Pong, in many ways, represents the beginning of civilization as we know it today. Highlights of my tour of the Henry Ford Museum.

I never had an Atari 2600 while growing up, but I played Atari quite a bit when I was a kid, especially games like Frogger, Superman, Donkey Kong, Space Invaders, E.T., and Galaga.

Castle Master is a 1990 computer game written by British developers Teque Software Development and published by Incentive Software. It was released for the ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC, Commodore Amiga, Atari ST and IBM PC.
Initially the player chooses between playing as the prince or princess. The character not chosen is then taken away by a dragon to Castle Eternity. (The location of keys and some other items differ slightly between the two characters.)
The game requires the player, through a first-person view, to explore Castle Eternity. There are riddles on many of the castle walls, which give gameplay hints. There are also keys and pentacles hidden in various locations for the player to collect. Many rooms contain spirits which attack the player
