What got you into coding ? (aside from money) (lemm.ee)

To give some context, I'm a developer myself and once I had a conversation with someone who has not "tasted" programming, but was wondering about passion and career. I was asked what I like about programming. My answer was that my interest in it came from writing small scripts when I was young to automate things.

Aside from being a career, I'm curious what got you into coding ?

Man, games must be some of the first software children actually get a hold of. It's also why I got into programming.
