Welcome to the third round of this 5200 HSC season!  Mr. Do’s Castle tied Joust with two votes each but it won the coin toss.  Play using the default settings.  Emulation is fine, as are custom controls. Pics preferred, but not required except for HSC wins and records.

 

The current record was set by Mangia-Boy with 73,740 points.  Bust it if you can for a bonus point.

I can remember. I haven't won so much rounds in my Atariage career.

I had trouble trying to get this game to play correct on Atari800win plus 4.0
Not sure if i had a bad bin file but this rar file works for me.

Didn't have this game back in the day, so after reading the manual and giving it a couple of runs I can safely say: Not a fan :-D

The 5200 version is not very well programmed but much better than the 2600 version.

If you want to see a masterpiece then check the Colecovision version.

I played around with the Colecovision version on my Mega Sg, and indeed it's a LOT better than the 5200 version.  

 

The controls are much snappier than the 5200 controls, though that might be down to bad emulation on OpenEmu.

Congratulations to Mangia-Boy for a fantastic performance in eliminating the most Unicorns in this challenging game. 
 

Moon Patrol is up next.
