they're still around? I haven't even thought about them in years. Cool!

It disappeared for a while in the late '80s, but has been pretty steady since then. Wikipedia has a short history.
