Die Siedler II was released 30 years ago in Germany on 17th April 1996 for DOS.
Alongside X-Wing and Worms, this was one of the first games that I played for a considerable time and really understood how to play, other than having a turn at platformer or fighting games on a friend's console.

Bunch of kinda criticisms of Wolf 3D in this piece here, but also some interesting insights on playing one handed by using the mouse with sensitivity turned up fully (and of course using a map). I'm so used to keyboard, but thinking now, when I played it on a Mac in the 90s, I may have messed with using a mouse for it some.

Albion was released 30 years ago around the 16th December 1995.
To me, this is one of the most amazing and important games ever released, though I wouldn't say it's a particularly good one. I only actually played it very late, and still only got possibly halfway through it at most, but I've known about since when I first encountered any PC games at all. This is a kind of pulp space fantasy that nobody does anymore.

Still just blown away that John Calhoun, the guy who made Glider (and several other games in this post on Mac games I'm researching and writing) is still active online with his blog/site https://www.engineersneedart.com and he's put a bunch of the old Soft Dorothy stuff over at GitHub: https://github.com/EngineersNeedArt/SoftDorothy-UnfinishedTales-Vol1.
Also, shout out to @setsideb who wrote about John and his projects a while back here: https://setsideb.com/john-calhouns-lost-mac-games

Finally working a bit more on the post about old Mac Performa games. I started it around this time last year. Takes a bunch of research, etc, is why, I wanna have emulation links, etc. And of course I play each a little. It's a blast, really. If you want me to tag you when I post it, lmk here.. I still have the older post where I'd talked about it and those folks are in, too- but just to be sure I don't miss you. Hope I finish it soon (eventually)😂

The Dig was released 30 years ago in November 1995.
General opinions of the game seem to be that it's a decent but not remarkable LucasArts point and click adventure. But the visual and audio presentation of this game have long made it one I really want to play, but I still never got around to.

Phantasmagoria was released 30 years (and a bit) ago on 24th August 1995.
(I didn't have this one on my list and just noticed it now.)
I never played it, but from what I heard about it, it was very ambitious.

Diablo II came out for Windows on June 28, 1997, and it was a Big Deal to 17 year old me and my friends. It was mindblowing then, and it still is. I don't love it as much as the first and never will, but it introduced some wild new aspects to the game. Even Diablo III and IV owe greatly to II.

Star Wars: Dark Forces was (probably*) released 30 years ago on 28th February 1995.
(There are four different release dates in circulation on the internet, but 28th February seems the most probable.)

Did NOT know the 90s Mac game Glypha got a modern remake that's now on Steam, 'Glypha Vintage'!
Glypha was a 90s Mac clone of Joust, and when I was a kid, this is one of the Mac games I was hooked on when the family got a Performa (I'm currently working on a blog post on my favorite 90s Mac games).
This is wild -- thanks to @1Bit for tipping me off to it!

Actually, you should check out a 1990s #LucasArts game called "The Dig."
I'm not a gamer, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I'm guessing it's on archive.org. Probably playable right there on the browser, although #DosBox might be a better experience.
