QBasic Gorillas

Gorillas, also known as "Gorillas.bas," is a turn-based artillery game that was included as a sample program with Microsoft QBasic, an IDE and interpreter for a variant of the BASIC programming language. QBasic was commonly bundled with MS-DOS and early versions of Windows during the early 1990s. The goal of "Gorillas" is to hit the opposing gorilla with an explosive banana. Players take turns entering the angle and velocity at which to throw their banana, trying to adjust for gravity and the cityscape obstacles.
