The Dreadnaught Factor (Atari 5200) – Epic Space Battles Against Giant Warships!

The Dreadnaught Factor for the Atari 5200 is a thrilling scrolling shooter developed by Tom Loughry and published by Activision in 1983. Originally released for the Intellivision and later ported to the Atari 8-bit and 5200 systems, this game puts players in command of a lone starfighter on a desperate mission to stop massive, heavily armed dreadnaughts before they reach the Galactic Unstable Energy Field and annihilate your planet.

Armed with lasers and bombs, players must strategically target the dreadnaught’s weak points — destroying missile silos, bridges, and engines to weaken its firepower and slow its advance. Each colossal warship must be bombed along its energy vents until it overheats and explodes in spectacular fashion. With five types of dreadnaughts, each with unique designs and increasing difficulty, every battle tests both skill and precision.

Featuring multiple difficulty levels from “Basic” to “Impossible,” The Dreadnaught Factor offers intense replay value and satisfying tactical gameplay. Critics praised its innovative design and addictive space combat, calling it one of Activision’s most memorable sci-fi shooters of the early 1980s.
