Baby Flash Cards: Car Sounds

Video games like Her Story, Fez, and Tunic beg the player to take detailed notes to keep track of the story. But journaling or note-taking games are part of a long tradition that goes back to the game manuals of the 80s and 90s. Back in the day, games like The Legend of Zelda had incredibly beautiful, detailed manuals that helped the player navigate difficult puzzles and learn about lore, when memory on consoles was short. Polygon's Clayton Ashley details the history of taking notes in games, and some of his recent favorites that continue the tradition.

These are the most expensive Pokémon TCG cards of 2026 so far, including high-value Ascended Heroes pulls like SIR Pikachu ex and SIR Mega Gengar ex, along with a couple of surprises as well.
