Saw a post on Twitter that made me think of some of my fav childhood games. I learned how to use the home computer at a pretty young age and there are some vague memories of games from when I was even younger, but outside of big names I struggle to remember them.
Rollercoaster Tycoon was not a game bought for me. My mom used to be a bit of a PC gamer back in the day. Mom hesitated to let me play it at first just bc he thought it might be too difficult for me, but I was able to catch on to the basics. I also played a lot a lot of Zoo Tycoon, but RC Tycoon did come first.
I remember playing all of the Magic School Bus PC games at the library as a kid. They were all fun, but I as an animal lover the Rainforest one stuck with me the most.
I was always begging my mom at every scholastic book fair to buy me Catz. I can't remember for sure if 5 was the version I had, but I think it was. It had where you could breed the catz. I got it in a two pack that had Dogz as well, but I played Catz way more.
I've played a lot of Barbara's games over the years, but Pet Rescue was my favorite. I replayed this one so many times. My other favorite was Barbie as Rapunzel. It had almost 0 to do with the movie. You went through the castle and got decorate the rooms. Played basically like Project Makeover but without having the match game part.

spyro the dragon. light of my life. the second game in the original trilogy (gateway to glimmer/ripto's rage) is actually my favourite but i've put the first one since i played it first. i still play the reignited trilogy regularly, but there's something about the original ps1 aesthetics that can't be replicated
-
digimon world was a quirky game that fulfilled the desire to have a little guy follow you around. i was never a fan of the shitting mechanic though
-
pokemon red. obviously. i'm pretty sure my first ever starter was squirtle

i spent a lot of time on theme park (and also theme hospital) until the disc broke. i eventually replaced it with the ps2 version but it wasn't as good (although i can't remember if the pc version had minigames, which the ps2 version did). i liked being able to walk around the park and go on the rides in first person view :)
