Atari is back with another early war game. However, unlike the last videos with Missile Command, Battlezone, and Chopper Command, which are on land, this time, we are in the SEA, called Submarine Commander, released in 1982. Based on battles the Navy faces, the objective in the game is to shoot down and sink waves of the three enemy ships across the horizon - Tankers, Destroyers, and Patrol Boats, with deadly torpedoes before you run out of fuel. In the highest difficulty which I played three times, enemies can shoot at you with depth charges which can damage your submarine. The Destroyers and speedy PT Boats immediately sink with one torpedo, but with the bulky Tankers, they must be struck twice. Interestingly, this game is one of three Atari 2600 titles published by Sears (yes, the Sears store).
