This review is from: Warlords (Video Game)

Even though I was born way after the Atari 2600 was the king of game consoles, I inherited the system by means of a sibling going off to college, to this day I still remember the fun I had playing this game. Yes, compared to today's graphical technology and extensive networking capabilities, this game is a bit lacking. However, the amount of fun I have had ranks this game as one of the best I have ever played.

Consider this game to be the first Mario Party, Fusion Frenzy, and etc. The multilayer was beyond epic. Since I can't really explain the objective of the game I am just going to copy-and-paste the description from the Moby Games web site.

"Each of the four players are in one of the corners of the screen guarded by a castle. You control a small shield which can be moved around the edge of the castle. To survive you need to use the shield to block a ball which bounces around the screen. If the ball hits your castle, it will take out some of the bricks. If a hole forms in the castle wall and the ball makes it though and hits your warlord, then you are out of the game. The last player left alive wins the battle, and the first player to win five battles wins the game!"

The quirky controller and the basic gameplay will undoubtedly forever be remembered by me.
