LargeHadron posted:Some unknown number of years ago, I found a puzzle game that's played in the web browser. Hard to explain what I mean...not a webpage that launches a game, but a webpage that *is* the game. I remember the vibe being kind of creepy, and you get these little clues about where to click on the page. At one point I had to modify the URL based on some clue, and that took me to the next step, etc. was it notpron?

Pretty sure that's Moraff's Ultra Blast man, I had some massive shareware collection of moraffware games as a kid. there were like, tons of puzzle games and way too many varieties of mahjong tile matching games. it was great.

sort of asking for my dad; between us both we can't remember what the heck this game was called. he played it a ton in the 90s, it was a turn-based strategy map game kind of thing, with online multiplayer -- i'm pretty sure it was play-by-email and games would go for multiple days. it was historical i think (like, as opposed to fantasy/scifi i mean -- i remember there were tanks) i'm pretty sure it was a free game he downloaded, and not something he bought. iirc the graphics were a little primitive, or at least 2d/flat. i know this is barely anything to go off of.  i was pretty young.

here's another one from my dad: some kind of browser-based puzzle game where you're playing as a little guy, and you're trying to find your spaceship? he distinctly remembers some kind of lever-pulling puzzle. and he says it had a very distinct art style, and he thinks it had a french or maybe italian name. he also says he thinks it got a sequel again, i know that isn't a heck of a lot to go off of, but you guys are wizards so maybe you can figure it out.
