A strange little side quest
Kill Them All belongs to a much longer story of play than a browser tab might suggest. Space Invaders arrived in 1978 and helped turn electronic games from an arcade curiosity into mainstream entertainment. Another piece of context lands nicely beside it: Computer Space reached arcades in 1971 and became one of the earliest commercial electronic arcade games, even though its controls proved demanding for many players. The screen is modern; the urge to test skill, pattern and timing definitely is not.
