Mine is probably like a lot of people's with Oregon Trail on the computers at school. Or there was this SIM type game that allowed you to build your own dinosaur amusement park. You had to save up for and decide what type of cages/fences to put certain dinosaurs in with various outcomes if you chose wrong. Btw don't attempt to hold a T-Rex behind just a chain link fence. The results aren't pretty lol.

As far as technically on a computer I'm not sure if it was the first, but used to play The Hunt for Red October on a Commodore 64c a lot.

Raid on Bungeling Bay for Commodore 64

 

[BurnItDwn]

Apple 2E, I was 4 years old, my dad was showing me the game Lode Runner.

 

[Riverhound777]

I believe it was Heroes Quest on 5 1/4" floppy disks in the early 90s. I remember something about killing centaurs for claws and killing bandits. Was a lot of fun.

The games I remember playing the most though were Silent Service 2 and Railroad Tycoon.

 

[wetech]

Moon Patrol on the Commodore 64.

 

[Midwayman]

C64 stuff if we're limiting it to general purpose computers.
Summer Games, Yi Ar Kung Fu, etc. I remember getting the c64 mags and typing in the pages of Hexadecimal to get a working game.

Edit- scratch that. I remember playing some canyon run game on a Commodore PET with a tape drive before that.

 

[Atomic Playboy]

A few games on the Apple IIe (Moon Patrol, Dig Dug, Montezuma's Revenge, Q*Bert, Oregon Trail, Odell Lake and some ninja game that wasn't Shinobi). Don't know which one came first, but I feel like I spent the most time with Moon Patrol.
