Indeed. I remember getting Akalabeth and it’s floppy disk in a ziplock plastic bag. Rushed home to play it on my apple //c. I was hooked. Played all the ultimas, including other origin games. In those days, I also played the original wolfenstein on the apple. It had synthesized sound for speech. That same sense of wonder and fun I experienced with these games hit me again when I played wolfenstein 3D, doom, and quake. Some of today’s games like assassin’s creed, Witcher, Zelda on switch give that same mix of emotion and fun.

I may not remember what I had for breakfast this morning, I can remember sound effects for a computer game I havent played in 20 years :) Edit: Thought you meant Wolfenstein 3d when you mentioned original Wolfenstein. I cant remember the sound effects for original Wolfenstein.
