I translated "Møt meg i Malaga" ("Meet Me in Malaga"), an MS-DOS game produced in the late 1980s for the Norwegian Ministry of Culture and Science, intended to promote safer sex and warn about HIV risk in particular. You take on the role of a teenager backpacking across Europe by train.

I absolutely love this article, and appreciate the exhaustive research you did for it. I'm happy to know that despite the company name, Sweden can't be blamed for Custer's Revenge.

I want to go to a Swedish Pride parade with a sign that says "KÖN BÖRJAR HÄR" ("The line/gender/sex starts here"), and an arrow pointing down at my head.

I've become fascinated by the "enchanced CD" format recently (there are apparently at least two different Swedish music CDs with games on them), but I didn't know it was used to try to combat piracy!

Thank you! It was an interesting challenge to try to explain the group in a way that non-Swedes might also understand (especially since I'm not from that part of Sweden myself).

I'm always extremely curious to know how actual Polish people would react to a game about Poland made by Swedes.

"Especially when something has no cure" really hits me like a ton of bricks. We're never getting out of this, are we?

Okay, thank you for the information! I'm considering maybe translating some obscure Swedish games sometime in the future, and this is really inspirational for that.
