Circus Atari (Text Label) for the Atari 2600 is an action arcade-style game, part of the genre of early home console iterations of popular coin-operated titles. Developed and published by Atari, Inc. in 1980, it's a variation of the classic game Breakout. Players control a seesaw to catch and bounce clowns up into the air to pop rows of balloons aligned at the top of the screen. Timing is critical as players must ensure that the descending clowns land back on the seesaw to continue their ascent. Its simple yet addictive gameplay offered endless hours of fun for all ages.
