Joust

ABOUT THE ORIGINAL GAME

Step into the wings of legend with Joust, the classic arcade sensation that puts you in control of a lance-wielding knight astride a flying ostrich (or a stork for Player 2). Master the art of flapping to gain aerial advantage: strike your vulture-riding foes from above, shatter their steeds, and send their eggs tumbling onto perilous platforms below. Race to smash those eggs before they hatch into the fiery Bounder (red knight), the cunning Hunter (white knight), or the relentless Shadow Lord (blue knight)—each more challenging than the last. With intuitive controls and adrenaline-pumping jousts, every wave promises fresh thrills and nonstop action.

But the battle doesn’t end with rival knights. Navigate crumbling ledges, dodge lava trolls bent on dragging you into molten doom, and face off against the enigmatic “unbeatable” pterodactyl for the ultimate test of aerial prowess. Celebrated as one of arcade gaming’s first true two-player simultaneous experiences, Joust delivers old-school excitement and fierce competition perfect for game nights, retro collections, or anyone craving a high-flying challenge. Grab your lance, ready your winged steed, and relive the timeless thrill of Joust today!
