what was the first game to invent the search and destroy game mode

[azul091s]

hello there, I was asking myself about what was the first game to invent the game mode that you see in the title. The first thing that comes in my mind is Counter Strike (I dont see any other game that is older than cs and that it has S&D), what are your thoughs (sorry for bad grammar).

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six is the earliest I can think of.

There is:
1
Counter Strike.

2
Rainbow 6 Double HELIX. "This game-type is very similar to the Bomb Defusal game-type of Valve's Counter-Strike series."

3
Return to Castle Wolfenstein.

All popular S&D multiplayer games at that time. All with release dates around same time give or take a year. Nothing else was worth playing.
But who had the original idea in development and the time that game took to actually develop before release?
Doubt we'll ever know.

Counter strike definitely because of the year.
