IMGUR blocks UK users then smugly directs you to their GDPR form rigged with impossible demands!

After they VERIFIED MY EMAIL, demanded:

- To describe any private images (in a 10+ year old account I barely used)
- Last login location (was I on VPN?)

I made a real effort to answer, but they replied passive-aggressively, acting like I was the one being difficult!

Left me no choice but to file an ICO complaint. What is this nonsense? Anyone else stuck?

Sierra's King's Quest I (SCI engine) was the first adventure game I've ever played. It came in a big box with a manual and 3 3.5 inch floppy disks.

There is a fan-made remake with improved graphics, sound and full voice over! It can be downloaded for free at https://www.agdinteractive.com/games/kq1/index.html

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (1992) is one of my favourite adventure games. It had a great story and it's a shame they didn't adapt this into a movie.

The Expanse is well worth watching if you're into #SciFi and #SpaceOpera. It has some of the most realistic space battles I've ever seen.

Rick Dangerous (1989)

I played this game on DOS in the 90s. The game designer was Simon Phipps. He shares some interesting trivia in his website https://www.simonphipps.com/games/rickdangerous/
