I spent about an hour figuring out how to get to level 3 when I first got this game as a kid.

Then I spent about a year of non stop playing before me and my brothers finally figured out how to beat the entire thing.

These were the days before the internet and we didn't have access to gaming magazines, comics or even TV shows that showed us how to this. It was all up to us. And the feeling of finally winning felt like we had reached the peak of Mount Everest.

I'm still trying to chase that feeling with games today, but there aren't many that are confident enough to challenge us in the same way.

I love that "peak of mount Everest" moment when you truly feel like you've "beaten" a game rather than "finished" it.

Outer Wilds gave me that sensation
