https://www.arcade-history.com/?n=fire-truck&page=detail&id=854 - Among my last arcade videos from California Extreme 2024 (I'll be getting back to "regularly scheduled programming" soon) is a rare game from Atari that marks a milestone in gaming history - it was one of the first (possibly the first) co-operative video games ever. The only issue is that it was a timed game - you're not actually trying to get to a fire to put out. You're just seeing how far you can get before the clock runs out.
