Yay! Abandonia Birthday!
For those of us who long for games from many years ago.
For games of space and tigers, or games of spells and swords. For games we know, and games we don’t, and games we thought were only dreams. We need look no further than Abandonia. And that is Awesome. (Sorry it sounds so pretentious, but you get the gist. I like abandonia! Happy 12th birthday!) |

It's like when people say, "I liked Twilight before the movies came out!" well I played old games before GOG started, and it's all thanks to Abandonia. At a time in my life when new games no longer worked on my PC, this site saved me!

I like Abandonia because it has brought (and is still bringing) me back to the games that redefined my childhood, and the games I haven’t played that are defining my life now. I originally found this site for ONE game, but it’s the community that made me want to stay.

I love it because it helps me to bring old memories back and I can have fun!
I hate it because I feel myself so old... I love it because I can translate the descriptions my favorite games! I hate it because I can't write my opinions in the descriptions... I know I won't win but this is how I feel! Anyway, !!! |

Why do I love Abandonia? Well the answer is simple, memories. Not only does Abandonia let me relive some of my most fond memories of the good old days, it has also given me plenty more from industry changing games that I did not have when I was young.

I love Abandonia as a piece of my soul...
It brings back memories. I'm always happy to see, people didn't forget where it has started. If Abandonia wouldn't be here, I think I wouldn't be the same person... Abandonia, the place for all of Us! Happy birthday! |

We do what we love to do. Because we're the people who volunteer to save the glory of a past gone with the wind, to let the future generations remember our lives filled with simple means of having fun, which we thought couldn't be any better. We want to share the sheer joy of the very first experiences with computer games both in history and in a person's life.

I love abandonia for its mission. To provide old games to those of us that would not have access to them otherwise. I love that when the game is sold, through GOG or some other source it is no longer available here. Also nostalgia.

What Abandonia is to me...
There were games I'd played, and loved. There were games I'd missed, and longed for. But, if it weren't for Abandonia, they'd just be memories, or missed opportunities. If only there were an "Abandonia" for all of life's special moments.
