Developed by WMS Industries, Smash TV arrived on the Commodore 64 as an action game.

WMS Industries also made Defender and Narc for the C64.

Smash TV supports up to 2 players, including cooperative play, which makes it a strong pick for playing with a friend.

Pick it if…

  • you want to fight, blast and test your reflexes
  • you have time for a quick session (under an hour, or endless arcade fun)
  • you want a game to beat together with a friend

Maybe skip it if…

  • you prefer slow, thoughtful games over reflex tests

What playing Smash TV is like

Action games test reflexes and nerve. Expect fast enemies, tight controls and stages you clear by reacting quickly and learning enemy patterns.

Tip for newcomers: Retro action games are often short but tough. Treat early deaths as practice runs; every attempt teaches you where the next threat comes from.
