Prince of Persia on our Family PC (Intel 486).

I have played this game more than I'd like to admit. It was difficult, but not impossible. Just an awesome game, and quite good for its time

Same. I donβ€˜t think 8 year old me got even past the first couple of levels but it sure didn’t stop me from trying.

As a little child I watched my father play Diablo. I was always allowed to chose the character he used. The first games I played were Titan Quest and Lego Star Wars, excluding some learning games.

Doom, played with my friends on the office computers via ipx networking.

Edit: totally forgot about my C64 and the shitload of games I played on it...

Super Mario Land on the Nintendo Gameboy, and Lemmings on PC/DOS.

Das schwarze Auge it means ~~Black~~ Dark Eye and is a Pen and Paper Roleplay.

Edit: corrected due to the correction right under me. thx

[–] homoludens@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

More like Dark Eye, as black eye usually means "ein blaues Auge haben".

Commander Keen in my early years. But the first game that really got me into 3D gaming was probably Acclaim's ShadowMan. It's still an absolute masterpiece. Great visuals, amazing storytelling...and that creepy soundtrack is just burned into my brain. Probably had some nightmares from that when I was a kid. πŸ˜„
