Does anyone know what some of the original computer games were?

Question

The game I am thinking of was on an old computer, and I think it was the original Windows program--before Windows 95 I am almost certain, It was a rectangle and a little silver ball ran around it and then another chased it, You used the arrows to move the first ball down thru the rectangle to keep away from the other ball,
As the rectangle was cross-sectioned it would disappear, and you would have to keep within the rectangle or go around it ahead of the other ball, If you weren't fast enough the chasing ball could come down so far and zap your ball, I think there was three hits on your ball before the game was over. I could sit for hours and play it. I can't remember what it was and haven't seen it since, nor been able to find it with a search engine. thanks!

Answer 1

Is the game "BlackBoard Ball Bounce"?

Answer 2

That sounds different? It kind of sounds like Jezz Ball, Snake, and Rodents Revenge all mixed together. I'd say jezz ball more than anything maybe. it's in the BOWEP (best of windows entertainment pack) if you wanted to give it a try. you can download it for free from (http://therhogue.com/tripeaks.htm) even if it's not the right game the BOWEP proves hours of entertainment
