  • Tennis for two

    Tennis for two
    This game was the first game ever played in video games history. Players could turn a knob to adjust the angle of the ball, and push a button to hit the ball towards the other player.
  • Spacewar!

    Spacewar!
    This game works by trying to destroy the other against an astronomically correct star field as well as other characteristics that reflect real-world physics.
  • Space invaders

    Space invaders
    Space Invaders is a very simple game by modern standards, but it was a technological marvel in its time. Typical levels consist of a player piloting a laser cannon to battle columns of descending aliens while using shields to block alien fire.
  • Missile command

    Missile command
    The game is staged as a series of levels of increasing difficulty; each level contains a set number of incoming enemy weapons. The weapons attack both the cities and the missile batteries and can destroy any target with one hit. Enemy weapons are only able to destroy three cities during one level.
  • Dr. mario

    Dr. mario
    Mario assumes the role of a doctor, tossing two-colored medical capsules into a medicine bottle representing the playing field. This area is populated by viruses of three colors — red, yellow, and blue — which stay in their starting positions until removed.
  • Mario tennis

    Mario tennis
    As in a game of tennis, players have to hit the ball back and forth until one side misses it. In normal matches, players who earn a successful shot score 15 points; at 40 points, players earn a game point, and have to score another successful shot in order to win the game.
  • Red dead redemption

    Red dead redemption
    Red Dead Redemption uses an Honor system, which is increased by morally positive deeds, such as capturing an outlaw alive or saving a stranger, and decreased by negative choices like murder. The Fame system affects how non-player characters (NPCs) react to players based on Honor.
  • Call of duty:Warzone

    Call of duty:Warzone
    The objective of Call of Duty: Warzone is to survive until you're the last player or squad on the map. In phases, the map will force players into one isolated location by releasing poisonous gas from the edges of the map. You can survive in the gas for a short amount of time, and even longer if you have a Gas Mask.
