Air Sea Battle
Air-Sea Battle is a game developed by Atari for the 2600 console in 1982. It was one of the nine original launch titles for the Atari 2600 when released in September 1977. It was published by Sears as Target Fun and was the pack-in game with the original Sears Tele-Games version of the Atari VCS.
There are six basic game types available in Air-Sea Battle, and for each type, there are one or two groups of three games, for a total of twenty-seven game variants. Within each group, variant one is the standard game, variant two features guided missiles that can be steered left or right after being fired, and variant three pits a single player (using the right gun) against a computer opponent, which simply fires continuously at the standard angle or speed. In all games, players shoot at targets (enemy planes or ships, shooting gallery targets, or each other, depending on the chosen game) competing to get a higher score. Each round lasts two minutes and sixteen seconds; the player with the highest score after time expires is the winner, unless a player wins (and ends the game) by reaching 99 points before time runs out.
