Rise of the Triad when we were little
One of my all time oldies favorites. I have an old IBM ThinkPad EL760 that I have it loaded on. I was actually playing it about 2 weeks ago - still interesting.

Lol I was still in early elementry school for most of the "old school" era, so my memories are mainly limited to the educational greats:

Logical Journey of the Zoombinis
The Time Warp of Doctor Brain'
Gazillionaire
Oregon Trail 2
The Reader Rabbit Series
Lemmings
Gizmos and Gadgets
Mudd Monster (game I played on an ancient 80s IBM when I was 3. Green and Black monitor FTW!)
SimAnt
SimTown
Hyperoid :D


That said, I've taken an interest in retro games, so I've recently played:

Planet's Edge
Star Control 2
Survival
Wasteland
