It was an Apple ii I think and Star Trek of some sort. ASCII based graphics and words. Idk I was 6. Didn’t have a clue what I was doing. It was on my bio father’s computer. He used it as a way to distract me while Mom and him argued over child support. Last time I saw him thankfully. But at least I have that memory of trying to catch a “k”
This wasn’t the first game that I played but it was the first game that I PLAYED. It really got me, made me draw stuff from the game, scratch my head and glued me to the screen.
My little brain melted from not understanding. The bitterness of every mistake and death was sprinkled by some mysterious force with the most magical feeling of solving the next level. This game explained by the example how games can be and are amazing. Before it, I just enjoyed the fun aspects of playing but here I was gaming and every level felt like a real achievement.
Now, when I think about it, this game made me skip building with LEGO for some time.
First game I remember playing is a DOS game called Snipes. It was at my stepdads work and I remember getting smoked by his workmate as we were playing it LAN and I remember crying haha.
I don’t know the name. In the afternoons in the early nineties after school I was at a neighbor’s house. Her husband had a PC and a joystick connected to it sparked my interest. He showed me a flight game. I don’t remember much detail, but it was a vector based game with fast action based flying and you had to bombard or shoot enemy bases. The next thing I remember is my mother calling our neighbor when I planned to come home because it was already getting late and I had never stayed that long before.
