Description

"Crash Dive" for the Atari 2600, released by 20th Century Fox Games in 1983, is an action-packed submarine simulation game that stands out in the Atari library for its unique gameplay and thematic depth. In the game, players take control of a submarine with the objective of navigating through enemy waters, avoiding obstacles, and engaging in combat with enemy ships. The gameplay is divided into two main modes: a periscope view for targeting and firing torpedoes at surface ships, and a side-scrolling view where the submarine must avoid underwater mines and manage its depth to avoid crashing into the ocean floor or surfacing too high.

The game was developed during a period when the video game market was embracing more complex and thematic games. "Crash Dive" features several innovative elements for its time, such as the dual-mode gameplay and the requirement to manage the submarine's air supply and damage levels. Graphically, the game was praised for its detailed sprites and convincing simulation of underwater environments. The use of color and sound was also noted for enhancing the immersive experience of submarine warfare. "Crash Dive" offered gamers of the early 1980s a challenging and strategically demanding experience, expanding the scope of what could be achieved within the technical limitations of the Atari 2600.
