About

Press Start is a playable browser museum of video game history from 1962 to 2013. Visitors walk a foyer, enter a room for each era, and play a game on that room's TV. The author says the rooms are styled and scored to match each era and include easter eggs.

At a glance

Press Start is a short 3D museum of video game history that you walk through by scrolling. It is worth opening if you want a visual reminder of how game presentation changed across hardware eras.

Good fit

Casual game-history readers and designers who want a quick tour organized by year.

Consider something else when

Skip it if you need a sourced historical reference or a collection of playable original games. The part inspected is a museum exhibit with short captions.

Start here

Let the museum load, then select 1991 in the era navigation. The scene jumps to a Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis exhibit about how graphics hardware made a flat scene look deeper. Scroll to continue through the museum.

Cost and requirements

The public exhibit opened in a desktop browser without sign-in, payment or an installation. The site offers a sound toggle, and the 1991 exhibit was readable with sound off.

Limits to know

The era navigation spans selected years from 1962 through 2013. The trial checked the 1991 jump. Other exhibits, historical claims, mobile performance and sound remain unverified.
