The Unofficial "Jeux & Strategie" 1980s Board-Game Archives
Arguably, board-games on the flip-side of cereal boxes were a precursor of today's freeware games. However, at the dawn of the digital era, a French magazine named Jeux & Strategie had routinely published a full-blown, exclusive board-game with every issue. The games are still archived online by fans of the magazine and the scanned files are accessible to anyone in the general public who's looking for inspiration in designing their own custom board-games.
