Field notes
The site says the game runs in an ordinary browser but imitates a BBC Micro program, with eight colours, blocky pictures, text prompts, and typed answers. Its time machine connects the chapters to 24 games dated 1972–2026, and the site describes each chapter as about 20 minutes. The creators say they made it for their daughters; the extracted page does not include a gameplay capture to independently assess the experience.
