Anyone remember the arcade game Shinobi (~1987). I used to play it when I went on holiday to France. I loved that game. I've got a copy somewhere, maybe I'll dig it out, I never did finish it.

ZORK was my first - "Your light went out, you are in the dark, you are about to be eaten by a GRUE!!!"

My very first computer game was a Star Wars type thing that I had to load from a casette (!!) on a TRS-80. And used letters and numerals to represent ships and weapons. Can't remember what it's called now though. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/frown.gif

If you mean any computer, then it was Adventure (with a capital 'A', and it's maze of twisty little passages all alike), on a Data General Eclipse mini-computer. Although, I might have played Hunt the Wumpus first. I can't remember clearly that far back. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif Adventure is the game I remember best.

If you mean a personal computer, then it was Zork on my original Mac (128K, no hard drive).

My very first computor game was played on the mainframe at the New Zealand Ministry of Works in 1979. Some people has linked up with other computors around the world to create something brand new - a net! And on this net there was another brand new thing - an "Adventure". That was all the game was called. It was a purely text adventure with a few mazes and a few objects. New rooms kept appearing as engineers all over the world added to it.

I think I was really priviliged - while waiting for my first husband to finish work so I could give him a lift home I was in on the birth of the net, and the birth of adventure games.
