Game Description
The laws of inertia rule space. And Asteroids.

Shoot asteroids that gently float around your ship on a wrap-around screen, breaking them into smaller pieces, until nothing is left. Such is the governing principle of Asteroids.

You can move your ship around to, at the risk of not anticipating a collision with an asteroid debris!

In later versions and copycats of the game, you could warp your ship at the last second to avoid collision (with no guarantee that where you'll be warped to will be safer), smaller asteroid fragments accelerated, and other various improvements to the formula were introduced.

This, however, is the root, raw, original, untouched experience from which it all started.
