Wizard of Wor is one of the all-time great Atari 2600 games!
Wizard of Wor is a GREAT, challenging Atari game! One of the strong points of the game, is the two-player mode, where two players co-operate, on-screen, simultaneously - a rarity on the 2600. Due to the limitations of the 2600, the enemies flicker a bit, which may be a detraction to some - I consider it an endearing quality - such as vinyl records crackling and popping during song play. Wizard of Wor is definitely on my top 10 list - right up there with Space Invaders, Frogger, Keystone Capers and Berzerk! (Of course, Pitfall if number one!)

Don’t waste your money
Joystick looks good, operates great, feels like quality - up until the handle breaks off like butter!! I wasn’t operating the stick in an abusive manner - I’ve used Atari made joystick’s since the early 80’s. I never broke the stick off an original!
Upon examination, the stick shaft diameter, where it enters the base, is about half of the size of the upper portion . No wonder it broke - CHEAP!!! Too bad, I was starting to really like this stick!
One final interesting tidbet. These joystick’s feel heavy. Most will equate this weightiness to quality. Be advised…weights are inserted into the base, to make it feel heavy! I would’ve preferred a stronger handle over the illusion of quality!
