The Sumerian Game
is one of the earliest known computer games and also one of the most influential, being a precursor to strategy, management, and turn-based simulation games. The source code was lost in the 1970s, but thanks to surviving game printouts, it has been possible to reconstruct it.
This book tells the story of The Sumerian Game, the people who developed it, how it worked, the known versions, and how it was reconstructed.
