My Favorite Childhood Game

I loved a few games as a child, Monopoly, of course, became one of my early favorites — though I probably love and enjoy that game more now than ever before.

Another favorite was this typing game that I used to play on the computer. The character was a rock climber I believe and the mission and purpose of the game was to type the words on the rock so that he could climb up. I think that there were other aspects also.

One reason that this was my favorite is just hindsight. My favorite middle school class may very well have been the typing class I took in 7th grade as a 12-year-old. Now, I type fast, I type well, and I type A LOT.

I love competing and the ability to compete with myself and previous time trials made the game that much more fun for me.
