What was the first ever game you had to play on the computer
Mine was Kings Quest 1
I remember this because my Father had just bought a 386 computer.

Commodore Amiga 500 was my first 'pc'.. F/A-18 Interceptor I played a lot, there was also some shipping game.. Ports of Call that was it.. also prior to that I played on my cousin's monochrome TRS-80 a game that he wrote himself that was similar to the old Lunar Lander arcade game.
