Lead says "computer games" infobox says "video games", any good reason they're not the same?
" 1989[1]" ref not needed in the infobox as it's referenced in the article.
Any reason TIMEQUEST is in caps? the article doesn't treat it that way.
"based on the novel" eponymous novel?
" rising without a similar rise in" avoid repeat, maybe "similar increase in"?
" Bob Bates and Mike Verdu.[7] Bates and Verdu" repetitive, perhaps " Bob Bates and Mike Verdu.[7] The duo..." or similar.
"r Infocom.[6] a leader" probably should be a comma, not a full stop.
"after years of rising costs" it makes it sound like an age, but it was three years.
"Activision ultimately closed Infocom" is ultimately adding anything here?
No need to link common words like "author".
No need to repeat people's first names if there's no ambiguity after the first use.
No need to link common words like "novel".
Don't use hash (#) to mean "number" per MOS.
"Computer Gaming World's " 's shouldn't be in italics. And use {{'s}} to stop the apostrophe crashing into the last "d".
LucasArts is overlinked.
"publisher Random House,[14][12]" order.
" a blessing and a curse" not really encyclopedic in tone, is it a quote?
"compact disc" is overlinked.
"The Wheel of Time in 1999, a first-person action game" all three overlinked.
No need to link New York or France.
All the spaced hyphens in the table (e.g. "... World - Adventure...") should be en-dashes.
Table needs a caption, row and col scopes for accessibility.
Online refs should have at least one of publication date and access date.
Avoid SHOUTING in ref titles.
"Bytes - Issue" should be an en-dash, not a hyphen, check others.
The defunct date (infobox) and defunct category (2004) don't appear in the prose nor referenced.

That's it for a quick first review. On hold for now. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 19:42, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot for the review and suggestions. I incorporated all of them. I also gave a good look over the ref section and the table for formatting. Let me know if I missed anything. I can keep chipping away. Shooterwalker (talk) 02:13, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No, I think it's all good. I made a couple of minor tweaks but I'm happy this passes GA. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 09:32, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
