About this product
Product Information
You can take a trip back in time, and enjoy the retro charm of a classic games console. River Raid for Atari 2600 is a classic vertically scrolling shooter game that can offer lots of excitement and adventure. It can bring the fun of vintage arcade games to your home console and offer hours of gameplay fun. In River Raid for Atari 2600, you control a fighter jet that is on a mission behind enemy lines. Your task is to fly down the river and shoot at fuel depots, helicopters, tankers, jets, and bridges. You gain points each time you destroy a structure or vehicle. Different enemy vehicles and structures have different difficulty levels, and you can earn more points by shooting difficult items. The gameplay does not offer enemy fire, but the game does end if you crash into enemy vehicles, structures, or the river bank. You can use the controller to move left and right, and the up and down joystick controls or the up and down buttons on a button controller let you move your jet either faster or slower. You must pay attention to your fuel supply throughout the game. If you do not regularly refuel your jet, the game will end, and you must start again. Activision originally released River Raid exclusively for the Atari 2600 home games console in 1982; however, the company later released the game for Atari 8 bit, Atari 5200, ColecoVision, Intellivision, MSX, IBM PCjr, and ZX Spectrum systems as well. This Activision product is the original Atari River Raid game for the 2600 consoles, and it is not compatible with other systems. Although the game was banned in some countries upon its release due to the violent content, the content is very tame by modern standards. It is appropriate for a variety of age groups. River Raid for Atari 2600 was a revolutionary game in its time. It was designed to run on the 2600 console, which was one of the first home consoles to contain a microprocessor and use ROM cartridges. The gameplay was innovative, and it was one of the first games to include scrolling, non-repetitive terrain, and unpredictable enemy craft behavior. Although the action is limited when compared to modern console games, it is still a popular title with many vintage gaming fans. The algorithms are sophisticated enough to make the gameplay challenging, offering hours of gaming fun. It was hugely influential and served as an inspiration for shooter genre games for years to come. River Raid for Atari 2600 comes in a ROM cartridge format. Some sellers offer the cartridge on its own, whereas others also offer extras, such as original packaging and instruction manuals. You can purchase River Raid for your own vintage games library or buy the title as a gift for a friend who loves retro gaming.
