sega 1000, master system, msx, speccy, mame, atari 800 and c64
A simple, yet addictive shooter, playing the part of a bank security guard,
you must keep an eye on the doors to the building and make sure no robbers
arrive to make withdrawals, while other members of the public make deposits.
Master System
To help in your task, a radar of sorts operates along the top of the screen,
showing visitors coming to each door, should you want to check them out,
just move left or right until those doors are on screen, with 3 doors being
visible at any one time.
Amstrad
Completing a level is achieved by allowing a visitor to make a deposit at
each counter with the radar showing what counters have had a deposit
made (An in-between level game consists of you having to draw against
3 villains after a timer runs down).
Atari 800
With random door openings and you not knowing what character will
appear from behind a door, can make for a tense atmosphere. Make
sure not to shoot the innocents (will cost you a life), but keep your
eyes peeled in case they are robbers in disguise, also keep a look
out for the vertically-challenged character who wears a lot of hats,
as you can shoot these off for bonus points.
MSX
Speccy
The bad guys come in different guises with the first kind waving guns
as they appear, while others try to catch you off guard by having
there guns holstered.
C64
Mame
Big characters and reflex-intensive action leads to great gameplay
from this FPS, although some versions don't quite hack it (the Atari
8bit version) while others have nice little ditties playing along (C64)
as you go postal.
