Play Star Dust Online

Game Overview

Star Dust (MS-DOS) is one of those games you fire up thinking, "Eh, just a quick round," and suddenly it's 2 AM. It takes the old brick-breaker formula—you know, paddle and ball—but throws it into deep space where you're smashing asteroids instead of blocks. The controls are dead simple, but don’t let that fool you—those later levels get brutal.

The whole thing oozes early-'90s charm, from the chunky pixel explosions to the synth soundtrack that sounds like it’s straight out of a sci-fi B-movie. I kept coming back just to hear that satisfying ping when you nail a tricky shot. If you ever wasted afternoons on Arkanoid or Breakout, this feels like their cooler, neon-drenched cousin. Just don’t blame me when you’re still playing at sunrise.

Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
