The Arcade Game That Took My Lunch Money Joust, released in 1982, stood out in arcades for its unique flight-based combat and one of the earliest true simultaneous two-player modes. Controlling knights riding flying ostriches felt unlike anything else at the time. The competitive and cooperative gameplay made Joust an unforgettable part of gaming history. | Broken Arcade
