Probably the slalom ski sport I vaguely keep in mind taking part in on a HP85A my dad introduced residence from work some weekend. Can’t discover a video of it sadly. I keep in mind the flags drawn on the display, and utilizing keys to manage a dotted line going from the highest of the display down.

Or probably the Philips pong console we had. Do not keep in mind for positive if this was earlier. You may play commonplace two-player pong, or some form of “soccer/soccer” variant (mainly nonetheless pong, however with two or three paddles per participant), and a solo-variant the place you bounced the ball towards a hard and fast wall and simply tried to remain alive for so long as doable.

Then a Zenith Z/80 that you possibly can play snakes on, plus Zork and another textual content journey, and some different text-only video games (as a result of that pc solely had monochrome text-mode, no graphics or coloration in any respect). That snakes sport was undoubtedly the primary sport me and my associates performed extra severely, most likely hours per day.

Then a PC XT with monochrome display and some video games like Snipes, Big Top, King’s Quest I, and Microsoft Decathlon. Snipes is a sport I nonetheless play every now and then and that’s good for actual not just for nostalgia.

In that approximate order. I used to be probably not sufficiently old to recollect many particulars.
