What about “warlords” for the 2600, that’s 4 person breakout and is still fun!

@Dorolfe @futurebird I confess I've never played it, nor owned a 2600

I think he meant the hacking club that meets monthly called 2600... after the uh... modem.

If you see one at a stoop/garage sale with warlords and paddles (the “dial” controllers) it’s a good time. :p

Yes, this is the one this is the jam.

The other 2600 was named after the 2600 Hz tone that a blue box makes to signal the phone system to connect the following dtmf tones as a long distance call. Phreaking. 🤓😎😁
