My Grandfather had the original Intellivision system when I was a kid. At the time, it was considered a sophisticated gaming system (believe it or not), and I had loads of fun playing it. I was really close to my Grandfather, and I loved playing those games with him. Astrosmash was one of my favorites, and having this game again reminds me of a really great time of my life. Now I can play this game and others with my son (who laughs at the simplicity of 1978 technology compared with the Wii and PS3) and share a warm memory of mine with him.
I had an Intellivsion as a kid in the early 80s. This particular game I found very exciting. The falling astroids and misslies fell at an increasing rate of speed, changing the color and the music sped up, too. I guess I could liken it to Atari's Space Invaders - only much better. The cover art is a tad misleading and having said that please overlook it. For a more accurate picture just google astrosmash and select images. There are plenty that show exactly how the game looks. So for the Intellivison enthusiast or just a vintage gamer check this out. I doubt you'll be disappointed.
This is a good old school game. They don't make them like this any more. You just don't expect good graphics with a 35 year old game. That is not a good question for this game.

Astrosmash is one of the best games you can play on the Intellivision. The game starts slow and it is easy at first. As you progress through the game it gets faster and their are more astoroids, missiles, and even alien spaceships that shoot at you. I love this game and if you have an Intellivision this game is a must have!
I had the Intellivision when i was a kid in the late 70s till the 80s. Astrosmash was my favorite game. I remember they had the Astrosmash contest on who could get the highest score and you had to take a pic on your score and send it to Intellivision to see if you won a prize.
