Spiker
斯派克排球
Spiker is a volleyball-themed action game released in 1986 by Bally/Sente for arcades. Players control a beach volleyball team competing in matches against opponents, aiming to score points by spiking the ball over the net. The game supports two-player simultaneous play, allowing teammates to cooperate on the court. Controls involve moving your player and timing jumps to set, block, or spike the ball. Matches are structured around rally-style gameplay where positioning and timing determine success. The visuals use a side-view perspective typical of arcade sports games of the era. Bally/Sente produced a relatively small library of arcade titles, and Spiker represents one of their sportier offerings from their mid-1980s output.
