Do you love trivia games and learning new facts? If so, you're in for a treat with this video. In this video, I'm going to ask you a trivia question that will blow your mind: What was the first computer game ever created and when was it released?

You might think that the first computer game was something like Pong or Space Invaders, but you'd be wrong. The first computer game was actually created way back in 1962 by a group of students at MIT. It was called Spacewar! and it was a space combat game that ran on a huge mainframe computer. Spacewar! was one of the first games to use a video display and it influenced many later games.

But wait, there's more. Spacewar! was not the first electronic game ever created. That honor goes to a game called Bertie the Brain, which was a tic-tac-toe game built by Josef Kates for the 1950 Canadian National Exhibition. Bertie the Brain used vacuum tubes and lights to play against human opponents.

So, how did you do? Did you know the answer to this trivia question? If not, don't worry. You just learned something new and amazing. And if you did know the answer, congratulations! You're a trivia master.
