Review: Very comprehensive book! - There are very few Atari 8-bit books out there sadly, but this is the best one I've read. Tons of reviews including classics like Dropzone, Star Raiders, Centipede, Missile Command, Pac-Man etc. and loads of really obscure stuff too plus really interesting interviews with game devs and a history piece on the computer that taught me a lot. Can't recommend this book enough and can't wait for volume 2 to arrive!
Review: Missing Dropzone - I took one look at the contents page and could not find Dropzone. Not much of a compendium.

I took one look at the contents page and could not find Dropzone. Not much of a compendium.

### ⭐⭐ Review
*by F***N on 27 February 2026*

This series of compendium books on retro gaming do not provide anything new or superior to what is available for free on any number of web pages or YouTube channels dedicated to the subject. The typography of the books is also very poor, with multiple obvious mistakes that make the books feel amateurish. Look elsewhere for better content on the subject.
