I am a Console kid or was at least was never much of a person who played on PC,
but I did play a couple and I think my First one was
Sonic DX Adventure Directors Cut or Lemings Revolution that I actually owned as a kid.

otherwise probably some kind of learning game.

Mixed Up Mother Goose. Got to play it on my uncle's IBM PS/2.

Good times.

it was a moto GP one, it was pretty old, I'm not sure if it was this one, but it looks similar

Maybe. Hang-On has been released on almost all PCs at the time, even if it was made for arcades and Sega Master System.

It looks similar, to be honest, I only have a vague memory. I was probably five years old when I played it.

PC game was probably Tomb Raider although I was playing games on BBC Micro (great system, shame about who made it) before that at school in the early 90s.

I always liked getting up the desert wall only for the game to blast me back towards the center of the map.

It was either Wolfenstein 3D or Space Quest 4... not sure which. Doom also came shortly after.

Chances are that it may have been Grand Prix 500 2:

It looks similar but I don't remember having the map on the top, or the stats on the right side, I remember it was most of the screen the actual race.

The earliest PC games I remember playing are Jill of the Jungle, Fairy Godmom, Hercules Action Game, and Captain Kangaroo. I was like 4 at the time so I don't remember which one was the very first, but it was probably one of those. Many years later I played all the way through Jill of the Jungle and it's actually a really solid platformer on a platform that's relatively lacking in good platformers.

I didn't discover this game until I got my Commodore 64 Mini but I played all the way through it and now it's one of my favorites. Despite the lack of bits it's actually pretty intense when the residents of the mansion discover and chase you, especially the creepy old lady who wants to have sex with you. Edna, I think?

There's a sequel on MS-DOS called "Day of the Tentacle" that I think you'll like even more. It stars Bernard (the nerd) and his two roommates who have to save the world from the Purple Tentacle.

I played the beginning of it but lost my save and didn't have it in me to restart right then. I love the art style and the voice acting though. I'll be sure to finish it one of these days because it seemed awesome.

Although I have always been a person who grew up with consoles, every now and then I played games on my parents' PC. Civilization III, the games included with Mulino Bianco and Ferrero snacks, the browser games on the CN and Playhouse Disney websites.

However, if I had to consider a game started for the first time on MY computer, I would say GTA IV. One of my favorite games, and one of the games I consider far too under-regarded these days.

My first Pc game was Garry's mod back in 2022, before then I was Ps3 only.
