I was born in the early 90's, so I grew up playing PC games from the late 90's to the early 2000's. I've recently come across a couple of these games lying around in storage. So far I've found Roller Coaster Tycoon, Zoombini's Logical Journey, Jurassic Park 3: Danger Zone, Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 3D (original was for N64), Zoo Tycoon, and Just Grandma And Me. Two other ones I remember but no longer have the disc for are The Oregon Trail and Pokemon Project Studio (Red version, I made so much shit with this). It's been a pain in the ass, but I've managed to get all of these old games running on my computer. It's so much fun going back and replaying these wonderful games that are still wonderful. Currently trying to save all of my Zoombini's the the fucking Bubble Chasm or w/e it's called is being a bitch. /nostalgia

Deer Avenger. What a dumb game that was, but when I was 9 I thought it was the best thing ever. A deer hunting humans and fat jokes. What couldn't I like.

Also
Need For Speed. I remember me and my brother mod'ed/cheated in this so bad it stopped working.
Madden NFL 97.

Well, as a little-little kid, all my fambly had were macs, so I played what I could for that, mostly educational games like Math Blaster or Jump-start #th grade or those Humongous-brand point and click adventure games like Pajama Sam, Put-Put, or SpyFox.

Also, I was very hurt to find out my Oregon trail cd didn't work on 64-bit systems :'(

And as for even older games, I remember playing some game about going through a mummy's tomb that was on the ollddd mac, it was black and white, and I think there may have been lions, and I think you could destroy a mummy with a scarab.

Edit: found it

Age of Empires
Neopets
Microsoft Golf
Watched an older friend play Dune
and some paper plane game in a house
along with another I've forgotten the name of where you played a digger in the Australian Gold Rush, it was mostly text based and had farms you could operate, travellers you could transfer and hotels to run too.

Otherwise I was an N64/PS1 Kid

Main PC game of my childhood was Star Wars: Droidworks, and to this day I can't get it working. Through a virtual machine or anything.

Monkey Island 1 & 2. Think the first one was dome over 4 floppy disks and the second was over 11 of them. Having to change disks every few mins did get rather annoying, but was so worth it for such a great game.

Also Wizkid, loved the game until you got to the very end where it became an Asteroids type game, no one in my house ever completed it, despite numerous attempts.

Well, since i am just 18 an my childhood isnt that far away, i may clearly say that Croc 1 and Jazz Jack Rabbit 2 were the games i was playing most o the time :D Then there were Elastomania, RTC2 and Neighbours from Hell. I think thats pretty much it :D i was too afraid to play any game that contained blood or "scary" monsters :D
(Edit: Oh, and how could i forget Crash Bandicoot :D)

My first PC games would be MS Entertainment Pack. Klotski, Skifree, Tetravex, Rodent's Revenge, Minesweeper, etc. I wonder why they don't get remake (except Minesweeper :p)
