I called a few back in the day for clues. Sonic 3, Tomb Raider 4 (I think), Overblood (lol) were a few games that stumped me as a baby child. This was long before I had internet let alone a PC that could connect.

It was something like 5-6 bucks per minute a total rip off to have someone tell you you're a dummy for not looking up and pressing 'A'.

They still make them! The Zelda ones are our favorite.

The official Elden ring strategy guide has a higher good reads score than Ulysses by James Joyce.
