Triple Action

About

Triple Action bundles three arcade-style games into one Intellivision title. Racing Cars pits players against each other on a highway, weaving through traffic while racing to 100 miles. Battle Tanks adds cover-based combat with options for bullet range and bounce mechanics, requiring planning to outmaneuver opponents. Biplanes brings air-to-air dogfighting with scoring opportunities by hitting balloons, balancing attack and flight stability. Each game supports solo or head-to-head play. The variety stands out, offering distinct mechanics in a single release. While the graphics are simple by modern standards, the direct controls and clear objectives keep the action brisk. Released late in the 1981 cycle, it capitalized on Intellivision's family-friendly appeal. Classic gaming archives note its niche reputation among collectors, who appreciate the triple-game formula as an early experiment in value-driven design.
