Some games never needed updating. Chess has been chess for centuries, solitaire for a couple of them, and the arcade classics of the eighties still play exactly as well as they did. A session with one of these is calm and familiar. You know the rules, you know the rhythm, and the only variable is how well you play today. That is enough.
