@stux I don't remember exactly but one of the very very first was Paratrooper on some 8086 Olivetti thing at Dad's office. Lemmings and Sim City weren't far behind.

@stux On a domestic or office computer, I think it must have been the version of Breakout that came on the starter tape with the Spectrum.
I'd probably played cabinets before that point, though. (Space Invaders was probably old hat by that point, but I remember Defender, Zaxxon, and Tempest in the local swimming pool.)

Okay cool! It seems this a great way to get the names of a lot of classic games I've never heard off

@stux The first "game" I ever played was the edutainment game Playful Professor for the Commodore 64. This was mostly a math teaching tool, while the game element required you to go through a haunted mansion to get the key from the ghost and escape. https://www.lemon64.com/game/playful-professor-math-tutor

@stux iirc, it was "ski or die" on a tape-loading C64 in the early 1990s.

@stux I canāt really recall details like that, but my best timeline reconstruction would be Lunar Lander on a friendās VIC20, although Wikipedia claims that the VIC20 version was an unlicensed clone, called āJupiter Landerā.

@stux for me that would be Mouse Trap, on the Amiga 500 https://www.mobygames.com/game/15279/mouse-trap/screenshots/
