Old coin op game.

I am trying to remember the name of a game that I saw in a arcade in York Beach Maine I saw a few years ago. Its a flying game where the object of the game is to drop bomb on ships until they sink. You can also shoot down other planes to have them crash into the ships. I want to say it was an early 80's game. I think it was called "Twin Tigers" or something. Its been driving me nuts. The arcade controls were 2 flight yokes from what was supposed to look like it was from a old bomber. Thanks.

Welcome to Retro Uprisng! Are the main enemies on ships or is it a straight up shooter that has ships in it too? Do the bombs only hit the ships?

The main object is to sink the ships by dropping a ton of bombs on them or crashing enough airplanes into them. When the ships start taking damage water geysers shoot out of them to signify damage another part of the ship.

Hey mate

Try "Two Tigers". Just taking a stab from reading the description.

That definitely sounds like Two Tigers. Two Tigers - Arcade/Coin-Op. Click the link and see if that's right.

DEFINITELY Twin Tigers. My local skating rink had a cabinet for awhile, and I loved playing the 2-player mode.
