Game Story:

Player drives a moon buggy jumping over craters, rocks and land mines, shooting simultaneously at rocks in front and aliens above while dodging their missiles. Features very catchy background music and cute bouncing tires when the buggy is destroyed. Foreground and background terrain scroll at different rates giving the illusion of depth.

Still get screwed over by the boulders on the champion course from point E.

I will work this out, there is a trick to it.

Bigredbird, that is a cool overlay!

 

I agree, it looks great. Also in his screenshot, the buggy has mysteriously vanished? It's just the moonscape, and an eerie silence.

It does take some game time to work out how to get through each course. Speed, when to jump and shoot can be worked out. I like the game music in this one.

First time I play Moon Patrol from Arcade.

 

The game requires a lot of attention. The game is fun.

 

12,900.

 

Do you think arcade is more difficult than the console version?

I believe this makes Moon Patrol the most nominated MGL game ever with 6 appearances, maybe 000 can confirm

 

I am amazed that you worked this out. You are right! (Did you go back over all the games played in MGL history?)

 

On 29-Nov-2019, Moon Patrol became the most played game in MGL recorded history, by occurrence, with 6 times played.

 

The games remaining on 5 played each are:

 

Bomb Jack

Frogger

Galaga

Lady Bug

Mr Do!

Wonder Boy

 

Maybe @bigredbird or @RichyS can confirm.

 

All of the above are excellent games. Great pick up Darren.
