- Summary:
- In the early 2000's, the Danish Public Broadcasting Company ran Hundeparken, an entirely non-profit social browser game where cute but crude pixelated dogs could chat, play minigames, and trade rare hats. We spoke with a videogame archivist and his friend, a long-time Hundeparken player, about the ways the game helped lonely tweens find friends, and how it eventually survived the death of Flash.
