Related termsFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A personal computer game (also known as a computer game or simply PC game) is a game played on a personal computer, rather than on a video game console or arcade machine. Computer games have evolved from the simple graphics and gameplay of early titles like Spacewar!, to a wide range of more visually advanced titles. PC games are created by one or more game developers, often in conjunction with other specialists (such as game artists) and either published independently or through a third party publisher. They may then be distributed on physical media such as DVDs and CDs, as Internet-downloadable shareware, or through online delivery services such as Direct2Drive and Steam. PC games often require specialized hardware in the user's computer in order to play, such as a specific generation of graphics processing unit or an Internet connection for online play, although these system requirements vary from game to game.

I vaguely remember it, but it was a computer game where you're a kid in a school and you have to find clues as to who the boss is. You go in separate classrooms. I think you have a cap on. It's really kinda corny, but it's killin me that I can't remember it. I think the "enemy" guys were like robots or somethin. Thanks for any help!
