Oh honey, this is the ULTIMATE nostalgia bomb for anyone who learned to code when dinosaurs roamed the earth and modems sang their beautiful 56k songs! We've got Windows Solitaire (the OG procrastination tool), Space Cadet Pinball (because who needs actual physics engines?), MS Paint (where EVERY artist was born), and Minesweeper (the game that taught us Boolean logic without even knowing it).
These weren't just games—they were SURVIVAL TOOLS for baby programmers waiting for their 10-line "Hello World" program to compile. You'd click run, alt-tab to Pinball, get a high score, come back, and your code STILL wasn't done compiling. The pre-Stack Overflow era was WILD, y'all. You either figured it out yourself or you perished. No tutorials, no GitHub copilot, just you, your floppy disk, and pure determination!
