Atari Centipede

Atari Centipede is a classic fixed-shooter arcade game that challenges players to fend off a relentless assault of creatures including centipedes, spiders, scorpions, and fleas using your trusty bugblaster! Your goal is to survive as long as possible in this fast-paced, thrilling game. The bugblaster fires small darts to target the segmented centipede, which can be composed of 10 to 12 body parts, including its head. When you hit a segment, it transforms into a mushroom-like obstacle, adding to the game’s strategic complexity. Each segment continues to move independently downward, making the gameplay increasingly challenging. To eliminate the entire centipede, you must aim for its head — only then will it be destroyed. Controls are intuitive: use your keyboard or mouse to maneuver your bugblaster and aim your shots at the invading creatures. Stay alert, aim carefully, and sharpen your reflexes to top your high score in this exciting arcade classic!
