Gaming

Wolfenstein 3D, my first ever PC game

my dad gave me a floppy disk from one of his coworkers with instructions on how to navigate and run the game from DOS and I felt like a hacker lol

I never had a DOS computer back then and only played a few games through emulators in recent years. It has to be DOOM for me.

Little Big Adventure for sure

I cannot remember the name but you got to choose between a boy character and a girl character and each stage you had to get all the collectibles to open the door. It was a 2d platformer as well.
Edit: Turns out the game is called Word Rescue.

Magic Carpet was my favorite dos game I think, that or Loom.

Magic Carpet had you flying around on a Carpet, blasting fireballs at snake things, collecting mana orbs, building castles, and destroying castles of the enemy.

Loom was a Lucas Arts game where you played as a "can't look at the face of" mystical weaver of reality.. Dude under a robe with a Hoodie. You pick up a Magic staff, learn combo's of letters to play on the staff (I had a little notebook next to me with them all written down) and the game got absolutely wild. Fabric of reality breaking sorta wild.

Mechwarrior 2

Kings Quest games for sure. IV was the one I played the most, it was a buggy mess, but I loved it.

Carmageddon

Dungeon Hack

Bunch of greats mentioned so far. I was a big fan of an older game called “Millenium: Return to earth” in which you colonized the solar system. One of the few games I had that came on the larger, five inch floppies.

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis Truly a masterpiece or maybe I have rose tinted glasses A real puzzler with a decent amount of replayability

Wing Commander Privateer - I love a good economy game in my spaceship game.

Mechwarrior - Battletech 1st person. Get you a 30 foot tall robot and shoot some lasers at other giant robots. Go for the knees.

was road rash on DOS? played that a lot. wolf 3d too.
