DESCRIPTION

Conceived by Mattel Electronics as a compendium of games too small to warrant their own cartridge, Triple Action contains three simplistic games reminiscent of Atari efforts of the day. Battle Tanks is a Combat-like tank shooter while Car-Racing is a split-screen, top-down auto race. Biplanes, which is by far the most enjoyable game in the collection, is similar to the airborne games in Combat, but with one major exception: gravity affects the planes. In terms of audio/visual effects, the games are merely functional. Triple Action proves that more is not necessarily better. ~ John Jackson Miller, All Game Guide
