1982 - Pengo

from The History of Video Games

Pengo is here, and with it comes the classic block-pushing mechanic seen inside every dungeon and temple puzzle game for the next 40 years! But don't worry, this one has a cute penguin so it's worth it. We also check out Mrs. Dynamite by Universal, Smurf's Rescue at Gargamel's Castle for the Colecovision, and Wiping by Nichibutsu! (checks notes....it's not actually called Wiping right?!...right?....)Website -https://historyofvideogamespodcast.comYoutube - https://www.youtube.com/@historyofvideogamespodcast1994Twitter - https://twitter.com/HistoryofVideo1Email - [email protected] - Ben & WesMusic - Arranged and recorded by Ben
