A strange little side quest
Even a quick game like Instaphoto Divas Challenge sits on top of decades — and sometimes centuries — of ideas.

In 1958, Tennis for Two used an analog computer and an oscilloscope to turn simple physics into a playable tennis-like demonstration. It is a good reminder that simple game mechanics can carry a surprising amount of history.
