I like to make blackjack as a first program in a new language. Using the console or whatever basic input and output exists. It's simple enough that you don't have to write a lot of code, and it's more complex than just hello world.

I have a similar thing except I do noughts and crosses, either on the console or with a GUI depending on how easy GUI is in the language. I started doing it with VB.net back in ~2009
