   (Overall) Seaquest was a game made by Activision in 1983 for the Atari 2600.  Activision is known for such titles as Pitfall!, Kaboom!, and Stampede. How does Seaquest stand out from the other games on the Atari 2600 and why should you care? Well you are in control of a submarine. You have to save swimming people to get points. Some of the enemies you will see are fish, sharks and other subs. You can ether avoid your enemies or shoot em down with your harpoon/laser (can't really tell). Don't forget to go to the top for some air! That's right you have an air meter and have to get a breath every now and then. I find having to keep getting air gives the game a little bit more difficulty but in the best way. Lets move on to the graphics!

  (Graphics) Seaquest is made by Activision so you can probably guess that the graphics will be at least pretty good. The graphics are not just pretty good they are very good. I wouldn't go as far to say they are the best on the console because they are not but they don't have to be do they? You only get one background from what I can tell. It is very colorful though. Pretty nice to look at.

  (Sound) The sound in this game is really nothing special. It sounds the same as any other Atari 2600, Intellivision, or Colecovision game you might play. Sound isn't everything though.

  (Addictiveness) This is what Seaquest does best. It is hard for me to put this game down!. Like most games from this time the goal is to get the high score, so you will never be able to beat it. If you like games like this you could probably play it for hours and never get board with it. Challenge your friends or beat your high score, whats better?

  (Story) Yea sorry no story. Does it really need a story? You are just in a submarine and you have to save people and blow up fish do you need anything else?

  (Depth) Seaquest is all about the high score. You can't really beat it so it can't really end. Unlimited fun!

  (Difficulty) Seaquest has the perfect amount of difficulty. Its not to hard not to easy. You will have to have quick reflexes and a strong trigger finger. Some games from this time are ether way to hard or so easy you don't even want to play it.

  (End) Seaquest is a game I always play when I dust off the ol Atari 2600. I have loved this game since I was very young and still love it to this day. I think enjoyability has more to do with the overall score then graphics or sound should have. This game makes up for have just plan sound and alright graphics because it is just fun. That's really all you can say about it. Its just fun. If you haven't played Seaquest you should really give it a try!

Great review, GJ. Definitely did great on detailing a game on an Atari. Keep up the good work!

Yeah, I haven't played this too much, but it's one of the better games that I've played on the Atari. It's alright.

This is one of the most entertaining reviews that I've found for an Atari 2600 game. It's high quality, well detailed, and actually manages to give the reader a few laughs along the way.
