Halloween
From: Wizard Video Games
Year: 1983
Format: Atari 2600
Micheal Myers moves in for the kill
Comments:
You play Laurie Strode attempting to get as many children away from Michael and to safety as you can. You do this by walking next to them and continually pressing the fire button. This will make them slowly move in your direction. But Michael Myers will appear (and the Halloween theme will start). If he reaches you you will die. If he touches the child it will die. You can kill Michael, temporarily of course, by finding a knitting needle and sticking it in him. Made by Wizard who were also responsible for the Texas Chainsaw Massacre game. The music is good for the system and the game itself is quite fun. Apparently when Wizard games were going into liquidation they wanted to get as many of these games out as fast, and cheaply as possible. So rather than stick a label on the cartridge they just wrote 'Halloween' on it in black marker!
