About Sundance
Cinematronics produced this 1979 vector-based puzzle game where players must catch bouncing suns traveling between two grids. As the session progresses, these grids move closer together, increasing the difficulty of intercepting the objects. The vertical display and rhythmic movement create a tight, action-oriented challenge for the player.
Player layout in our catalog: 2P sim.
If you are exploring by feel rather than by title, jump from the tags above into the matching genre rooms, or return to the Arcade hall for the full wall.
Open Play on this page to start Sundance. Keyboard, USB/Bluetooth pads, and the on-screen touch gamepad all work inside the emulator bar. Save states and fullscreen live on that same bar so you can pause mid-session and resume later.
