Atari Lynx games

The Atari Lynx of 1989 was the first handheld with a backlit color screen and could even be flipped for left-handed play. Games like California Games, Chip's Challenge and Blue Lightning showed off its hardware scaling.

The Lynx library is small, so it is easy to find its best games, and it remains a cult favorite among handheld collectors.

Matrix Picks tracks 77 Lynx games, 36 of which support two or more players.
