Hypercard would be a perfect fit for the iPad and iPhone.
Imagine it!
Imagine the things you could build.
But we aren't allowed to have computers that are fun to use, that are easy to build for, that are human centric, or human literate.
Just saw a cross-stitch that said "Warning: this is proof I have the patience to stab something 1000 times."
Having played almost a majority of these games, I agree with their alignment choices. https://mastodon.sdf.org/media/oU4yqzbVcuiKuUqJBvA
Target exclusive. $25! Just like the Apple II version, but maybe a bit more color and almost better sound. Has an on-screen keyboard for entering your dog's name as one of the soon-to-be-dead travellers, and the separate diagonals add an extra challenge to hunting. Everything is here, even saving progress.
Watch Jeopardy tonight, if you get a chance. You won't regret it.
@fuuko Thank you. It would be great if you made the distinction that SDF has continually operated since 1987. There is evidence of ted ('iczer') playing around with the BBS idea as early as 1985, but we celebrate June 16th, 1987 as SDF's birthday and when the first 214-352-xxxx dialup number for SDF was published. This happens to be Ted's birthday and the phone line was a gift to him from his mother.
Fanfic I want to read: Greek epics crossover to sci-fi & fantasty.
For instance:

Gimme!
old japanese computers are incredible tbh
