My prolog anecdote: ~2001 my brother and I writing an A* pathfinder in prolog to navigate a bot around the world of Asheron's Call (still the greatest MMORPG of all time!). A formative experience in what can be done with code. Others had written a plugin system (called Decal) in C for the game and a parser library for the game's terrain file format. We took that data and used prolog to write an A* pathfinder that could navigate the world, avoiding un-walkable terrain and even using the portals to shortcut between locations. Good times.
