Official description

THE COIN-OP GAME OF THE YEAR IS NOW THE MOST ACTION-PACKED GAME OF ALL TIME!

Congratulations! You're the next lucky contestant on the game show with the ultimate in prizes... YOUR LIFE! Sorry, no mindless blondes spinning wheels here. Just deadly action, flying shrapnel, and total carnage -- all in front of a live studio audience! Instead of picking vowels, you pick 6 futuristic weapons like triple photon lasers and lethal plasma grenades. And the 2 controller action gives you 360 degree arcade firepower.

Sure, you can win toasters and microwaves... after you defeat hordes of cyborg mutants, power orbs and the 30-ton Mutoid Man! Any wonder this show's #1 in the ratings?

Comment

In 1999 you take part in the most violent game, Smash TV. You compete for cash and prizes and are sent into an arena, fully armed. You are attacked from several sides, each room more difficult than the other. A great conversion of this very playable arcade hit. I only miss a two player mode.
