STRATEGY X on ATARI 2600—Did Anyone PLAY-TEST This?

Strategy X began as a 1981 Konami arcade game before reaching the Atari 2600 in 1983—one of just three games Konami published for the system. It should have been something special. Instead, it feels unfinished, unfair, and barely play-tested. This week on Friday Plays, I revisit a game I once skipped and ask: Am I missing something, or is it really this bad?
