This was the first ever non Tiger video game I ever remember playing. I was about two or three years old and my mom bought an old apple II along with a bunch of games. It arrived one stormy night and I recall her setting it up and having me play some games while sitting on her lap. Although she swears by centipede and Carmen Sandiego being my first proper video game experiences, this is what I have my fist memory of.

Swinging off those vines and her saying "now he's going to jump into the water!" After I eventually figured out how to navigate that first board- memories you can't really put a price or proper rating on.

One day I'll have the space and money for a proper retro PC setup to nostalgasm over that...but for now...I'm happy to at least remember that.
