Joust is a classic arcade-style game released for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1987. In the game, the player controls a knight riding on a flying ostrich, and must navigate through a series of levels while battling against enemy knights riding on buzzards. The objective is to defeat all the enemy knights by colliding with them from a higher position, while avoiding being hit from a lower position. As the game progresses, the enemies become more difficult to defeat and additional obstacles are introduced. Joust can be played alone or with a friend in a cooperative two-player mode.
