The game Wordle has taken the internet by storm, because everyone loves to show off their vocabulary and/or deductive reasoning skills. Word games have been around for almost as long as language itself, so it's not too far-fetched to imagine the game Wordle as a computer game from the 1980s. Back then we were astonished at the technology that brought us games we could play right there on our home computer. Thirty-seven years later, that amazing technology seems laughably quaint, not to mention difficult and cumbersome. Squirrel Monkey shows us what Wordle would have looked like back then.
Oh dear. While you might delight in the nostalgia that those tones bring, we would never want to go back to the days of dial-up internet and dot matrix printers. The bonus in this video is the demonstration of game play from a narrator who just isn't good at the game. Not at all. -via Boing Boing
