Birth date
I was born in August 2000 inside a small, wrinkle body of a little boy whose anticipation towards one's own future excitedly dwindles every passing day. -
Tick-Tac-Toe
Unlike the gifted kids who would spend their time playing chess or practicing piano, I was far exceed the limit of an average human and dwelled into the prestigious realm of tick-tac-toe players at the age of 7. Dated back in ancient Egypt, this old game was way addictive for my juvenile mind, years spent on the school playground sweaty under the blazing sun. Paper-and-pencil game, ancient Egypt, two players.

Monopoly
Monopoly was an old board game which first appeared in 1935 and its low-quality Asian knock-offs were all that matter between the kids at family gatherings. It was like the grand BDSM of all ages, the frustration of losing money was usually overshadowed by the joy of seeing ones suffer the same fate, an the joy of taking others money was incredible.

Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's: Tag Force 5
I cannot describe how much I love this game back in the high school days while me and dozen of fellow enthusiasts spending time collecting overpriced cardboard sheets and battle against each other. This game was on my friend's PSP at the time digital transaction was not much of a thing, instantly provide us with a less costly alternative to reduce our attention of school's subjects to ash.

League of Legends
It is rare to see anybody with any experience with gaming doesn't know about this MOBA game, most of the time through their friends introduction. Back then, every classes in my high school would have at least roughly 50% of their members playing this game. Personally, I hate to love this game due to so little mistakes you are allowed to make to have decent fun, yet I came back double clicking the icon every time.

Player's Unknown Battle Ground
I joined PUBG while it was still at peak of popularity, when the whole battle royale genre was leveraged so high that copycats' number was rising at an extreme rapid rate. The most vivid memories of the game was me, on voice communication with the boys, trying all sort of shenanigans from streamers we watched. The most fun I had controlling a naked character, up until latter years. PUBG Corporation, PUBG: Battlegrounds, viewed 8 March, https://www.polygon.com/22879972/pubg.jpeg -
Dead by Daylight
A pioneer in asymmetric horror genre. Regardless of the abundant complaints from its player base, DbD still maintains the highest status within its genre. This is one of those games that don't need to be fun to attract player, as most of the time it is the Stockholm Syndrome that keeps the players at bay. Yet, I still love it, watch streamers play all the time. Behavior, Dead by Daylight, viewed 8 March, 2022.
