ELI5 ?
They 3d printed the save icon
Honestly I haven't even seen it used as a save icon in a long time
I see it fairly often though usually in indie games with retro aesthetics.
Zork is a text-based adventure game first released in 1977
Old-school adventure game, one of the OG. I think it was CoD BlackOps 1 where one of the secrets was breaking out of your chair in the main menu, being able to walk over to a pc....and literally play the whole of Zork!
Macintosh is an apple variant.
Do you mean like Sylvie is a variant of Loki ?
5 y.o. would not understand that.
I wonder how long it will be before this is known by everyone as a save icon instead of a floppy disc
I had this on the 5 1/4" disk. The kind that actually was floppy.
I never finished that damn game lol. I should probably give it another go one of these days.
I never figured out what the eventual goal was. I remember solving various puzzles, like opening the gates to hell, getting through the maze of twisty passages, killing the troll, etc. But I don't remember ever figuring out what the win condition was supposed to be.
You can carry it around in your phone nowadays!

I have an immense urge to fwap the little metal thing back and forth until my mom tells me I’m wrecking it.

- Grue
I went through a phase in middle / high school where grues were constantly appearing in any story or program I made... Great times
It's getting dark
