This year is the 10th anniversary of Armor Games!
A decade of games made for us gamers and a huge community. I really wonder how AG was 10 years ago...how it was looking? what games did it have? how many fans did it have?
All I want to say is Happy Birthday to this amazing gaming site and keep up the good work for Moderators,Knights,Developers,Gamers etc.
Stay awesome and stay the best!

This is just some of the moderators and staff of AG that helped to make Armor Games the site that it is now.

The first time I drove down to the Armor office was in Feb 2009, and started doing freelance work shortly thereafter... @LRoot started about a month or so before that. Before then it was only John and Dan... with it being just Dan for the first few years.

If you want to see what the site looked like back in 2005, check out: http://web.archive.org/web/20051013070059/http://armorgames.com/ That's from Oct 13th, 2005... the earliest entry in the wayback machine.

And, of course, before Armor was Armor, it was Games of Gondor. So you can see what that looked like, going back to March 26th, 2004: http://web.archive.org/web/20040326033329/http://www.gamesofgondor.com/ . The last working shot was also on Oct 13th, 2005... so that was the date the domain switched.

History!

Tass has spoken!

In all seriousness, though, what kind of job skills do you need to qualify to work at Armor Games?

My lord, I came here on 2008, and even before that the site has changed a whole lot. I love you AG team.

You guys literally fill the gaping hole in my day.

It's hard to overstate how players that come back and play our games daily are what keep this website going, and keep developers creating amazing free content. I'm unsure if it is the exact birthday, @Tasselfoot when is the birthday? I want to know now.

Well, I found out about this place in 2011 where I found raze on armor games while searching it on Google because I had found it on another website and I wanted to play it. I made an account the very next day. I was an AP farmer, which I'm not proud of. I then started becoming active in the forums in the start of 2015 (I knew about them, but I didn't post much) I tried to get as many quests as possible and... well, that's it.

@Ferret I'd have to say Oct 13th... it's the last recorded day of GoG and the first recorded day of AG. I was already active in flash games by 2005, but not specifically with AG; any confirmation beyond what I've provided would have to come from @DannyAG

But very cool... I actually thought it was 2006, not 2005. So I learned something

@Tasselfoot So Oct 13th, 2015 - We should do something for our 10 year. That's exciting.
