  I forget what game it was, but one of them had a “press any key” and actually reacted to Scroll Lock. Something like “I bet you didn’t expect that to work.”

    Subnautica starts with a “Press any key to continue.” and they seem to be serious. It reacts to numlock and scroll lock.

      I wonder if the Fn key would work.

        It wouldn’t on my keyboard, because I don’t think that key sends any data to the PC; it’s talking to the keyboard’s microcontroller.

        Probably not… but it’s possible… I wonder if my GameCube Sharkboard with Fn1 Fn2 and Fn3 (shutdown the computer) would work…
