I remember playing this game a lot on the Apple II back in the day. Later I played it on a Microbee (although I think it was called something else to avoid copyright).

I know Irem made several arcade versions and I've tried some of those a little on mame.

 

Anyone else played this classic game? What computer did you play it on? What's your favorite port / hardware platform?

was addicted to this game on the Apple II back in high school. Also played heaps of it on the C64 which was my fave version.

Yeah. I only ever had a Vic20 so I was always envious of the kids with a C64. I wonder if it would be easy to run up on a C64 mini?

Yep, loved this game. Played it on the BBC model B.

 

 

I don't think I ever saw the BBC port, although I did see some cool games on the BBC. There was a time when I thought a BBC or Acorn would've been a great computer to get but ended up with a Microbee instead.

I never had a VIC20 though friends did. My first computer was a TI99/4A - it was a great little computer, had a cartidge slot and a tape drive, and there was some awesome games including an incredibly addictive D+D game called Tunnels of Doom, and good quality shooters like Parsec, Buck Rogers. was hugely envious of my mate's C64 and I remember buying a used C64 and 1541 with money from doing indoor cricket umpiring after school hours :D

I found out there's a new version for the Nintendo Switch (and also Steam I believe) which not only looks nice, but also has "Classic Mode" so you can play the original game as well.

I think I found what I'll be up to this rainy weekend.

The Vic20's on my want list. Just never see them for a sane price.
