Red Sea Crossing was created by an independent programmer in 1983 and was discovered by the seller at a garage sale in 2007.
"It turns out this game was not even known to exist until I found it," the seller wrote in the auction's description. "An AtariAge member used the internet to track down the programmer and I spoke with him and got some more information. He said from what he could remember he advertised it in a local religious magazine but couldn't remember the name. In August of 2011 another AtariAge member found the original ad laying to rest that the game was indeed released in 1983."

Rocky and Bullwinkle must stop the evil Boris and Natasha from robbing a train full of priceless valuables.
