GAME DESCRIPTION
(Magazine Advertisement, 1983) Blockade Runner is a great
visual concept in video games - play by yourself or team with a friend to
bring home to earth four ships loaded with vital supplies. Enemy aliens
have blockaded your route, so you must flash through a mine-filled
asteroid belt to avoid destruction. You steer and shoot from your ship's
nose-cone command post as the universe rushes past your eyes!

GAME DESCRIPTION (Magazine Advertisement,

through myriad mazes of danger-filled tunnels searching for...beep, beep,
beep...three enemy submarines that have invaded the city's sewer system.
But watch out for subterranean dangers, as Sam dodges and shoots snakes,
crocodiles, bats, rats, web-spinning spiders, and more! Enough to make
even the stout-hearted shudder...as Sam searches through wet and dry
tunnels for the ultimate showdown!
