The shepards’ scene from Sierra On-Line’s Christmas eCard. 🔊 Volume up!
Posted on December 23, 2025
Sierra On-Line brought festive cheer to computers everywhere with its digital Season’s Greeting e-Cards, first introduced in 1986. Downloaded from Sierra’s BBS (maybe over a 2400-baud modem?), these animated holiday cards doubled as mini tech demos—showing off AGI and SCI engines, music playback on sound cards like the MT-32, and Sierra’s creative spirit. Each year’s e-card became a small gift to fans, long before the internet made sharing easy.
