Description

"Joust" is a classic arcade game released in 1982 that was later ported to various home consoles, including the Atari 7800. In the game, players control a knight riding on the back of a flying ostrich, engaging in epic battles against enemy knights riding buzzards. The objective is to defeat the enemies by colliding with them from a higher position, thus causing them to fall off their mounts. Players must also avoid touching the enemy knights from a lower position, as this will result in losing a life. The game features both cooperative and competitive gameplay, allowing two players to work together to defeat the enemy knights while also competing for a higher score.

"Joust" is known for its unique gameplay mechanics and challenging level design, requiring players to master the mechanics of flying and strategic positioning to succeed. The game's simple yet addictive gameplay, combined with its cooperative and competitive elements, made it a popular title in arcades during the early 1980s. The Atari 7800 version of "Joust" faithfully recreates the arcade experience, allowing players to enjoy the thrill of jousting in the comfort of their own homes. With its iconic characters and engaging gameplay, "Joust" remains a beloved classic among fans of retro gaming.
