A Cairo-based editorial team preserving the culture, boxed editions, and magazine heritage of 90s PC strategy gaming.
Read the StoryFan-first editorial values, no clickbait, no affiliate noise — just genuine enthusiasm.
Every article draws on original magazine scans, box art documentation, and period-accurate sources — not recycled Wikipedia summaries.
We celebrate the physicality of 90s PC gaming — the maps, reference cards, and thick manuals that made big-box releases genuinely special.
No SEO padding, no listicle filler. Our writers are long-time strategy enthusiasts who bring considered, personal perspectives to every piece.
We accept no sponsored posts and carry no affiliate links. Our recommendations exist because we genuinely believe in the material, full stop.
From PC Gamer to Strategy Plus, we revisit the print publications that shaped how a generation of players discovered and understood strategy titles.
Founded and actively maintained in Cairo, Egypt, our team reflects a global passion for PC gaming history that extends well beyond the Western mainstream.
From a half-remembered game box to a fully researched editorial piece — here is how we work.
Ideas emerge from community discussions, personal collections, and deep dives into 90s magazine archives. We prioritise underrepresented titles and overlooked boxed releases from the DOS and early Windows era.
Writers track down period magazines, developer interviews, retail catalogues, and firsthand collector accounts to build an accurate picture of a game's original release context.
Each draft is reviewed by at least one other team member for factual accuracy, tonal consistency, and genuine insight — ensuring the piece adds something real to the conversation.
Finished articles are tagged, cross-referenced with related pieces, and added to our searchable archive so readers can explore the full editorial history of a title or era.
