Up to two players control light cycles that leave a solid light trail in their wake. The object of the game is to trap the other player by surrounding them with a light trail that they can't avoid crashing into – or forcing them to run into their own trail. Coming into contact with a light trail, either yours or the other player's, collapses your own trail and ends your turn. The player still standing at the end of the round wins.Grapple

You must stop the galactic jailbreak. The player controls a small character which can move up and down, while firing horizontally to the right. The screen is divided into 5 rows, and the player can fire high, medium, or low in each row. At the beginning of each level, 5 alien creatures attempt to escape to the left. Each monster must be shot in a specific location, and when they hit they are pushed back to the right. When a monster is pushed off the right of the screen, they are eliminated, but the empty rows can then produce small blue creatures which endanger the player. These creatures are destroyed in one hit. The player loses a life if any monster reaches the left side of the screen. Victory for each level is achieved by clearing the screen. Each level has monsters which take progressively more hits to push back, increasing the difficulty. The player starts with 3 lives, and gains an extra at 30,000 points.Spider Raid
