What were your go-to Games (or programs! We're all nerds here) from your childhood (lemmy.world)

I played tons of the classic 90s games like Backyard baseball, Spy Fox and 7th Guest (Which I'm sure had nothing to do with me being desensitized to Horror movies and games XD), but I also spent a lot of time messing with programs like GameMaker, Anim8tor and random maze creator type programs. What were yours?

Commander Keen! We had 1, 4, 6 and Dreams. Probably all of them Shareware. Those games made me want to get a pogo stick.

Might and Magic 4+5: World of Xeen waa what I considered our first "real" game. I didn't really understand it at the time. It's turn based but I played it like it's real time. I still play it every other year.
