Space War
I get the impression that Dick and Jane up there are just looking at the screen and wondering what the chunks are supposed to be.
Space War is the only game we played on the RCA Studio II that we didn't hate with rabid hatefulness.
Is it anything like what you think of when you think of "Spacewar"? No, no it isn't, because there are no dueling spaceships.
There are two games. One where you shoot a guided missile to destroy large and small UFOs and another where you fire shots that ricochet at a vertically oscillating square. For the record we DID enjoy these games for almost 5 minutes each before we'd felt like we'd seen enough of the same thing.
This was the most joy we had on the RCA Studio II. It's downhill from here. Again, let me remind you that this descent into madness is not without its interesting attempts at fun or education. Just that there's nothing slightly fulfilling about it.
