Video games designers come up with stories, characters and rules. Their job is to create an entirely original, entertaining and captivating universe. A bit like screenwriters, but for gaming.

The earliest title in the history of video gaming is Pong, launched by Atari in 1972. Inspired by table tennis, it allowed two players to pass a ball from one side of the screen to the other. When you put it like that, it doesn’t sound like the most exciting game in the world... Nevertheless, the game went on to generate more than $40 million in sales by 1975. Pac-Man and Tetris soon followed, along with many more classics...
