Starship 1 is a first-person shooter[4] space combat game developed and manufactured for arcades in 1977 by Atari, Inc. The game, which takes great inspiration from the television series Star Trek, contains the first known Easter egg in any arcade game.

As enemies appear onscreen, the player tries to center the enemy in the crosshairs and shoot it with his "phasors" by pulling a trigger on the control yoke. Alternatively, the player has 5 "proton torpedoes" per game that can be fired by pressing a large white button on the dashboard. This will destroy any enemy ship on screen, regardless of whether it is in the crosshairs (which are not game generated graphics but taped directly on the monitor screen).

Four distinct enemies appear: Star Trek-inspired starships worth 50 points, eyed worm-like alien creatures and Klingon type ships each worth 100 points, and a flashing flying saucer craft worth 200 points.

The player does not view the game monitor directly; the monitor is recessed in the cabinet, and the player views a reflected image of the monitor in a half-silvered mirror with a space background.

You pilot the Starship 1, from a first-person point of view, avoiding planets and shooting enemy space ships for different point values. Achieving 3500 points before time runs out earns you extended play in 'hyperspace'.
