    Chess
    Chess is one of the first games I remember playing. My grandparents taught me how to play, but I was usually more interested in looking at the carved chess pieces than playing.

  • Burnout 3: Takedown

    Burnout 3: Takedown
    I loved playing this game with my Dad on our PS2 at the time - although I remember playing it muted because it had some interesting dialogue that my 4-year-old self shouldn't hear.

  • Minecraft PE Lite

    Minecraft PE Lite
