Summarize an Atari game in 10 words or less


Mind Master

Recommended Posts

Here are a few I made up:

 

Haunted House: Get in, get urn, get out, hopefully alive.

 

Pole Position: Prepare to qualify then prepare to race!

 

Karate: Kick butt on screen, then kick butt of game designer!

 

Moonsweeper: Dodge flares, rescue spacemen, lather, rinse, and repeat.

 

 

And a haiku for Haunted House:

 

Enter the mansion

Will you make it out alive

Or get scared stiff?

Just came up with these. Enjoy.

 

River Raid

Shoot all enemies.

Slow down to get all the fuel.

Avoid hitting walls.

 

Football

Three on three Action

Pretty much like the real thing

Except more flicker.

 

Barnstorming

Fly through the red barns

Then over all the windmills.

Don't touch either one.

 

Basketball

A one on one game.

Purple and green guy shoot hoops.

It's 3D, sort of.

 

Berzerk

Arcade Translation

Kill robots by shooting them

No diagonals.

 

Bowling

Ten frames of bowling

It's got dozens of options

None of them are fun.

 

Burgertime

Just like the arcade.

Make burgers, avoid white blob

It's an egg, I think.

 

Chopper Command

Fly and save people,

This game seems so familiar.

Oh yeah. Choplifter

 

Zaxxon

Remember this game?

One of the first 3D games.

Well now it's 2D

 

Frogger

Hop. Hop hop. Hop hop.

Hop hop hop hop hop hop hop.

Hop hop hop hop splat.

 

Journey Escape

Other than the name

Nothing like the arcade game.

Don't stop believin'.

 

Keystone Kapers

Chase the criminal

Avoid the toys, catch your man

then do it again.

 

Pac-Man

Eat all the pellets.

Avoid the ghosts and repeat.

Get used to blinking.

 

Pitfall

Simple game to learn.

Run, jump, swing. Played it for years

Still haven't beat it.
