If you want the original use google and "scorched earth the mother of all games" as your keywords.

The deal with Scorched Earth is that it added a LOT more to the artillery duel game: weapons shopping, multiple players, varying levels of AI, various play and scoring modes, etc.

I think the original was "Sink the Bismark" on the ZX80. 2 black blocks, 32 sprite wide screen, text input of power and trajectory. Fantastic, all in 1K of memory!
