Bertie the Brain was one of the first computer games and one of the first games developed in the early history of video games. It was built in Toronto by Josef Kates for the 1950 Canadian National Exhibition. The four-metre (13 ft) tall computer allowed exhibition attendees to play tic-tac-toe against an artificial intelligence. The player entered a move on a lighted keyboard in the shape of a three-by-three grid, and the game played out on a grid of lights overhead. The machine had an adjustable difficulty level. After two weeks on display by Rogers Majestic, the machine was dismantled at the end of the exhibition and largely forgotten as a curiosity.
We may have the game available for more than one platform. Bertie the Brain is currently available on these platforms:
