Missile Command | Atari;Ariolasoft (Atari) | 1980 | [126]*** [48]***Published by Atari, Ariola, Videospielkassette, and Video Gems The VCS version of the game uses a story somewhat different from the arcade version. The protagonist is from Zardon and is defending his/her planet from Krytol. It would seem to be a softening of the original story line in favor of a the commonly used sci-fi allegory type story. Ironically, Krytol will suffer no nuclear fallout from their attack and thus the propaganda against Nuclear war (integral to the arcade version) is all but gone as well. Use your planet's Missile Defense System to defend 6 major cities of Zardon from missiles launched by Krytol. There is a hacked version that works with an Atari ST Mouse (or an Amiga Mouse). There are two known variants, one has an author initials easter egg and the other does not. [Zerothis] | labelimageminimize |
