I learned how to navigate by compass and map from Arma on the account of you kind of need to, to play certain game modes.

I have never learned shit from "educational" games because they all fail at being games. They're tests with some graphics added, that shit is boring and nobody cares, there's no incentive.

Under FALGSOC, every game would teach you at least one skill

EDIT: I learned Sneaking from Gothic because to sneak in that game you have some guy explaining it to you and that came in very handy as a teenager

    You say this, but like all the Humongous Games edutainment games ruled. Pajama Sam, Putt Putt, Spy Fox, Freddi Fish... Classics!

      Spy Fox lives rent free in my head to this day. I remember its puzzles because they all made perfect sense - stuff like learning the "scissors" martial art to beat the guy who bragged about being a master of the "paper" martial art - which isn't something you can say about most point and click adventure games lmao.
