I tried to play chess but two of my opponents were playing competitive checkers as a third person walked in with Game of Thrones in hand confused cause they thought this was the book club.

Can it be stored on a computer? (like, as a data representation)

Hmm…. If I’m reading your question right, I would say yes.  A representation of it can be stored on a computer.

Would the representation be significantly limited in some way compared to the "real" thing?

Doesn’t everything that can be represented by a computer also exist outside one, at least in someone’s mind if nowhere else?

Representations of it live in people's minds, of course, but for any project of sufficient complexity there is no other place it can truly exist then in the computer implementation.

Anyway, did it exist in the second millennium? (i.e before the year 2001)
