my favorite is the original star wars on the pdp-1.
i think it came from lincoln labs, but i played it

a very good replica was done on unix by dmr.
I wonder if this unix spacewar is still around. What was used as the
display?
Last month I got spacewar to run on my FPGA PDP-6 and PDP-10. There's
still some work needed on the CRT simulation, but it's already looking
quite good.
The PDP-1 version can be played here (from where i stole the CRT
simulation): https://www.masswerk.at/spacewar/
