I am not into arcade games but your computer games list... I like. I
started with Infocom games. I played Archon with my brother a lot when
we were kids. I remember  Rescue on Fractalus as well on the C64.

I remember asking my high school teachers if I could play Spellbreaker on
our Apple ][ computers in the lab, and they took a look at the screen and
said, "That's a game?"

"Yes."

"Go ahead."
