==Easter Egg== ''Adventure'' is often noted as having the first video game "[[easter egg]]." At the time of its creation, Atari didn't credit any of its authors for their work, so Robinett included a hidden message in the game identifying himself as the creator, thus creating, at the time, the first known easter egg. Not only was Adventure the first action-adventure game and the first to include an easter egg, it was also the first ever to allow a character to carry and use moveable objects. Until then, other games of its type allowed a character to have a stash of items, but required the player to select which one to use at any given moment, usually through keyboard or joystick input. ''Adventure'' allowed the player to drop one item and pick up another without having to type in any commands. In 2004, an easter egg was found in the video game Video Whizball for the Fairchild Channel F console, which was released a full year before Adventure was, thus making ''it'' the first easter egg. Coincidently, the easter egg in Video Whizball was the developers name, as the easter egg in Adventure was.
