About this product

Product Information

Originally released on the Atari 400, Star Raiders for the VCS is a space combat game played from a first-person perspective. You'll engage an enemy known as the Krylons across different sectors of the galaxy. Use the included Video Touch Pad to access the galactic map and plot your course, noting the position of enemy ships, before warping to the region. While in battle, you can raise your shields to defend against oncoming attacks and fire twin photon torpedoes at the enemy. Each action you initiate, from entering hyperspace to firing weapons, depletes your ship's energy reserves, which can only be replenished by visiting a starbase in between battles. Your objectives in Star Raiders are to defend this starbase and to eliminate all of the Krylons on the map, at which point the game will continue with a new, more challenging mission.

  • Difficult and not much depth, but fun for what it is!

    Pretty much what I expected, though it's more difficult than I thought it would be. Definitely not an easy game. I like the idea and general gameplay, but it would be nice if there was an enemy base to destroy as well as the ships (and maybe destroying it would give you some benefit, like fewer ships to destroy).

  • A great game to show off in your collection

    Very interesting idea for a game, very ahead of its time. You need to have the optional control pad and have read the manual for this game to be enjoyable. A great game to show off in your collection.

  • Fun, classic game well done on the 2600.

    A grpahical verison of the olde text-based star trek games; plays very well on the 2600. If buying, make sure you get the controller with overlays and manuals, they are essential.

  • Works great

    Packaged very well
