Me, sometime in the 80s, playing kings quest and some disney learning game on an apple2e

alot of solid solid games on that 🙂
 
Mine is probably like a lot of people's with Oregon Trail on the computers at school. Or there was this SIM type game that allowed you to build your own dinosaur amusement park. You had to save up for and decide what type of cages/fences to put certain dinosaurs in with various outcomes if you chose wrong. Btw don't attempt to hold a T-Rex behind just a chain link fence. The results aren't pretty lol.

I believe it was Heroes Quest on 5 1/4" floppy disks in the early 90s. I remember something about killing centaurs for claws and killing bandits. Was a lot of fun.

The games I remember playing the most though were Silent Service 2 and Railroad Tycoon.

C64 stuff if we're limiting it to general purpose computers.
Summer Games, Yi Ar Kung Fu, etc. I remember getting the c64 mags and typing in the pages of Hexadecimal to get a working game.

Edit- scratch that. I remember playing some canyon run game on a Commodore PET with a tape drive before that.
 
A few games on the Apple IIe (Moon Patrol, Dig Dug, Montezuma's Revenge, Q*Bert, Oregon Trail, Odell Lake and some ninja game that wasn't Shinobi). Don't know which one came first, but I feel like I spent the most time with Moon Patrol.
