It could even be a youtube video or movie that you don’t think anyone reading this has heard of besides you.

    The Farmers Daughter. It was a text-based video game for the C=64 similar to Zork.

    The premise was that you are a traveling lightening salesman whose car breaks down. You stop at a farmhouse to use their phone, and the beautiful daughter answers the door.

    Your mission is to try to bang her. If the farmer catches you, he shoots you with his shotgun. If her brothers catch you, they’ll analy rape you to death. You need condoms but they are stuck to the shelf.

        The appeal of games like this is so odd to me. They’re moronic on one hand but viscerally addictive on the other. A very interesting psychological dynamic going on with this whole genre.

          It’s no mystery if you consider the world at the time and the target audience.

          Home computers were only a couple of years past where you had to solder the chips on yourself and still in nerdy kid domain.

          There was a big overlap with the Dungeons and Dragans crowd. Puzzles and imagining yourself as some character were a huge appeal.

          Now factor in that the underwear section of the Sears catalog was still the closest thing to porn as most 12 year olds could get their hands on.
