    These are great games being brought back in a new era. Great for those who have not played before or just want to relive the classics.

    Love being able to play these on the go. Played the originals on PC many years ago and still fun to replay all these years later!

    What a great idea to bring this to a console! I played these games originally when in college and shortly after. Game management is tough as there aren't unlimited save slots like on the old PC version. Playing with a controller is seamless and easier than I thought. This is not a pick up and play game. Please be prepared to spend many hours playing this game if you want to make progress.

    The controls are not intuitive and clunky to use. The instructions are insufficient.

    I'm a PC gamer and that has been a known fact about me so I was very skepticle of this on consoles. But lugging my alienware around hasn't been the most effective so I purchased a switch and figured this game would be good on the go. I was not disappointed. Excellent job mapping controls to a controller scheme. (Easier to play than the PC version) I'm glad this game was redone so well and has been opened up to a broader community of gamers. I highly recommend this product.

    I used to play on the Mac ages ago. Very happy that it is available again, since it doesn’t run on current Macs.

    I'm really enjoying playing these games on the Switch this time around. Would also like to say that the first time the tracking said it was delivered, it wasn't delivered to my mailbox. When I called in, they were very helpful and sent me a new one immediately without charging me any time. I don't typically buy from Best Buy, but now I won't hesitate buying from them in the future.
