Joust
Atari 7800, 1987
In this two-player aerial jousting game, players control knights mounted on flying creatures and engage in combat against enemy knights. Using a joystick and button, players can steer their mount left or right, ascend or descend by flapping their wings, and hover in midair. The goal is to unseat enemy knights by colliding with them while ensuring your lance is at a higher vertical level. Defeated enemies turn into eggs, which players can collect for bonus points. If left unchecked, the eggs hatch into more difficult knights.
The game progresses through waves of enemies, with each wave featuring increasingly challenging opponents. Players must defeat all the enemy knights and collect or destroy their eggs to complete a wave. As players advance, the difficulty increases, requiring precise timing and strategy to succeed. The game combines fast-paced aerial combat with an evolving challenge, rewarding skillful play with rising difficulty levels.
