Torin's Passage is a game I wrote in 1994 after watching the film Mrs. Doubtfire with my daughter. I realized during that film that the audience was laughing in two different pitches: high little giggles when the kids laughed at the slapstick parts of the film, and deep knowing guffaws when the adults caught something that they knew the kids wouldn't get. I thought: Why isn't there a computer game that my 9-year-old daughter and I could play that works like that?

So I created one.

While Torin wasn't my best-selling game, it's probably the most meaningful to me because I wrote it for especially for my daughter and I to enjoy together.

While you don't have to have a child to play it with (I think it stands up perfectly well as a more-or-less standard adventure game), if you do have one, find a copy of it and play it together. I promise you'll both laugh, although not necessarily at the same times!
