maze

various types
of

Defender
is
a faithful translation
of
the
Williams arcade game
of
the same name. This
game
uses
some
of
the most sophisticated
graphics
available on Atari. For one
or
two
players.
Non-violent
Games
Preppie
is
loosely based upon the arcade clas-
sic
Frogger. Preppie features a delightful musical
track and some humorous twists,
right
down
to
the protagonist's Izod shirt. Well done cartoon-
like graphics.
M.U.L.E.
You
and
your
fellow
players are col-
onists in another
world
in economic competi-
tion
with
each
other
.
This
game
is
best played on
an
Atari 400
or
800
because these are
the
only
Atari systems
with
four
joystick
ports. M.U.
L.E.
is
a great game for a
group
of
people
who
don't
want
to
be friendly after
it
's all over. Very
good
sound, clever graphics, and terrific
play
Adventure
Games
Adventure
games are role-playing exercises in
which
you
must perform a complicated series
of
related tasks
to
achieve a specific goal (accumu-
lating treasure, escaping
with
your
life, etc.). If
you
enjoy crossword puzzles, fantasy,
or
brain
teasers in
general,
you're
a
good
candidate for
adventu
ri
ng.
