I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure it was either Battlezone or KABOOM for the Atari, one of those or an old text based 'the Amazing Spiderman' for my old Apple IIE that I can hardly remember.

I've always wanted to play that game, being the classic that it is...but unlike Infocom, it doesn't tell you cardinal directions for anything, so you just type "N" and hope that there's something good to the North. I gave up pretty quick =/

It was the official sequel to Wolf 3D.

There's also an unofficial sequel called Rise of the Triad.

My first gaming system was a Nintendo Entertainment System when I was about 3, circa 1989, and the first game I've ever played on that is Mike Tyson's Punch-Out.
