Released by Games by Apollo in 1981, Skeet Shoot is an early target shooting action game for the Atari 2600. Players take aim at clay targets launched across the sky, testing their timing and quick-draw reflexes across several single- and two-player game modes.
How to Play
Your goal is to shoot down as many clay targets as possible before they cross the screen. Use your joystick to position your sight and press the trigger button to fire. The game features multiple variations that adjust target speed, launch angles, and whether targets fly singly or in pairs.

Tips
- Lead your targets slightly: trigger your shot just ahead of the clay’s flight path rather than aiming directly where it is right now.
- Use game select (F11) to toggle between single-target practice and double-target modes to hone your response time.
