Description

Handball is one of six add-on games released for the Odyssey console in 1972. It comes with game card #8, which makes the center line from Table Tennis deflect the ball.

The center line is positioned at the left of the screen, while both players are placed to the right. In a gameplay much more like Squash than Handball, players now alternate in avoiding to miss the ball, and hitting it back towards the wall.
