Overview
Skibbereen for the Commodore VIC-20
Gameplay
The game resembles a mixture of Pong and Breakout; on each side of the screen there
is a wall consisting of 6 rows of bricks. Each player controls a paddle which moves up and down; the goal
is to deflect a bouncing ball into the opponents wall while blocking it from destroying the players own
wall. Behind the wall is a pot of gold; if the ball breaks through a player's opponents wall and hits the
pot of gold, that player wins the game. From time to time a snake will also appear. It will be located in front
of a paddle on either side of the screen; if the ball comes into contact with the snake, it will be eaten
and disappear providing a second obstacle that can block the ball from hitting the wall. Skibbereen
can be played by two players only, there is no option for a computer opponent.
