Night Driver for the Atari 2600 is a first-person driving video game released in 1980. As a pioneering example of the racing genre, players navigate a car along a perpetually scrolling road, striving to avoid the roadside while passing under a series of gates. The challenge arises from the increasing speed and the need for quick reflexes as drivers dodge obstacles illuminated by their headlights against the black backdrop of night. The game offers varied gameplay through multiple difficulty settings, providing endless night-time racing excitement on one of the earliest home console platforms.
