  I played this game A LOT in the early 80s. Sometimes I'd imagine myself either piloting an X-Wing or a Viper (if you know old Sci-Fi shows you'll get the reference). So glad to rediscover it.

  The only 2600 cartridge I still own from the early 80's, and the game that had me actively trying to earn the patches that Activision would send with a picture of your score on the screen. Since first-person-shooter games are so popular now, we have Starmaster to thank as being one of the pioneers of the genre.

  what a great game - improves on Star Raiders and Star Ship plus a little bit of the old Star Trek game we played on green-bar paper back in the days of VAX and Mainframes....
