[edit]Most of what I'm finding is non-English, but use whatever you can and just move the rest here when you are done - maybe one day someone else will be able to make use of them and build up the article. :) BOZ (talk) 01:30, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

- ... that the Windows 95 game Banzai Bug, in which a player controls a bug that must escape from an exterminator's house and is told as a war story, was created as "The Flight-Sim with an Attitude"?
5x expanded by SL93 (talk) and BOZ (talk). Nominated by SL93 (talk) at 03:00, 21 January 2022 (UTC).
The article meets most of the requirements-- it's been 5x expanded, is long enough, has no copyvio issues, and the hook is cited. I almost flagged this hook as failing supplementary rule C6 ("If the subject is a work of fiction or a fictional character, the hook must involve the real world in some way."), but I decided that the hook as is involves the real-world by referencing how it was marketed instead of just its plot -- but it was borderline. Great work on this article to both of you, really interesting game! Nomader (talk) 19:26, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
