Indian Battle

A clash between cowboys and Native Americans unfolds in this dual-player shooter from Taito, released in 1980. Players control a cowboy character navigating a desert landscape, using a two-way joystick to move and a single button for action. The game presents a third-person perspective as you engage in combat against opposing forces—a scenario of Western frontier conflict. Indian Battle is designed for simultaneous play with another person, allowing for cooperative or competitive engagement within the same game session. The technical specifications include an Intel 8080 processor and SN76477 sound chip to deliver both gameplay and audio. An upright cabinet model was initially released, alongside a cocktail version. The October 1980 release delivered a straightforward shooter experience centered on this historical confrontation in the American West.
