Devil's Dungeon 1977 TRS-80

The first commerical cRPG released for home computers was Charles William Engel's Devil's Dungeon of 1977.

Coded in the Basic programming language (Micro-Soft, 1975), Devil's Dungeon features dungeon exploration, combat encounters, experience-point acquisition, wealth accumulation, 2x character stats and environmental hazards.

Devil's Dungeon running on the TRS-80: the above infographic is to be read row by row, from left to right. After assembling the infographic I removed a few lines of text-repetition (in the 6th panel) and changed the font color from native blue to white in order to increase readability. Otherwise, this is exactly how Devil's Dungeon presents itself.
