Okay, so I think the majority of my flist here are my fellow late 80's-early 90's people, born to the computer games era. My friends Apryl and Julie ([profile] julibeth) and I are discussing old computer games because of this site. 

So, poll time! You'll have to put in the answers in the comments, since polls and I don't get along, but oh well.

What early-mid 90's computer game(s) was/were your favorite(s? Feel free to pick more than one!

1. Creative Writer (though it was less of a game and more of a junior word processor if I remember correctly)

2. Hollywood High

3. King Quest

4. Oregon Trail

5. Carmen San Diego

6. The Petz series (Dogz & Catz - aren't they up to seven now? Probably more).

7. Dangerous Creatures

8. Pepper's Adventures in Time

9. The Magic School Bus games

10. Tree House

11. Zookeeper

12. Other

Personally, mine were 1, 2, 6, 7, 8, 10 &11 (respectively, depending on my age - some were when I was really little, others when I was older-ish.)

I'd love to hear!

OMB, totally Oregon Trail. I OWNED that game. I LOVED the magic school bus games too, though. And do you remember Storybook Weaver? Maybe that wasn't as big, but it was so much fun. Oh, and of course Dinosaur tycoon. I don't remember what that game actually entailed, but I do remmeber that every time we got to go to the computor lab I'd switch between that one and Oregon Trail. Oh, and Amazon Trail too, do you remember that one?

AND WAIT! There was this game with a dragon... I'm a little sketchy on the details... there was a dragon and a coloring page. WHAT WAS THIS GAME CALLED? I loved it.

I feel like this was more than you asked for? haha, I didn't think I'd ever get so excited about those games.

Amazon Trail... I think so, but when I looked it up I just got Lost Secrets, so maybe it had two names?

And yeah, me either.
