Surround is a video game programmed by Alan Miller and published by Atari, Inc. for the Atari Video Computer System (Atari VCS).

The game plays similarly to the arcade game Blockade (1976), which allows players to navigate a continuously moving block around an enclosed space as a wall trails behind it. Every time the opposite player has their brick hit a wall, the opposing player earns a single point, with the winner being the first to collect ten points.
