Abandonware DOS title

Games Magazine Game of the Year award

Games Magazine was a well-known American publication primarily focused on puzzles and games rather than video games. It first launched in 1977, and its content included a range of puzzles such as crosswords, logic puzzles, word games, and other types of brainteasers. Each issue featured a mix of interactive puzzles and articles about different types of games, including board games, card games, and tabletop games.
While it wasn't specifically about video games, Games Magazine did sometimes cover them, especially as video gaming became more popular.
The winners of the Games magazine Game of the Year award are chosen by Games editors.
