Played as part of Atari 50.
Can't believe they made video games political... Jokes aside, wow, this is shockingly good. Every play feels vital since any fuckups stick with you for most likely the entire rest of your play session. Suuper anxious and tense, and when you lose you're hit with probably one of the best game over screens ever? It's crazy to see something this fully formed and concise this early on in the history of games, maybe arcade games kinda rule.

@Bojangles4th not sure, but it seems to be based on the arcade version, I believe the 2600 port shows up later on in this collection too, separately. Obviously it's not gonna be the same as the trackball and it's probably a bit easier so it's definitely something I'd be interested in playing on a real cabinet, same as most of these arcade ports that have their controls somewhat altered
Most of these games in this collection let you use the mouse for some of these which is very useful for stuff like trackball and paddle-controlled games, even if it's not perfect
Mouse is still way better than dpad or stick lol, gets you a lot closer. It also means grabbing a dedicated, generic trackball would be a valid option for this!!
