Galaxy Game
1971 · Arcade
Galaxy Game is a space combat arcade game developed in 1971 during the early era of video games. Galaxy Game is an expanded version of the 1962 Spacewar!, potentially the first video game to spread to multiple computer installations. It features two spaceships, "the needle" and "the wedge", engaged in a dogfight while maneuvering in the gravity well of a star. Both ships are controlled by human players.

Where to buy
Galaxy Game was a coin-op original — it never had a shelf release, so there is no boxed copy to buy. What you can buy is the hardware itself, or a later home conversion.
Nothing genuine listed right now — no arcade board or cabinet, and no home conversion we could confirm is this game. We would rather show you nothing than the wrong machine.
