So, Warzone. Do you like the recent trend of battle royale games replacing maps instead of adding a new map as a second option? I see positives to both!

If you could choose one game to preserve forever because you think no one else will, what game would you choose and why is it Warlords on the Atari 2600?
In this case, “preserved” in the sense of “playable/accessible to anyone forever”
not “preserved” like...encased in an epoxy resin or somethin’
