Wow. Never would I have thought the day would come when one of the original co-founders of Activision and developer of Pitfall, David Crane, would team up with Keystone Kapers creator, Garry Kitchen to put out a BRAND NEW, in-the-box, game for the Atari 2600.

ADVENTURE
And the first video game easter egg
Adventure for the Atari 2600 contains the first video game easter egg. This video shows the gameplay with WITH commentary, I have an alternate “no commentary version”. This takes you through completing the game on level 2 and shows you the now infamous easter egg, the black or gray dot and secret room, mentioned in Ready Player One. All in just under 10 minutes.
