The concept of an "Easter egg" in computer games, which refers to a hidden feature or message, originated in the game "Adventure" for the Atari 2600 in 1980. The game's creator, Warren Robinett, secretly added his name to a hidden room, and players had to find it.
Easter Egg's are not limited to software, but can also be found on circuit boards and various hardware components.
