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

Classic Arcade JOUST (1982) Released in 1982 by Williams Electronics, JOUST changed arcade gaming forever. Players ride flying ostriches, flapping to stay airborne while knocking rival knights off their mounts in mid-air combat. It’s a perfect mix of physics, skill, and chaotic two-player co-op action. | Broken Arcade
