[Trifixion]

"Adventure" text game. On an Apple ][. In 1977.

Still has one of my all time favorite bits...

Player: "KILL DRAGON"

Computer: (giving you that typical snarky text adventure response) "With what, your bare hands?"

Player: (after much frustration trying to come up with a different idea) "YES"

Computer: "Congratulations, you have just vanquished a dragon with your bare hands!"

Player: *headdesk*

I think it was some PC game where you fought a bunch of monsters in one room, got killed, fallen through darkness, then there was a fairy godmother, a demon and something. The wall outlines were yellow, there was a top down perspective, the demons were yellow. And that's about all I can remember.

The first REAL game I played I think is Claw. Captain Nathaniel J. Claw.

 

[God's Clown]

Diablo the Second featuring the Lord of Destruction. Good times, good times.

I think My first game was Super Metroid for the Snes, but I could be wrong as my elder brothers who are roughly five and six years my peer got me to play games since before I could form any coherent thought.
