What was your favorite PC game to play in school as a kid?

i can't remember if it was my fave, but i sure remember playing Gizmos and Gadgets a ton! especially on those rainy school days XD

Starcraft.

Occasionally Duke Nukem.

There were a few but I don't know what my favorite was

In school?

Zoombinis, no question.

Quake, Everyone in my school plays Quake when I was young. At our school we've a "Computer Room" with around 15-20 PCs and everytime when we have a 15-30mins break then everyone in our school will run to the Computer Room and fight each other to get a PC and then play Quake XD

Probably in the 4th grade.. or 3rd grade.. my memory jogs me.. but it was Dinosaur Tycoon. Oh man! I loved that game... we couldn't wait for Computer Lab just so we could sneak in a few sessions of it. :P :lol: It was on a MAC too.

Read Alert

Counter-strike

Warcraft 2

Last year a bunch of people and I would play a Tron lightbike-varient game over LAN in a technology cIass. It was awesome.

Me and another guy played Warcraft III a bit over LAN in that same cIass.

Age of Empires. I sank like 500+ hours into it as a kid.

Age of Empires. I sank like 500+ hours into it as a kid.

unfortunately I never got to play games on school computers, but one time my friend put Counter strike on one of the laptops as a joke (it ran at 5 fps, because of a combo of bad hardware and bad connection). But I guess if flash games count, I played a lot of those miniclip side scrollers.

Kitten Cannon

Age of Kings

Age of Empires II

- Oregons Trail

Captain Goodnight

Diamond Mine

Lode Runner

Skyfox

Rescue Raiders

All on the highly advanced and brand new Apple 2c

Starcraft, Red Alert and Oregon Trail

Red alert was my only commercial pc game, I lacked the funds to get others. So I mostly played freeware stuff.

Quake 2.

runescapePvt_r3d

Why does it have to be ~in school?~

OK, Oregon Trail was the standard back in those days. I also played a survival game where you were a fish and you had to avoid the hazards of living in a lake.

OSHI- OSPREY DIVE DIVE!!!@$#$%

I had a PC at home as well, I played Commander Keen, Doom, and Wolfenstein 3D mainly. iD owns my childhood.

starcraft, ut 99, warcraft 3, and of course showing all the console elites what it means to be good at halo on some good ol' lan battles on blood gulch via halo trial!!!!

wtf? IN SCHOOL? I never got to play games in school! well.. eh.. really dumb education games.. but thats it.. Oregon Trail I can remember.. and that game was awesome. I did however play diablo during my study hall once in high school.. The Computer teacher said it was impossible to play games on his Network.. HA! :PSLUSHiNaToR

i was the student assigned to the computer lab as an assistant my senior year...i only had 4 classes...but had to be there 6 hours to be a full time student...sooo i made up the time playin games in the computer lab inbetween crying about how bad the computers had aged...no reason we should be using 1.5 gig single cpus with 256 mg of ram in 2008...

Well, I didn't have the whole computer lab experience when I went to school, but I played the crap out of all those Mecc/Learning Company games like Odell Down Under, Storybook Weaver (probably my favorite), Opening Night, Treasure Mountain, Africa Trail, MayaQuest, Midnight Rescue....those games were so good. Wish they still made stuff like that.

we had a permission to stay at school to play Quake 2 on LAN after the day, so that.

I don't think it was Math Blaster but it was something like that. Basically there were math problems and you had to do different things to get the right answer.

Heroes of Might and Magic II. 8)

I am still in school and we normaly lan halo custom edition

I think runescape, quake and age of empires were the most popular games on school computers back in the day because of the low requirements adn cause they're vey fun. i got a deja vu when wtrinig this sentence. i think i already wrote this somewhere. who palyed worms btw?? i think we also played that.

Jazz Jackrabbit, Duke Nukem 3D, Mortal Kombat 3, Sub Culture, Blood, Space Jam, GTA 2, Doom, Wolfenstein 3D... Now those were the days.

Wow. I gotta go back to the days of the ZX Spectrum, and playing games like Spy Vs Spy, Match Day 2, Jet Set Willy, Chase HQ and my all time fave, Back to skool.

Oh good times...
