Official description

An ecological system out of control; the last survivors band together in the valley. Of the predator insects the caterpillar remains as the worst menace because of its amazing ability to reproduce. From your mobile post, your guns are aimed at the moving target: a raging caterpillar splits in two with each half going in opposite directions. Even if, in your persistence, you manage to destroy the creature, another one appears one segment longer than the previous caterpillar. Adopting to its hostile environment, if the caterpillar reaches the valley below without attacking you, he transforms into a killer moth. Your survival instincts are not nearly so advanced as those of your foe.

Snatch up this survival epic. A challenging fast-action, machine language, arcade-style game. You'll need plenty of practice. Rated the best arcade simulation of its type. Requires 16K memory for the cassette version.
