Wow, can you believe it? Ruin is celebrating its 35th anniversary! Even though it was released before I was born, the impact of this legendary RPG is still felt today. To commemorate this milestone, Official Electric has unveiled a special 35th-anniversary edition of Ruin, spread out across just four floppy disks. However, it's important to note that Ruin isn't exactly what it seems. The actual game being discussed is Ruin: Chapter 0, an interactive fiction game reminiscent of classic ZX Spectrum games but with a modern twist. Be warned, though - this game is filled with glitches and flashing imagery. Playable in your browser, Ruin: Chapter 0 follows the story of a knight on a quest to retrieve a sword and vanquish evil. Despite my efforts, I keep getting defeated by the villains, who taunt me with a "get owned" message every time I fail. How rude! Watch on YouTube As the game progresses, it transforms into a sci-fi adventure spanning multiple planets. You'll find yourself running through forests, timing clicks on apples, and even taking smoke breaks. The attention to detail is impressive, from unpacking devil sticks to lighting them up and taking a drag. Ruin: Chapter 0 seamlessly blends different gameplay styles, creating a unique and immersive experience. From traditional RPG elements to first-person point-and-click mechanics, Ruin: Chapter 0 offers a diverse gaming experience. It's almost like watching an animated movie unfold before your eyes. The game's enigmatic nature invites players to unravel its mysteries and explore its depths, sparking curiosity and intrigue. While Ruin may not be a real 35-year-old IP, it certainly captures the essence of a legendary game. Experience Ruin: Chapter 0 on itch.io and embark on a unique gaming journey.
