I remember playing ROBOT ODISSEY, a great game by a company named The
Learning Company (I think they still exist, but I am sure they don't carry
this game any longer). I used to play it on my Apple II, and then they
released a  PC version as well. It was a very nice game, where we had to
build specific digital circuits - and ICs! - to control some robots and
achieve certain goals inside the maze we were trapped in. Great fun.

Do any of you still have this game in a playable version? Or maybe a similar
game?

Hehe, I'm in a similar boat. Being an employee of one of the largest video
card makers in the world people often ask me my opinion on our cards and
video games in general. When I can't even offer an opinion they are always a
little bewildered! In fact, of the people I work with, very FEW play video
games.

It's strange how the people in the hardware side of the industry don't seem
to have much interest in video games anymore, at least in my experience.
