Pooyan

1987, Age 5

Pooyan was a game that my brother had for his Tandy Color Computer 2, with which I was absolutely fascinated. I recall being addicted to the music, and because the characters were all animals, I was immediately attached. My brother would never let me play this game, claiming I was too little to "get the controls," so I had to be content to watch. This probably just added to the mystique of the game for me, now that I think about it. (Several years ago for Christmas, my brother found and emulator and rom of Pooyan for me as a gift. It was in Portugese, but it still had that addictive music, so it was all good).
