Happy #NiGHTS25th birthday to one of my favorite games of all time, NiGHTS Into Dreams. I didn’t have many Saturn games growing up but I did have this one and it blew my mind in so ways and really expanded my imagination as a kid.

Happy 25th anniversary to NiGHTS! I didn’t even realize it was this year as I introduced my daughter to it for the first time. I guess now I’ll have to finally pick up one of those Saturn memory cartridges to save our progress 🙂 #NiGHTS25th #NiGHTSintoDreams pic.twitter.com/bsqw7nBfjE
