Ten Childhood Games.

Okay, i transferred this up and over from my journal - good thing too, afterall, there's much to be desired from the handwriting.

Game I.
Hopscotch!
I enjoyed the challenge of maintaining my balance with less space to navigate on the "grid".

Game II.
Hide & Seek! and Catching!
The thrill of running for an excellent hiding spot before the catcher/seeker.
Recommend only play it with good/trusted friends. Otherwise you may hide for ages on end, praising yourself for being so good at hiding/running [respectively] when in actual fact...

Game III.
Chatek!
The challenge of balancing on one foot and keeping the er, "shuttlecock" in the air - even though i can't and end up humiliating myself playing it.

Game IV.
Starcraft!
Yeah, this is to me a childhood game because it was one of the first computer games i learned to play - primary one i think. My dad taught me how to play [with cheats :p] and i proceeded to keep playing and fooling around. It also probably nurtured some fantasy concepts in my head.

Game IV.
Soccer!
It was one of my better sports and i played pretty well - i loved it, and i have scars that testify i played alot of the sport. I'm not such a fan anymore though, nor do i care about soccer teams and the like. Not my kinda thing anymore.

Game V.
Drawn Adventures!
My friends in primary one and two would draw mazes filled with monsters and dragons and tanks, and we would play the game on our way back home [on the schoolbus]. We also did some kiddy roleplaying. Im not sure how to describe it, but it was just. Fun. Afterall we technically didnt really even have any online games we played just yet.

Game VI.
Self Designed "Gamebooks"!
This, is the "upgraded" version of the above childhood "Game" and we designed from "MMORPGs" to "RTS" games on BOOKS. Dreamed of, written on book, designed on book, drawn on book, played on book. It was really popular as it was one of the few things we could do [no one really played gameboys during that time too in my school] - and i still keep those books. We tried to get each other to "register" but usually we never played the game properly, but hell, it was still fun designing etc. It kinda died out in primary six though, because during that time everyone was more into playing with gameboys and computer games. Odd, considering i was one of the few who played computer games at primary 1 - that or my school was just weird.

Game VII.
Erasers! [Flipping and Spinning Tops]
We used to buy "country erasers" or rather those rectangular erasers from the bookshop to play with, trying to design them into cool spinning tops or erasers for flipping about. It kinda became betting after people started talking about the "claim" rule where if you fought someone in a flipping match and lost, you lost the eraser you used. School of course tried to put a stop to it. Fat chance. It didnt die down at ALL. Hell, people had extra PENCILCASES FULL of them. Oh well.

Game VIII.
Paper Shuriken, Planes and Crushgears!
We folded these into existance, stapling on new parts, removing parts to get the best of each and designed them to the best of our extents. I can say alot of foolscap paper was lost to this.

Game IX.
Pokemon!
Really now, if this wasnt part of your childhood games, something is WRONG with you. GO. PLAY ONE. NOWWW. OwO

Game X.
Card Games!
Pokemon cards mostly, the TCG. I ended up being the only player by primary 4. People started playing Yu-gi-oh by then, and i couldnt afford any decks. Hell, i had to earn for that ONE pokemon card deck. Then nobody played. Blast.

That'll be ten childhood games, i guess.

Ciao.
