Released in early 1980, Adventure is an action-adventure game programmed by Warren Robinett and published by Atari for the 2600 (then VCS). The player controls a square avatar whose quest is to explore an open-ended environment to find a magical chalice and return it to the golden castle. The game world is populated by roaming enemies: dragons that can eat the avatar and a bat that randomly steals and moves items around the game world. Adventure introduced new elements to console games, including enemies that continue to move even when offscreen.

This is probably the only game I ever bought because of an Easter egg. I saw the solution in a magazine, and since I loved adventure type games and dragons, I figured, why not? It was so much fun.

My sister and I LOVED this game so much! ♥We'd do weird stuff like let a dragon eat us if the bat was carrying it and then we'd go for a ride around the kingdom. 😂 We never got to the easter egg though. I don't think we knew what those were back in the day.

@@thatvikingtemper Hahaha I did the same thing too! Also, I never got the Easter egg until a couple of weeks ago. I don’t know why I never did but after doing it once, it’s easy. Only took me 44 years! 😂
