Possibly, but we have examples of games from the oldest known cities, and quite possibly from before even then. Gaming appears to be a human universal.

True, but I would put video games that simulate a reality and make you care about characters in a different category from ancient games of checkers. Or modern games of checkers

Now I'm curious whether games like what we'd consider a video game with a 'player character' and so forth existed in ancient times in some form

[cbrachyrhynchos]

We have toy swords and spears from ancient Egypt, so it's pretty safe to say that people have been engaging in imaginative roleplay (scripted and otherwise) for a long time.

I'm not convinced that multimedia is all that big of a game-changer. Western culture has a long history of moral panics regarding both new media and new games, and the best game stories don't seem to have anything to do with realism.

So is trying to ignore the overwhelming freedom inherent in human existence.
