mindmaze was what i played before we had "real" games on the computer, and even after that because nothing else looked like that or had those vibes.

To this day I miss mindmaze, and sometimes think about popping in my old encarta cd to get it back
I might actually try this today with my one remaining computer with a working cd drive
We played Mindmaze a couple years ago. Considerably easier than I remembered. Still fun, though
I remember my wife and I managed to emulate Mindmaze a few years back and while it didn't have the same unlimited mystery as it did when I was a child, it was still a great time. Also, the aesthetic of this game is so strange... Big "Medieval Guys Doing Stuff" energy.
I LIVED in Encarta as a kid, in fact we had several digital encyclopedia that I spent hundreds of hours in; Groiler, Compton, World Book, Dangerous Creatures...
