Condor Attack, published by US Games, pits the player against waves of mechanical condors descending in formation, in a vertical-shooting structure that closely follows the formula popularized by Galaxian and Space Invaders. It's representative of the flood of animal- or nature-themed shooters that sought minimal differentiation within a saturated genre. Like so many third-party titles from the Atari 2600's golden age, it's of interest today mainly to collectors documenting the huge number of variants the genre tried before the industry reorganized after the 1983 crash.
