The term used in this manner was coined around 1979 by Steve Wright, the then-Director of Software Development in the Atari Consumer Division, to describe a hidden message in the <a href="/wiki/Atari" title="Atari">Atari</a> video game <a href="/wiki/Adventure_(Atari_2600)" class="mw-redirect" title="Adventure (Atari 2600)">Adventure</a>, in reference to an <a href="/wiki/Egg_hunt" title="Egg hunt">Easter egg hunt</a>. The earliest known video game Easter egg is in the 1973 video game <a href="/wiki/Lunar_Lander_(video_game_genre)#Graphical_games" title="Lunar Lander (video game genre)">Moonlander</a>, in which the player tries to land a <a href="/wiki/Lunar_module" title="Lunar module">Lunar module</a> on the Moon; if the player opts to fly the module horizontally through several of the game's screens, they encounter a <a href="/wiki/McDonald%27s" title="McDonald's">McDonald's</a> restaurant, and if they land next to it, the astronaut will visit it instead of standing next to the ship. The earliest known Easter egg in software in general is one placed in the "make" command for <a href="/wiki/PDP-6" title="PDP-6">PDP-6</a>/<a href="/wiki/PDP-10" title="PDP-10">PDP-10</a> computers sometime in October 1967–October 1968, wherein if the user attempts to create a file named "love" by typing "make love", the program responds "<a href="/wiki/Make_love,_not_war" title="Make love, not war">not war?</a>" before proceeding.<a href="#cite_note-Montfort-2">[2]</a><a href="#cite_note-Willaert-3">[3]</a> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Origin">Origin</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Easter_egg_(media)&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Origin">edit</a>]</div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1236090951">.mw-parser-output .hatnote{font-style:italic}.mw-parser-output div.hatnote{padding-left:1.6em;margin-bottom:0.5em}.mw-parser-output .hatnote i{font-style:normal}.mw-parser-output .hatnote+link+.hatnote{margin-top:-0.5em}@media print{body.ns-0 .mw-parser-output .hatnote{display:none!important}}</style><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/Adventure_(1980_video_game)#Easter_egg" title="Adventure (1980 video game)">Adventure (1980 video game) § Easter egg</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Adventure_Easteregg.PNG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/73/Adventure_Easteregg.PNG/220px-Adventure_Easteregg.PNG" decoding="async" width="220" height="137" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/73/Adventure_Easteregg.PNG 1.5x" data-file-width="325" data-file-height="203" /></a><figcaption>The secret room in <a href="/wiki/Adventure_(1980_video_game)" title="Adventure (1980 video game)">Adventure</a> with <a href="/wiki/Warren_Robinett" title="Warren Robinett">Warren Robinett</a>'s credit</figcaption></figure> The use of the term "<a href="/wiki/Easter_egg" title="Easter egg">Easter egg</a>" to describe secret features in video games originates from the 1980 video game <a href="/wiki/Adventure_(1980_video_game)" title="Adventure (1980 video game)">Adventure</a> for the <a href="/wiki/Atari_2600" title="Atari 2600">Atari 2600</a> game console, programmed by the employee <a href="/wiki/Warren_Robinett" title="Warren Robinett">Warren Robinett</a>. At the time, <a href="/wiki/Atari_Corporation" title="Atari Corporation">Atari</a> did not include programmers' names in the game credits, both to prevent competitors from poaching its developers as well as to deny developers a means to bargain with the management of the new owners, <a href="/wiki/Warner_Communications" class="mw-redirect" title="Warner Communications">Warner Communications</a>.<a href="#cite_note-4">[4]</a><a href="#cite_note-5">[5]</a> Robinett, who disagreed with his supervisor over this lack of acknowledgment, secretly programmed the message "Created by Warren Robinett" to appear only if a player moves their <a href="/wiki/Avatar_(computing)" title="Avatar (computing)">avatar</a> over a specific pixel (dubbed the "Gray Dot") during a certain part of the game and enters a previously "forbidden" part of the map where the message can be found. When Robinett left Atari, he did not inform the company of the acknowledgment that he included in the game. Shortly after his departure, the "Gray Dot" and his message were discovered by a player. Atari's management initially wanted to remove the message and release the game again, until this was deemed too costly. Instead, Steve Wright, the Director of Software Development in the Atari Consumer Division, suggested that they keep the message and, in fact, encourage the inclusion of such messages in future games, describing them as Easter eggs for consumers to find.<a href="#cite_note-Wolf-6">[6]</a><a href="#cite_note-7">[7]</a><a href="#cite_note-Baker-8">[8]</a><a href="#cite_note-9">[9]</a><a href="#cite_note-10">[10]</a><a href="#cite_note-11">[11]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="In_video_games">In video games</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Easter_egg_(media)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: In video games">edit</a>]</div> While Robinett's message in <a href="/wiki/Adventure_(Atari_2600)" class="mw-redirect" title="Adventure (Atari 2600)">Adventure</a> led to the first use of the phrase "Easter egg", Easter eggs were included in previous video games. The earliest known video game Easter egg is in <a href="/wiki/Lunar_Lander_(video_game_genre)#Graphical_games" title="Lunar Lander (video game genre)">Moonlander</a> (1973), in which the player tries to land a spaceship on the Moon.

One of these is "<a href="/wiki/Xyzzy_(computing)" title="Xyzzy (computing)">xyzzy</a>", a command which enables the player to move between two points in the game world.<a href="#cite_note-13">[13]</a> According to research by <a href="/wiki/Ed_Fries" title="Ed Fries">Ed Fries</a>, one of the earliest Easter eggs in a graphical video games could be found in <a href="/wiki/Starship_1" title="Starship 1">Starship 1</a> (1977), programmed by Ron Milner. By triggering the cabinet's controls in the right order, the player can have the message "Hi Ron!" appear on the screen. Fries describes it as "the earliest arcade game yet known that clearly meets the definition of an Easter egg". The existence of this Easter egg was not published until 2017, leading Fries to suggest that, as more than one hundred arcade games predate Starship 1, earlier Easter eggs may still be undiscovered.<a href="#cite_note-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-Fries-15">[15]</a> Fries says that some Atari arcade cabinets were resold under the <a href="/wiki/Kee_Games" title="Kee Games">Kee Games</a> label and include changes to the hardware that make the game appear different from the Atari version. <a href="/wiki/Anti-Aircraft_(video_game)" title="Anti-Aircraft (video game)">Anti-Aircraft II</a> (1975) includes a means to modify the circuit board to make the airplanes in the game appear as alien UFOs. Fries surmises that this feature may have been intended for a Kee Games release. For this reason, and because it requires a hardware modification, Fries questions whether it meets the definition of an Easter egg.<a href="#cite_note-Fries-15">[15]</a> In 2004, an Easter egg displaying programmer Bradley Reid-Selth's surname was found in Video Whizball (1978), a game for the <a href="/wiki/Fairchild_Channel_F" title="Fairchild Channel F">Fairchild Channel F</a> system.<a href="#cite_note-Wolf-6">[6]</a> Since Adventure, there has been a long history of video game developers placing Easter eggs in their games.<a href="#cite_note-Consalvo-16">[16]</a>: 19  Most Easter eggs are intentional—an attempt to communicate with the player or a way of getting even with management for a perceived slight. Easter eggs in video games take a variety of forms, from purely ornamental screens to aesthetic enhancements that change some element of the game during play. The Easter egg included in the original <a href="/wiki/Age_of_Empires_(video_game)" title="Age of Empires (video game)">Age of Empires</a> (1997) is an example of the latter; <a href="/wiki/Catapult" title="Catapult">catapult</a> projectiles are changed from stones to cows.<a href="#cite_note-Consalvo-16">[16]</a>: 19  More elaborate Easter eggs include <a href="/wiki/Level_(video_gaming)#Secret_levels" class="mw-redirect" title="Level (video gaming)">secret levels</a> and developers' rooms—fully functional, hidden areas of the game. Developers' rooms often include inside jokes from the <a href="/wiki/Fandom" title="Fandom">fandom</a> or development team and differ from a <a href="/wiki/Debug_menu" title="Debug menu">debug room</a> in that they are specifically intended for the player to find. Some games even include hidden <a href="/wiki/Minigame" title="Minigame">minigames</a> as Easter eggs.

The programmer, <a href="/wiki/Kazuhisa_Hashimoto" title="Kazuhisa Hashimoto">Kazuhisa Hashimoto</a>, created the code as a means to rapidly <a href="/wiki/Debug" class="mw-redirect" title="Debug">debug</a> the game by giving the player's avatar additional health and powers to easily traverse the game. These types of codes are normally removed from the game before it is shipped but, in the case of Gradius, Hashimoto forgot to remove it and the code was soon discovered by players. Its popularity inspired Konami to reuse the code and purposely retain it for many of its future games as an Easter egg.<a href="#cite_note-Wolf-6">[6]</a><a href="#cite_note-Björk-17">[17]</a><a href="#cite_note-20">[20]</a> Technical issues may also create unintentional Easter eggs. <a href="/wiki/Jon_Burton" title="Jon Burton">Jon Burton</a>, founder of <a href="/wiki/Traveller%27s_Tales" title="Traveller's Tales">Traveller's Tales</a>, said that many seemingly apparent Easter eggs in their <a href="/wiki/Sega_Genesis" title="Sega Genesis">Sega Genesis</a> games came about as a result of introducing programming tricks to get around some of the difficulty they had in getting Sega's strict certification for their games, <a href="/wiki/Exception_handling" title="Exception handling">catching any exceptions during execution</a> to bring the game back to a usable state as to pass certification.

Kabay asserts that this undermined the <a href="/wiki/Trusted_Computing_Base" class="mw-redirect" title="Trusted Computing Base">Trusted Computing Base</a>, a paradigm of trustworthy hardware and software in place since the 1980s, and is of concern wherever personal or confidential information is stored, as this may then be vulnerable to damage or manipulation.<a href="#cite_note-74">[74]</a> Microsoft created some of the largest and most elaborate Easter eggs, such as those in <a href="/wiki/Microsoft_Office" title="Microsoft Office">Microsoft Office</a>.<a href="#cite_note-75">[75]</a> In 2005, Larry Osterman of Microsoft acknowledged Microsoft Easter eggs, and his involvement in development of one, but described them as "irresponsible", and wrote that the company's <a href="/wiki/Operating_System" class="mw-redirect" title="Operating System">Operating System</a> division "has a 'no Easter Eggs' policy" as part of its <a href="/wiki/Trustworthy_Computing" class="mw-redirect" title="Trustworthy Computing">Trustworthy Computing</a> initiative.<a href="#cite_note-Larry-25">[25]</a> In 2006, <a href="/wiki/Douglas_W._Jones" title="Douglas W.
