Abandonware DOS title

Classics: games like Pong

Pong, one of the earliest arcade video games, was developed by Atari and released in 1972. The game simulates table tennis, with players controlling paddles that move vertically to hit a ball back and forth across the screen. The objective is to score points by making the opponent miss the ball. Each player uses a simple knob to control their paddle, ensuring the gameplay is accessible yet challenging.

The graphics of Pong are minimalist, consisting of simple two-dimensional lines and dots. Despite its simplicity, the game was a massive success and is credited with helping to establish the video game industry. Its straightforward mechanics and competitive nature made it popular in arcades, bars, and eventually home consoles.
