Call some friends and mix it up with five wild and crazy games: Bop a Buggy, Tug of War, Wizards' Keep, Down on the Line, and Handcar. Go head-to-head, or in teams of two. Compete against people, not a cold computer. Everyone plays at once.
This game was originally packaged with Video Jogger and the Foot Craz Activity Pad. When a bug appears in one of the boxes, step on it quickly or lose a life. But if a butterfly appears, DON'T step on it or lose a life. You can end up jumping around pretty fast. You can also play this game with a joystick, but it's not as fun.
In Exocet, you first pilot a spacecraft over the surface, shooting the defense towers in your path. The larger towers are too large to fly around, and they must be hit at the point where they fire. When you have traveled a particular distance, you will find an opening to the underground passage. There you continue to destroy the various things flying around.
Also sold under the name "Cruise Missile" by Froggo Games.
Donald has entered the Duckburg boat race and has taken to the sea with his speedboat. The objective is to steer the boat away from the obstacles along the way to the finish line and do so as fast as possible without losing pressure on the throttle. The game takes place across multiple screens which each presents its own obstacle patterns and challenges.
The object of this Combat-like game is to protect your base from the advancing enemy tanks. Drive around in your tank destroying the other tanks, as they come after you four at a time. The game ends when you run out of tanks or your base is destroyed.
You are trying to become a Spectra-Warrior. To do this, you must fly through the levels of warp zones, destroying radioactive beacons. The higher the level, the more you need to destroy. These beacons are guarded by impact exploding saucers. You can destroy these saucers for points or avoid them. When you destroy a saucer or beacon, do not remain in the same place as the debris will collide with you. You have ninety-nine seconds to destroy the number of beacons indicated by the number on the bottom right of the screen per level.
Spitfire Attack is a flight simulator/target shooting game. Shoot down the enemy planes, and destroy various ground installations, including anti-aircraft guns that shoot at you. The game was packaged with the large Flight Command Controller, which was a glorified joystick that had the look of an aircraft machine gun.
This game has you placed in a spacecraft of some kind (the cover art makes it look like a futuristic passenger jetliner with weapons attached, but I don't know honestly!) flying through what looks like a cave, while taking on several enemies that attack you from the right side of the screen. After surviving a few rounds, you'll go into an 'underground' cave where you fly through a treacherous corridor and attempt to dock with a refueling station (I'd guess.) After that, it's back to blasting targets again. Lather, rinse, repeat.
You are having dinner when a horde of animals (mostly) insects arrive and want to steal your food. Your only weapon is insecticide liquid which you can spray in two directions (up and down). This game is a rip-off of Atari 2600 game "Plaque Attack" where you are defending your teeth against food with toothpaste.
As one of the Xonox "Double Ender" cartridges, this features Robin Hood and Sir Lancelot. Each of the two games was released separately, though it's generally more common to find them in this form. This particular double-ender is the most common to feature either of these games.
The Double-Ender is two games in one - each end of the cartridge has a different game. These cartridges are about 2.5 inches longer than a standard cartridge, and the case is wider in the middle. There is one long label that is typically blue, with game art for both sides split diagonally down the middle. Titles are printed in red text against a yellow banner. All the titles found on the Double-Enders can also be found in standard single-ended cases.
Xonox, based in Minnesota, started developing Atari cartridges during the height of the 2600's popularity. They contributed many high quality games available for the early platforms. Xonox capitalized on the novelty and perceived value of "double-ender" cartridges. These could be inserted into
In the single-player mode, the player controls a G.I. Joe training camp on the bottom of the screen protected by a barrier and armed with two laser cannons. In this mode the goal is to keep the giant Cobra-operated robot snake from destroying the shield and thus the training camp by hitting it eight times. The Cobra robot shoots venom and laser beams.
In two-player cooperative mode control of the G.I. Joe training game is split between two players as they work to destroy the Cobra robot. In the two-player competition mode one player controls the Cobra robot and another player controls the training camp.
Cobra Strike was the first video game to use the G.I. Joe license. The U.K. version of the game was renamed Action Man: Action Force.
Synopsis:
"The Action Force training camp is under siege from a giant Cobra Combat Machine built by the evil Baron Ironblood. As the Cobra looms over the camp the Action Force recruits run to shelter from its vaporizing venom and piercing laser beams. Man your positions! Defend the c
Swordquest is an unfinished series of video games produced by Atari, Inc. in the 1980s as part of a contest, consisting of three finished games and a planned but never released fourth game. All of the games came with a comic book that explained the plot, as well as containing part of the solution to a major puzzle that had to be solved to win the contest. Fireworld was the second of the four games. Its room structure was based on the tree of life.
Classical Atari 2600 game! In Asteroid Belt you are flying - guess what - through an asteroid belt. Typical for Atari is the lack of and ending, so you´re shooting asteroids for points. You can fly and also shoot in four different directions and even control your speed. Sometimes there is a giant UFO trying to catch and kill you, so the fast speed is comming in handy, although you have to avoid the asteroids and flee from the giant UFO.
This is one of the few non-popular Atari games amongst the universe of Atari Space-games that is really good.
