niceandgames's video: Stellar Track Atari 2600 -- Nice and Games

Stellar Track. Sounds like a sweeeeeeet action game. But notice the word "track." That's kind of what you do in this one. Track the alien ships across the galaxy. Still sounds like a sweeeeeeet action game. But it is not. It is sweeeeeeeeet, but it is actually a turn-based strategy game. Yep. SWEEET! This is based on the 1970s computer game Star Trek and it puts you at the helm of a starhip, entering text commands and watching simple photon torpedoes slowly make their way across the screen. Among other things. I like this one, and actually liked it as a kid. I don't remember why we got it, though. Must've been some mistake? Maybe it sounded like an action game and then turned out to be...not an action game. Maybe it was one of those purchases a parent makes on their own which turns out to be bad...except in this case it worked out! Who knows what I am blabbering on about now. Nonetheless, Stellar Track is sweeeeet. If you like simple turn-based strategy games. Man, my video descriptions are terrible aren't they.
