Absolutely brilliant set Keltron. It was great fun. Challenging and varied but not a huge grind or insanely difficult. One of my favourite Atari 2600 games. So pleased to have mastered it. Thanks so much!

In my eyes this is a horror game about the futility of "defence" during a nuclear conflict.

Dave Theurer had nightmares about nuclear war while developing the arcade version of the game.
