CANYON (;)0Mm31A™ PREMIERES
Presented for the first time at AMOA,
Canyon Bomber TM is a game with
magnetic appeal. This one or two player
video game creates the kind of player
determination to achieve higher and
higher scores. This means high replay and
high collections.
Bombs are dropped from blimps and
planes traveling at varying speeds over a
canyon filled with targets. The objective
is simple: Players try to hit all the targets
in the canyon without missing to obtain
the highest score.
Skill and timing are required as players
decide when to drop the bombs in order
to maximize the number of targets hit.
Game time is determined by the number
of misses allowed, as set by the operator
at 3, 4, 5, or 6 per game. One player
against the computer, or two players
against each other, Canyon Bomber is a
competitive challenge.
TWO IN ONE, i GAMI MODlUJlLI™
Atari introduces a new design concept
for games. The 2 Game Module TM is a
modern cabinet which includes two
complete video games on either side of
the unit. With this new concept two
games will require the same space as one
standard game unit, thus doubling the
potential income from the area used .
Because of its compact size, only
requiring six square feet for two games,
'
the unit can easily be placed in even more
types of locations with less available
space. The games selected for the 2 Game
Module will be those which have a proven
success record in the marketplace and are
certain to show high earnings in any
location.
