Description
Joust is a jousting game in which two players must joust it out on horses. Players can control the location of both their lance and their shield. They must try to block the other player's lance with their shield by placing it high, middle or low and in addition try to hit the other player with their lance by placing it in one of those same locations. A player cannot place his or her lance and shield in the same location.
In the game, the horses move towards each other automatically. The players can move their equipment at any time, making last second adjustments.
