Riddle of the Sphinx game cartridge for the Atari 2600 amazingly holds up as one of my VERY favorite video games of the last 40 years!
Riddle of the Sphinx is one of 24 game cartridges produced by a company named "imagic" during the first console war in the 1980s. Imagic made games primarily for the Atari 2600 and the Intellivision/Intellivision II(my FAVORITE console) but also made games for other consoles and computers such as the Colecovision and the Commodore line of computers. This review is for Riddle of the Sphinx as a game. I'm not going to go further into the fact that the game was released ONLY for the Atari 2600 and the clones of that console such as the Sears 2600 clone etc. I can only imagine just how much better looking and sounding Rots (Riddle of the Sphinx) would have been had the game been released for the far superior Intellivision II game console. However, even with the various hardware limitations of the Atari 2600; Rots is the very best game ever released for the 2600 in my 40 years of game playing experience. While the gameplay may initially appear simple... the strategies involved and the chances that you have to weigh and to decide whether to take (in mere split seconds) make the game very exciting. Beyond all of that I've mentioned is the incredibly unique logistical aspect of the game wherein the player is required to use BOTH joysticks to play the game. The left joystick is for movement and attacking and the right joystick is for accessing the players equipment. To my recollection there are no other 2600 games like Riddle of the Sphinx. Best 2600 game EVER!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
