The first ‘computer’ game I ever played was some lunar lander on a teletype hooked up to a mainframe. Make updates to your thrusts and watch the results print out on paper

The first actual game with a screen was the original Adventure game on a minicomputer.
XYZZY motherfuckers!

Awesome. My first game memory was a game called Klignons, that run on a Sperry mainframe. My father had to keep me busy while he worked overtime. It did have a green screen. Early 80s if I recall. I found a .net c# port of it a few years ago and even tried to implement it in Turbo Pascal in high school.
