Clowning Around

I'll be Honest here. I loved the OG Circus Atari because of how much killing the clowns made me laugh. The game is challenging and FUN, but that macabre feature brought me in , Over and Over Again. So I'm Happy to report, that SUPER Circus Atari is MORE. So Much more of what I love about the OG game. It looks amazing too. Nailed It!

Grab yourself a set of paddles to play this gem with spruced up graphics and gameplay is exciting with the addition of power ups!

Super Circus Review (Atari 7800)

Super Circus is a straightforward but enjoyable Atari 7800 arcade conversion that focuses on timing and precision rather than speed alone. You control a seesaw to bounce performers into the air and land them safely on moving platforms above. The mechanics are simple, but the increasing complexity of the stages adds just enough pressure to keep things interesting. Early rounds ease you in, while later levels demand tighter control and better anticipation. It’s not flashy, but it’s well executed, and it captures that classic arcade feel where improvement comes from repetition. Super Circus is a solid example of Atari taking a basic premise and turning it into a focused, replayable experience.

A Paddles Essential

Using a joystick, Super Circus Atari is brutally difficult. But with the recommended paddles, it is a super fun although challenging game. Game play is addictive. The graphics are colorful and entertaining. The circus music is just right and the sound effects are engaging. I bought this game to take advantage of my new paddles and I haven't been disappointed. Note: you will need to update your Plus system to the latest firmware here on Atari to use the paddles.

Super Circus Atari is Great!

This is a great refresh of an Atari classic. The graphics are colorful and has a real circus vibe. It has the "Just one more game feel". Highly recommend.

Great, albeit HARD game!

What another fantastic game by Bob Decrescendo! The new graphics and sound are perfect for this title. It plays great with both the Joystick and Paddles. It's a little on the hard side, but I can definitely see my game improving as I play it more.

Needs Firmware for paddles

This is being played on a 7800+, and there is no paddle support but supposedly another firmware update that I haven't found yet works so I will still try that. The game itself is excellent, and I was skeptical of the 2 player simultaneous mode, but me and my daughter love its chaos and insanity (even with non-paddle play) so this game is a winner with a hitch that should be soon smoothed out!

Robert DeCrescenzo does it again! Its always good to see his work make its way into an "Atari" authorized box and cart. Very fun and an amazing 80's feel. Please make more of these Robert DeCrescenzo games available!

The Day the Clown Cried

In the 80's, I cut my gaming teeth on Circus Atari. When Atari officially released Bob D's Super version, I was thrilled. The option to have the CX40 or CX78 instead of Paddles is a nice touch. It's customizable gameplay with a power up twist. I'm not great at it, but I'm very much addicted to playing. Thanks Bob, thanks Atari!

Good game

Good game, simple and straight forward mechanics. Though personally I would prefer to play it with paddle controllers rather than a joystick or gamepad. Colorful graphics, and butter smooth frame rates. Though I never get far due to only having my 7800+ gamepad to play with.

The game is fine

The game is fine. It’s hard for me to play with the controller, so I use the paddles I got from Atari (new ones), but they’re kind of stiff and jittery. It’s hard to play with those as well. I’ll try to use my original paddles
