back in the windows 8 era, i thought windows 8 was actually really magical and cool even if the ui was uncomfortable
i remember my computer had windows 8 preinstalled and it came with a couple of really interesting and fun games, some of them feeling surprisingly native to this "new platform" that microsoft was trying to build with the full screen uwp applications, like Adera, god that game was awesome...
i also remember this shark game which was very fun and had this fun old mobile game vibe, like "where's my water?" and others.
my brother's favorite was a space pinball one which was clearly a reference to windows xp's space cadet pinball lol, it was extremely fun!
and lastly, i remember making beats in that one cool app for making music which let you download sample packs and put them together and change chords and all
