It was a Soviet childhood so to be honest it sucked monkey balls. The electronics was a rare and very expensive thing. When I was a 12 year old child and passed the assessment exam at biology with "5" (an equivalent of "A" in the US school system), my mom bought me a
super duper calculator for almost her monthly salary and I was making the "computer games on it". The force of gravity on the Moon is 1.62. The exhaust flow rate and a specific impulse for a rocket? No problem, Sir! I had to put the impulse parameters like the amount of the fuel to be burned out at the specific time and after a minute of counting (yes, it was about minute to execute a simple code), the calculator told me the current height, the speed, the amount of fuel and oxygen to breathe. There was no graphics and no animation. Only these numbers I saw on the screen. Yes, a very interesting childhood for a 12 year old kid
This is the real toys the Soviet kid could afford... But hold on, I had a .22LR semi-automatic pistol - a real nice toy for a child.
This is my first computer, which I used to learn coding and to spend hours in space traveling, strategic war games, landing aircrafts, control the bathyscaphes and airships:
I even played various adventure games like "The Never Ending Story" on a piece of shit with a 105 byte memory. Bytes, not megabytes and not kilobytes. It was only able to remember 105 simple commands, like "plus", "minus", "sinus", "if.. then", "go to", "square" etc ("1" or "2" were TWO commands).
