Would someone help me remember how to search for a topic of an older game? Example - Chessmaster Challenge or Escape From Frankensteins Castle.
I thought if you pur a * infront of a word like Cheesmaster it would act like a wild card
and I could see past post or discussions of the game. thanks.

Hi Chick -- go to Search, Advanced, type in the word you want to search for (sometimes it's easier to search for one word rather than the whole title), make sure you adjust the time of the search for newer than 1 year rather than newer than 1 week, and hit submit at the bottom.

Open search and click on advanced.

On the left side, choose the forum.

On the right, from the top:
Choose a word (It works well with just one word such as Chessmaster).

Leave Display Name blank unless you are looking for a specific post by a specific person.

Make it newer than 5 years. (Or older if you are going in the archives)


Leave the older than alone.
Click submit.
