Long before fan-made clones flooded the internet, there was David's Kong (1984). It’s a straight-up Donkey Kong knockoff, but with enough quirks to make you smile. The premise is unchanged: climb ladders, dodge barrels, save the damsel. The difference? Well, everything looks like it was drawn on graph paper by someone who had only seen Donkey Kong once, from across the room. Still, there’s a charm in its simplicity. It’s the kind of game you’d play on a rainy afternoon and then brag to your friends about “beating Kong,” even though Nintendo’s lawyers were probably sharpening their pencils when it came out.
