The first computer game ever created was likely Bertie The Brain, a Tic Tac Toe game that was made in 1950. While it was technically not a video game, it was a computer game since it used logic. It only existed for 2 weeks for an exhibition. Before that was something known as the CRT Amusement Device, made it 1947. It was technically a video game, but it was not a computer game. It used basic electronics to produce visual effects, but used no logic circuitry.

In 1951, there was a computer game called Nim that was played on the Nimrod computer. The Nimrod did not use a CRT display (meaning it was not a "video game"), just columns of lights.

Spacewar was one of the earliest digital computer games. It was invented in 1962 by Steve Russell.
