From Atari to Wii: The Boom in Gaming






The game Adventure has the distinction of being the first console game to have an Easter egg, the famous egg was first discovered by a gamer in Utah. The Easter egg was put in the game because at the time game developers did not receive any credit for their work. The game was based on a previous text based game by the same name made by Willie Crowther, and Don Woods. Adventure also has the distinction of being the first graphic based adventure game. Another Adventure first was the ability to carry items with you.

Being so innovative helped to make Adventure popular and allow it to sale a millions copies. Adventure is still loved by many fans. Adventure involves you searching for a chalice and bringing it to the Golden Castle. While you roam the land in search of the castle you face three dragons, mazes, and other mystical locations.

The game offers three levels of play, the second level is the easiest level to find the Easter egg in. A popular trick that is used is when you are eaten by the dragon you can press the game reset and bring the player back to life, this also brings the dragons back but all items are where you left them.
