Check it out!

The Strong National Museum of Play announced the 2019 Video Game Hall of Fame Inductees.

The inductees are: Colossal Cave Adventure, Mortal Kombat, Super Mario Kart and the ubiquitous office distraction pre-social media…Microsoft Solitaire!

About Microsoft Solitaire: Based on a centuries-old card game, Microsoft Solitaire debuted in 1990 on the Windows 3.0 computing platform and became ubiquitous around the world. Since then, Microsoft Solitaire has been distributed on over a billion computers and is now played 35 billion games per year in over 200 markets around the world and is localized into 65 languages. “The game proved that sometimes analog games can be even more popular in the digital world and demonstrated that a market existed for games that appeal to people of all types,” says Jeremy Saucier, assistant vice president for electronic games and interpretation. “In many ways, it helped pave the way for the growth of the casual gaming market that remains so popular today.”
