Top 16-20 best games in 1975, review: Goal/4, F-114, Electrotennis, Drop Zone 4, Avenger



Goal/4  Arcade

This is soccer implemented through the Pong concept. The arcade machine itself is horizontal, resembling a table.

In single-player mode, you try to score a goal by hitting the ball into moving gates.

In the multiplayer version, you have a goalkeeper and two attackers. If there are more than two players, these roles are distributed separately. Also, a more defensive player has 3 paddles for control, while a more offensive one, closer to the opponent, has two paddles.


F-114  Arcade

It was a quite ambitious game for that time. Here, you sat in a cockpit, which you moved with a joystick to more realistically simulate a fighter jet's cabin.

The screen was semi-curved, as the image was projected onto it. In addition to planes, the targeting reticle and explosions were projected on the screen.


Electrotennis  Console

It was one of the first Pong console clones, this time from Japan.

Movement could be made in two directions - horizontally and vertically. To display the score, dials on the console itself had to be used.

The most notable feature was its completely wireless architecture. The console itself could run on batteries, and it interacted with the TV through a wireless television signal.


Drop Zone 4  Arcade

Here, you control only with one button. The plane will fly on its own without your control. Your task will be to release bombs in a timely manner to hit moving targets below. You will be given 15 projectiles for this. After some successes, the speed of your plane will increase.


Avenger  Arcade

This is a top-down scrolling game where you control a fighter and try to shoot down enemy planes. Enemies appear from the top along with a scrolling layer of clouds. You have a boost button for a short-term increase in speed.

Depending on the points earned, you get additional time and the final rank of the pilot: stormer, pilot apprentice, ace, avenger.
