Counterpoint, there are also games you tried and HATED as a kid, that you might now like as an adult.

As I kid I had a lot less need for quality story telling, and roll play, probably a lot less interest in gardening simulators too. There’s probably lots of stuff you thought you didn’t like.

Roll play? Role playing as a roll?

Addicted to Craps, I gotta throw a couple each day, butt when I think about it - it’s really money down the toilet.

My version of this is 4X games. I always was intrigued by them as a kid, but I wasn’t nearly patient enough or willing to put in the time to understand them. As an adult I’ve finally been able to enjoy them.

I’m the opposite. I played the hell out of 4x in college and early adulthood. Now, I just don’t have the time or patience for them.

I remember hating Baroque on ps2 as a kid, but then I grew up, played Spelunky and finally got it what roguelites were doing, went back and liked it.

I tried to get my nephews into pokemon nintendo games when they were like 10. Failed bad because “too much reading” and went back to Roblox…
