SHAMUS, ATARI 5200
Navigate the eponymous robotic detective through 128 room mazes to reach "The Shadow's Lair," humming to the funeral march of a Marionette, the well-known theme song from Alfred Hitchcock Presents. Opposing the player are a number of robotic adversaries, including spiral drones, robo droids and snap jumpers. Shamus is armed with 'Ion Shivs' and is able to hurl up to two at a time at his enemies. Touching an electrified wall results in instantaneous death similar to Berzerk or Frenzy. Converted from the Atari XL.
