Goal of Game: Stay alive at the bottom of the screen while shooting a centipede that is descending from the top. Spiders, fleas and scorpions also appear to make life difficult.
History: An extremely fast-moving game (and loud—those laser shots don’t mess around), it’s memorable for the trackball control, which allowed for more precise movement as well as the ability to spin the entire ball in anger when you died.
Sequels: 1982’s Millipede
