Red Sea Crossing on the Atari 2600 - The Holy Grail of Atari Games! - Pointless History - Episode 10

On this holiday episode of Pointless History, we talk about one of the rarest, if not, the rarest Atari 2600 game of all time! Red Sea Crossing! A Bible Video Game based off the Crossing of the Red Sea Story (it’s supposed to be called the “Reed Sea”, poor translation from Greek to English, ANYWAY!). The gameplay is on par with any mediocre Atari game of its time, but the aftermath and rarity of this game make it the Holy Grail of Atari 2600 Games, as well as an incredible story to tell around the yule log! Happy Holidays & Happy New Years!
