Review
Starmaster for the Atari 2600 is an impressive space combat simulator that pushes the limits of the system with its ambitious gameplay and depth. Players take on the role of a starfighter pilot defending sectors from enemy ships while managing fuel, shields, and repairs—a surprisingly strategic experience for a console better known for arcade simplicity. The visuals are clean and functional, and the map-based navigation adds a layer of immersion rarely seen on the 2600. With multiple difficulty levels and engaging dogfights, Starmaster stands out as one of the console's more thoughtful and rewarding titles.
