This was a big year for The Obscuritory! A few highlights from 2018:
Two panels: one at Super MAGFest 2018 about game preservation with Frank Cifaldi, Shannon Symonds, and Rachel Donahue; and one at Awesome Con 2018 about the role of fangames and hacks in gaming culture.
I managed to find a copy of Secret Writer’s Society, an educational game that was pulled from shelves for a scandalous, terrible bug, and,
with help from some readers, finally figured out the story of what happened.
Enigma, the absurd puzzle game that no one will likely ever complete.
That is a lot, and there’s still more! I’m incredibly proud of what I’ve done with The Obscuritory this year, and I’m thrilled about where it’s gonna go in 2019. The year kicks off with a bang with the video game history panel track at Super MAGFest. And then I have a lot more things I want to share.
