Search for [atari breakout] and you can play Atari's Breakout game. It's an arcade game introduced in April 1976. The game hasan interesting story that involves Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak and it influenced Steve Wozniak's design for the Apple II computer.
"In the game, a layer of bricks lines the top third of the screen. A ball travels across the screen, bouncing off the top and side walls of the screen. When a brick is hit, the ball bounces away and the brick is destroyed. The player loses a turn when the ball touches the bottom of the screen. To prevent this from happening, the player has a movable paddle to bounce the ball upward, keeping it in play."
Google uses image search results for [atari breakout] instead of bricks, so the game is self-referential.
