RALLY  SPEEDWAY  ''^''"' 

by  John  Anderson 

Watch  out,  Mario  Andretti!  Here  comes  RALLY 
SPEEDWAY  —  a  full-color  car  racing  simulation  for  all 
ATARI  400,  800  and  1200  computers!  After  conquering  sea 
and  sky,  the  mad  mind  behind  the  hit  APPLE  programs 
SEA  DRAGON  and  REAR  GUARD  has  dropped  the  flag  for 
ground-level  thrills  Monte  Carlo  style! 

A  colorful,  scrolling  roadscape  serves  as  an  exciting 
backdrop  for  fun-injected  action  —  choose  one  of  several 
different  courses  provided  or  "construct"  your  own. 
Players  are  challenged  to  hot  rod  their  joystick-controlled 
cars  down  grueling  straightaways,  around  hairpin  corners 
and  past  an  ever-changing  landscape  that  includes 
houses,  lakes,  orchards  and  more.  Work  on  improving  your 
lap  time  with  a  solo  game,  or  invite  a  friend  along  for  a  one- 
on-one  duel  to  the  finish  line  —  there's  plenty  of  excite- 
ment to  go  around! 

The  action  has  never  been  faster,  the  competition 
never  keener  than  in  this  sensational  simulation.  For  flat- 
out  fun,  there's  only  one  racing  game  that  really  delivers  — 
RALLY  SPEEDWAY!  (Relax,  Mom  —  no  helmet  required!)

ATARI  and  COMMODORE  64  Versions  by  Neil  Larimer  COM.   64 

TRS-80  Version  by  John  E.  Cominio 

Far  above  the  clean,  sweeping  lines  of  a  futuristic  megalopolis,  the 
first  wave  of  craft  from  another  world  falls  from  the  sides.  Ivlethodically,  they 
work  the  skyline,  releasing  the  most  awesome  of  weaponry:  the  terrifying 
matter  ravagers!  Instantly,  the  energy  envelope  surrounding  the  city  is 
punctured  and  several  skyrisers  sustain  serious  damage.  The  first  step  in  the 
havoc  complete,  the  pulsating  vessels  disappear  into  hyperspace  as  quickly 
as  they  had  come.  But  in  the  span  of  a  few  brief  seconds,  more  appear  to 
recreate  anew  the  terrible  destruction.  .  .  . 

This  is  STRATOS  —  a  kaleidoscopic  explosion  of  awesome  graphics 
and  other-worldly  sounds  that's  light-years  beyond  any  arcade-type  game 
you've  ever  seen  on  your  micro!  This  joystick-compatible  funfest  puts  you  in 
TOTAL  control  of  the  devastating  Armageddon  Wave  —  the  only  weapon 
capable  of  decimating  the  attacking  alien  ships.  STRATOS  comes  loaded  with 
the  professional  features  you've  come  to  expect,  including  one  or  two  player 
option,  high  score  save,  and  mind-melting  sounds. 

Designed  for  the  home  arcader  who  takes  his  action  white-hot,  you  can 
be  certain  the  thrills  don't  let  up  with  this  scorcher!  STRATOS  —  look  to  the 
skies  and  prepare  for  the  battle  that  will  shred  the  universe!!!

Commodore  64  Version  by  Dave  Simmons 

Secure  all  hatches!  Prepare  to  dive!  Sea  Dragon  is  a  slick,  arcade-ish  simulation  that 
puts  you  in  command  of  a  nuclear  sub  that's  armed  to  the  hilt  with  deadly  missiles  and 
torpedoes.  You  guide  your  submarine  past  underwater  mountains  and  through  labyrinthine 
passages  while  avoiding  webs  of  explosive  mines  that  rise  from  the  seabottom.  Additional 
dangers  include  mine-dropping  ships,  enemy  attack  stations,  falling  stalactites,  and  deadly 
lasers  —  any  of  which  could  keep  you  from  your  ultimate  goal:  destruction  of  the  incredibly 
powerful  nuclear  reactor  at  the  end  of  the  undersea  course!  Maneuver  around  these 
dangerous  obstacles  and  surface  to  refuel  your  ever-diminishing  air  supply  —  if  you  can! 

You  want  variety?  You  got  it!  Sea  Dragon  boasts  a  scrolling  seabottom  that  extends  the 
equivalent  of  over  two  dozen  screens  laid  end-to-end.  And  two-player  option,  sounds  and  high 
score  save  feature  go  hand  in  hand  with  the  kind  of  graphics  you've  come  to  expect  from 
Adventure  International. 

Not  for  the  taint-hearted.  Sea  Dragon  is  your  best  bet  for  underwater  thrills  and  chills. 
Action-plus  from  Adventure  International!

BY  CHAMELEON  SOFTWARE 

Atari  version  by  David  Simmons 

MACES  &  MAGIC  are  fantasy  adventures  involving  you  and  your  computer.  Armed  only  with  your  wits,  a  microcomputer,  and 
ttie  software  provided,  you  can  become  the  hero  or  the  meal  your  destiny  dictates.  You  create  a  character,  equip  him  (or  her)  with 
suitable  weapons  and  armor,  and  enter  the  dungeon  in  search  of  fame  and  fortune.  Neither  is  particularly  easy  to  obtain. 

If  you  are  successful  in  avoiding  or  conquering  the  various  monsters,  traps,  enchantments  and  illusions  set  by  our  nefarious 
dungeonmasters,  you  may  escape  with  riches  and  glory.  Your  name  and  deeds  will  be  recorded  for  posterity  in  the  records  of  the 
dungeon.  More  importantly,  you'll  be  alive.  You  may  then  use  the  same  character  in  his  more  experienced  and  wealthy  form  when 
you  enter  dungeons  on  later  occasions. 

In  each  dungeon  there  are  random  events  which  occur,  but  in  the  vast  majority  of  cases  the  skill  of  the  player  in  making  cor- 
rect choices  determines  the  outcome  of  the  game.  The  majority  of  instructions  are  furnished  within  the  program  in  the  form  of  ap- 
propriate prompts. 

There  are  many  ways  to  meet  an  untimely  demise  in  the  dungeon.  Monsters  and  such  are  just  one  of  the  lines  of  defense  bet- 
ween you  and  the  treasures  stored  there.  Various  traps  await  the  unwary  (and  the  wary  too).  Some  are  lethal,  while  others  are 
merely  unpleasant  or  inconvenient.  It  pays  to  be  suspicious.  Beware  of  ores  bearing  gifts. 

The  object  of  the  whole  exercise  is  not  just  to  fight  the  monsters  and  collect  treasure.  You  have  to  get  out  alive  to  enjoy  it. 
Take  heart,  though.  There's  at  least  one  exit  to  be  found  in  every  dungeon,  and  the  possibility  of  escaping  unscathed  does  exist. 
We  state  that  fact  here  because  players  often  believe  this  not  to  be  true.  We  really  aren't  out  to  get  you.  Not  really.  . 

Once  you  successfully  exit  from  the  dungeon,  you  will  have  an  opportunity  to  save  your  character  for  further  adventures  in 
this  and  other  dungeons.  Your  treasures  will  be  converted  to  their  gold  equivalent  and  your  weapons  and  armor  stored  in  bat 
guano.  When  you  start  another  adventure,  you  may  call  up  your  experienced  character  for  another  trip.  The  only  limitation  is  that 
once  a  character  is  killed,  he  may  reincarnated  three  times;  after  that,  he  is  gone  forever.  No  second  chances,  no  tears,  no  breast 
beating.  Gone.  Kaput.  Finished.  You  will  have  the  distinction  of  adding  to  the  dungeon  statistics,  however.  A  sort  of  secondhand 
immortality  in  recognition  of  a  nice  try.  No  glory  or  cash  though.

BUG  OFF! 


ATARI 


Atari  Version 


by  Sparky  Starks 

Looking  for  somethtng  really  different?  BUG  OFF!  Do  you  demand  great,  quality 
graphics?  BUG  OFF!  Are  you  ready  tor  more  fun  than  you  can  shake  a  walking  stick  at? 
BUG  OFF!  Heavens  no.  were  not  getting  personal  —  we're  just  announcing  the  newest 
and  perhaps  wackiest  arcade-style  game  to  hit  the  ATARI  yet  —  BUG  OFF! 

This  is  one  game  that  will  bug  the  heck  out  of  you  —  but  enjoyably  so!  Your  garden 
has  fallen  into  a  Florida  sinkhole  where  weird  forces  have  mutated  a  bevy  of  bizarre 
bugs  into  a  contingent  of  killers!  In  this  case,  relief  is  spelled  D-D-T,  and  you'll  need 
oodles  of  it  to  dispatch  these  pesky  pests! 

BUG  OFF  literally  buzzes  with  excitement  with  pincer-sharp  graphics  and  more 
colors  than  an  exploding  paint  factory!  The  object  of  the  game  is  to  control  the  seven 
different  types  of  bugs  that  are  threatening  to  run  helter-skelter  over  everything.  And 
what  an  assortment  there  is!  Butterflies  and  moths  spin  deadly  cocoons;  caterpillers 
drop  teeny-weeny  lady  bugs  by  the  score,  and  spiders  and  wasps  add  a  sinister  touch  to 
the  rabble  roster.  IF  you're  lucky,  the  Army  will  airlift  in  more  DDT  in  time;  if  not  —  well, 
we  wont  talk  about  that! 

So,  grab  onto  your  joystick  and  brace  yourself  for  the  battle  that'll  shake  your 
house  to  Its  (hopefully  treated)  foundation!  BUG  OFF!  The  only  bugs  around  no  one 
minds  in  their  computer!

Color  Computer  Version  by  Roger  Schrag 

"Yas.  after  purchasing  diamond  mmes  m  South  Africa,  oil  wells  in  Saudi,  and  rare 
beer  cans  in  Walla  Walla.  Washington.  I  had  begun  to  wonder  as  to  what  other  trendy 
commodities  remained  to  be  added  to  my  swelling  portfolio  Then  a  snip  of  a  ticket  girl 
dared  to  tell  me  (ME'  Hartley  J.  Wormsflather  III')  that  my  flight  was  overbooked.  To 
avoid  future  misunderstandings.  I  bought  the  airline. 

"/  think  I'm  onto  something  profitable  here.  "  Hartley  J.  Wormsfather  III 

Enter  the  intriguing  world  of  high  finance  where  even  the  sturdiest  of  corporate 
empires  can  dissolve  as  quickly  as  they're  built.  AIRLINE  is  a  no-holdsbarred  strategy 
game  for  one  to  four  players.  The  object  is  to  construct  a  sizable  empire  while 
competing  against  human  and/or  computerized  opponents.  Players  purchase  landing 
rights  from  any  one  of  36  major  U.S.  cities,  buy  planes  and  then  station  them  on  routes 
that  will  maximize  their  revenue  from  fares.  And  unlike  many  strategy  games,  the 
outcome  of  AIRLINE  is  solely  determined  by  your  playing  skills.  That's  right,  no  random 
element  is  involved  —  meaning  no  untimely  upsets  or  surprises!

Cash  Register 
Inventory  System 

by  Scott  Adams 


'We've  used  this  system  in  our  retail  store  for  over  a  year  now,  and  it's  great" 

—  Pete  Bender,  Manager  Adventure  International  Computer  Store 


The  computer  age  comes  to  your  retail  business  via  C.R.I. S.  (Cash  Register  Inven- 
tory System)  —  a  complete  software  package  that  will  literally  convert  your  ATARI 
400.  800  or  1200  into  a  total  point-of-sales  terminal.  With  C.R.I.S.,  you  can  perform  vir- 
tually any  of  the  functions  found  on  standard  register  systems  costing  up  to  10  times 
the  price.  But  C.R.I.S.  is  also  a  complete  inventory  control  system,  too!  Information 
on  backorders,  total  items  sold,  items  in  stock,  stock  ordered,  vendor  numbers  —  it's 
all  here  and  at  your  fingertips.  C.R.I.S.  also  prints  complete  inventory  reports,  in- 
cluding purchase  order,  stock  inventory,  end  of  period.  AND  it  will  print  customer 
sales  receipts,  just  like  the  "Big  tvlachines "  do!  Here's  more: 

*  Holds  up  to  1000  separate  inventory  items  (2000  with  C.R.I.S.  Ill) 

*  Supports  up  to  10  salesmen  (up  to  25  with  C.R.I.S.  Ill) 

*  User-defined  commission  rate  based  on  total  sales  and  is  individualized  to  each 
salesman 

*  Accepts  stock  name  of  up  to  20  characters  in  length 

*  Up  to  16  items  can  be  listed  on  each  invoice 

*  End  of  Day.  End  of  Period,  and  Purchase  Order  reports  can  be  generated  at  any 
time 

*  Easy  error  correction  and  recovery 

*  Many  "password-protected"  functions  to  help  prevent  accidental  data  loss 

*  Calculates  totals  on  sales  tickets  and  computes  change 

*  Comes  complete  in  an  attractive  binder  with  user-friendly  documentation 

*  Requires  only  1  disk  drive  (2  required  for  C.R.I.S.  Ill) 


And  now,  included  with  each  and  every  copy  of  C.R.I.S.  I  is  C.R.I.S.  III.  This  latest 
version  features  the  dependability  of  C.R.I.S.  I  with  a  dramatic  increase  in  storage 
capacity.  Since  C.R.I.S.  Ill  requires  an  additional  8K  of  memory  (for  a  total  of  40K)  and 
two  disk  drives,  you  can  purchase  C.R.I.S.  I  for  use  now  on  your  one-drive.  32K  system, 
and  move  up  to  C.R.I.S.  Ill  whenever  you  decide  to  expand  your  system.  It's  actually 
three  programs  for  the  price  of  one! 

Completely  menu-driven.  C.R.I.S.  doesn't  require  a  degree  in  computer  science  to 
use;  its  easy-to-follow  manual  will  lead  the  user  step-by-step  from  initial  power-up  to 
final  report  generation. 

If  you  manage  a  small  business  and  have  ever  considered  "going  computer." 
now  is  the  time  to  move  up  to  the  finest  in  point-of-sales  and  inventory  management 
—  now  is  the  time  to  move  up  to  C.R.I.S.

tional and  can  be  added  later.

by  Wayne  Westmoreland  &  Terry  Gilman 

If  you  think  you've  seen  it  all  game-wise,  then  Adventure 
International  has  a  program  for  you!  ARMORED  PATROL  is  a 
3-D  arcade-style  game  that  is  a  definite  heavyweight  in  the 
action  department!  Your  mission  is  to  patrol  your  sector  and 
destroy  all  enemy  tanks  and  robots  with  your  tank's  high 
energy  plasma  weapon.  Fueling  the  excitement  is  a  realistic 
you-are-there  perspective  that  lets  the  player  view  the  action 
from  the  inside  of  his  powerful  T-36  tank  as  it  prowls  an  alien 
landscape  in  search  of  the  waiting  enemy.  ARMORED 
PATROL  is  packed  with  lots  of  extras,  including  running 
score  tally,  sound,  and  high  score  display.  But  the  most  im- 
pressive feature  of  ARMORED  PATROL  is  the  incredible 
graphics  which  create  the  total  illusion  of  movement  and 
dimension.  ARMORED  PATROL  accomodates  one  or  two 
players  so  you  can  share  the  action  with  a  friend!

THE  SEARCH  FOR 
ELSOLIADO 

by  Stefan  Schramm 

THE  SEARCH  FOR  ELSOLIADO  Is  just  that  —  an  Interstellar 
quest  for  an  uncharted  world.  Since  Elsoliado  cannot  be  found  by 
pure  chance,  information  concerning  its  whereabouts  must  be  pur- 
chased from  deep-space  Starbases  —  information  which  frequently 
sports  an  exorbitant  price  tag. 

During  the  voyage,  a  variety  of  aliens  will  be  encountered.  Add 
to  your  coffers  with  a  little  trading,  but  be  prepared  to  strike  ag- 
gressively should  the  situation  warrant  It.  Survive,  and  you  may  yet 
discover  the  fabled  Elsoliado! 

THE  SEARCH  FOR  ELSOLIADO's  unique  game  design  —  a 
perfect  hybrid  of  strategy  and  arcade  action  —  will  enthral  young 
and  old  alike  for  hours.  And  quick  machine  language  graphics,  "com- 
puter" updates  and  a  polnt-of-view  perspective  will  ably  assist  all 
keyboard  commandos. 

Your   search   for   unique  entertainment   Is   at   an   end.   THE 
SEARCH  FOR  ELSOLIADO  —  something  new  for  1983  from  Adven- 
ture International.

Prepare  yourself  —  a  new  phase  in  graphics  enlerlajnment  is  about  to  unfold.  Witness 
AREX:  A  game  imbued  with  the  precision  of  Arcade  Action  Graphics(tm),  a  game  that 
weathers  the  test  of  repeated  playings  with  flair  and  panache. 

AREX  —  The  challenge  is  simple.  The  player  must  enter  and  neutralize  at  least  90%  of 
the  enemy's  territory  while  avoiding  3  distinct  types  of  alien  ships.  A  successful  invasion 
earns  advancement  to  subsequent  (and.  of  course,  more  difficult)  levels  of  play.  Indeed,  the 
challenge  is  simple;  success,  however,  will  elude  all  but  the  most  astute  player. 

AREX  —  Perhaps  never  has  there  existed  a  game  in  which  survival  is  so  closely  linked  to 
split-second  timing.  The  battle  grid  teems  with  perils,  and  here,  only  the  quick  survive.  AREX 
also  features  phenomenal  graphics  routines,  joystick  compatibility  and  a  host  of  extras,  in- 
cluding high  score  retention,  one-  or  two-player  option  and  multiple  skill  levels,

TRIAD     ^       gL')S.'e4 

by  Ed  Hobbs  CoCO 

Color  Computer  Version  by  Jeff  Francis 

Here's  the  one  youve  been  waiting  for  —  a  new  arcade-style  game  that's  practically  nine 
games  in  one!  But  don't  take  our  word  for  it  —  pre-release  testing  results  were  unanimous: 
TRIAD,  our  testers  said,  is  "incredible." 

The  Imaginative  game  scenario  centers  around  a  master  tic-tac-toe  board.  You  can  score 
an  "X "  by  selecting  and  successfully  battling  one  of  nine  weird  foes.  Three  X's  in  a  row  and 
Bingo!  —  you  automatically  advance  to  the  next  level!  But  the  core  of  TRIAD  is  the  colorful  hi- 
resolution  graphics  and  great  sounds  that  animate  and  energize  the  battle  scenes.  They 
simply  have  to  be  experienced  firsthand! 

TRIAD  excells  in  the  "trills  department,"  too  —  keyboard  or  joystick  option,  game  freeze, 
running  high  score  and  more.  But  that's  not  all,  no  sir!  A  succession  of  teeth-gritting  skill 
levels  is  guaranteed  to  test  the  eye-to-hand  coordination  of  the  most  valiant  of  armchair 
warriors. 

Don't  let  your  computer  fall  into  disuse  —  perk  it  up  with  TRIAD  —  the  latest  class  act 
from  Adventure  International.

The  Adventure  Series:  An  Overview 

By  definition,  an  adventure  is  a  dangerous  or  risky  undertaking;  a  novel,  exciting,  or  otherwise  remarkable  event  or  experience. 
On  your  personal  computer.  Adventure  Is  that  and  more. 

Playing  any  of  the  Adventure  series  consists  of  three  elements:  you.  the  user;  the  games  themselves;  and  the  author,  Scoft 
Adams  of  Orlando.  Florida 

In  beginning  any  Adventure,  you  will  find  yourself  in  a  specific  location:  a  forest,  on  board  a  small  spaceship,  outside  a  tun 
house,  in  the  briefing  room  of  a  nuclear  plant,  in  a  desert,  etc.  The  lop  portion  of  your  video  display  will  tell  you  where  you  are  and 
what  you  can  see;  the  bottom  section  of  the  display  is  devoted  to  inputting  commands  to  your  robot  computer  and  receiving 
messages  that  may  arise  as  the  result  of  your  orders.  You  have  to  get  used  to  looking  at  both  the  top  and  bottom  portions  in  order  to 
find  out  what's  going  on  in  the  game  but  it  doesn't  take  long  for  the  reading  to  become  a  reflex.  In  (act.  you  will  have  to  live  In  those 
imaginary  worlds. 

By  using  two  word  commands  you  move  from  location  to  location  (called  "rooms  "  although  some  rooms  represent  outdoor 
Mios  such  as  a  swamp),  manipulate  objects  that  you  find  in  the  different  rooms  (pick  them  up,  put  them  down,  carry  them.  etc.).  and 
:  erform  actions  as  if  you  were  really  there. 

_  _  The  object  of  a  game  is  to  amass  treasure  for  points  or  accomplish  some  other  poal 

such  as  preventing  the  destruction  of  the  automated  nuclear  plant  in  Mission  Impossible. 
Successfully  completing  a  game,  however,  is  far  easier  to  state  than  achieve.  In  many 
cases  you  will  find  a  treasure  but  be  unable  to  take  it  until  you  are  carrying  the  right  com- 
bination of  objects  you  find  in  the  various  locations. 

If  you're  tired  of  video  games  of  bouncing  balls  or  shooting  at  targets;  if  you're  ready 
for  an  intellectual  challenge  that  transports  you  to  new  worlds  of  experience;  tf  you  want 
to  see  what  a  skilled  programmer  can  do  with  a  micro,  invest  in  one  of  Scott  Adams" 
games.  An  early  Adventure  (Adventureland  or  Pirate  Adventure)  is  a  good  place  to  start 
'lecause  the  more  Adams  creates,  the  tougher  his  puzzles  get

two-word  commands,  some  common  sense  and  a  little  ingenuity.

FIRE  COPTER^ 


Color  Computer  Version 


COLOR 
COMPUTER 

by  Dale  Lear 

Down  there  —  below  and  to  the  right  —  tongues  of  fire  play  across  the  face 
of  a  skyscraper  like  living  things.  Inside  the  copter,  runaway  temperatures  nearly 
rip  the  consciousness  from  your  heat-punished  body,  momentarily  throwing  you 
off  course.  But  panic  taps  a  hidden  reservoir  of  strength,  and  with  an  adroit  push 
on  the  throttle,  your  FIRE  COPTER  continues  to  knife  through  the  swirling  plume 
of  smoke  towards  its  target.  .  .  . 

At  long  last  —  three-dimensional  realism  comes  to  your  micro!  FIRE 
COPTER  serves  up  a  tasty  helping  of  coin-op  realism  as  the  player  is  treated  to  a 
bird's-eye  view  of  flight  over  a  huge  city.  Buildings  dimensionally  leap  into  view 
and  then  vanish  as  the  perspective  changes.  The  object  of  FIRE  COPTER  is  to 
extinguish  as  many  fires  as  possible  (using  your  Firecopler's  built-in  water  jets) 
before  the  entire  city  burns.  Along  the  way,  fire-starting  androids  may  be  en- 
countered which  should  be  dispatched  with  your  lasers  posthaste! 

FIRE   COPTER   is  joystick-controlled   and  accommodates  one  or  two 
players.  Ready  for  three-dimensional  realism?  Then  you're  ready  for  FIRE 
COPTER  —  the  hot  new  game  from  Adventure  International!

LUNAR  LANDER    1?!!^ 

by  Mike  Wall  &  Jack  Moncriel  Joystick  Compatible! 

Atari  Version  by  Jell  Je'ssee 

This  is  Lunar  Lander  —  an  awesome  arcade  simulation  that  challenges 
you  to  defy  the  rigors  of  space  flight!  In  this  version  of  the  popular  game,  your 
micro  will  be  taxed  to  its  graphic  limits!  Written  in  fast  machine  language,  the 
landscape  scrolls  horizontally  by  as  you  guide  your  LEIvl  (Lunar  Excursion 
IVIodule)  across  the  lunar  surface.  As  you  near  your  selected  landing  site,  the 
automatic  camera  left  behind  by  the  previous  mission  "zooms  in  "  for  a  tight 
close-up  of  the  final  descent!  Each  crash  will  cost  you  1000  fuel  units,  but  for  the 
skilled  player,  relief  can  be  found  at  the  ravine's  bottom  with  a  refill  at  the  fuel 
depot! 

The  ATARI  joystick  version  features  color  graphics,  and  snappy  4-voice 
sound  effects.  Your  mission  is  to  make  5  successful  landings  with  your  LEM  — 
if  you've  got  what  it  takes  to  be  a  lunar  pilot,  you'll  plant  the  U.S.  flag  to  the  rous- 
ing tune  of  ""The  Star  Spangled  Banner!"  The  ATARI  version  also  includes  multi- 
ple skill  levels  for  novice  to  the  pro!

opponent  —  any  combination  of  the  three  systems  is  possible  for  two  players!  All 
you  need  is  an  APPLE,  ATARI  or  TRS-80  microcomputer,  a  willing  friend  with  one 
of  the  above  systems,  a  full-duplex  modem  (or,  a  modem  eliminator  cable  if  the 
two  computers  are  in  the  same  room)  and  this  package! 

You  and  your  opponent  are  located  somewhere  within  a  4096-square- 
kilometer  combat  zone.  Each  player  has  access  to  an  equal  supply  of  weaponry. 
The  outcome  of  the  game  will  be  determined  by  two  factors:  the  skills  of  the  par- 
ticipants and  a  little  luck.  As  soon  as  communications  are  established  (via  1 10  to 
9600  baud  modem  or  direct  cable  connection),  the  battle  is  begun!  Decide  which 
weapons  to  carry,  then  load  them  onto  up  to  eight  remote-controlled  tanks  that 
YOU  control.  Your  mission  is  to  find  and  destroy  the  enemy's  base  before  he  can 
do  the  same.  Look  smart  and  remember  —  each  enemy  tank  defeated  in  combat 
increases  your  survival  odds. 

Your  well-stocked  arsenal  includes;  Rockets,  Lasers,  Shells,  Mines,  and 
Decoys.  These  combat-ready  weapons  can  be  transported  and  used  by  your  tanks. 
And  when  the  going  gets  tough,  the  tough  can  get  going  with  the  info-gathering 
Reconnaissance  Aircraft  or  the  awesome  nuclear  ICBiyi! 

The  COIVIlVtBAT  computer  displays  all  relevant  data  including  current 
resource  status,  a  map  of  the  combat  reservation  updated  by  tank,  base  and 
decoy  sensors;  and  handles  all  communication  chores,  freeing  you  to  make  the 
strategic  decisions  and  prosecute  the  tactical  battle  situations  that  arise. 

COIVIfy/IBAT  requires  two  computer  systems  with  RS-232  port  and  a  300  baud 
full  duplex  modem.

SPOOK  HOUSE  AND  TRS80 

TOXIC  DUMPSITE 

by  Roger  Schrag 

This  is  it  —  the  blockbusting  debut  of  the  long-awaited  Graphic  Adventures!  Now  your 
TRS-80  can  hobnob  with  the  best  of  em.  Over  50  full  screens  of  sharp,  quality  graphics 
breathe  a  realism  and  vitality  into  Adventuring,  the  likes  of  which  you've  yet  to  see  on  the 
TRS-80.  Both  Graphic  Adventures  feature  game  save,  extensive  vocabulary,  real-time  action 
(Yes  —  we  said  realtime!)  and  accept  FULL  sentences!  Exclusive  area  showings  brought  to 
you  by  Adventure  International.  Now  playing  at  a  TRS-80  near  you! 

SPOOK  HOUSE  —  Horrors!  A  deranged  madman  has  locked  your  unconscious  form  inside  of 
a  deserted  creep  house  at  a  crazy  carnival.  You  awake  to  some  sobering  facts:  a  bomb  is  set 
to  explode,  and  only  30  real-lime  minutes  stands  between  you  and  eternity.  Somewhere, 
somehow  you  must  locate  and  defuse  the  explosive  —  but  wed  be  less  than  honest  if  we 
thought  you  had  more  than  a  ghost  of  a  chance!  Brrrr  —  a  real  cliffhanger!  Skill  Level: 
Moderate. 

TOXIC  DUMPSITE  —  Somethings  gone  very,  very  wrong  at  the  Toxic  Dumpsite  where  the 
treatment  and  burial  of  deadly  contaminants  take  place.  The  entire  plant  will  explode  like  the 
Fourth  of  July  in  less  than  30  minutes  —  unless  you  can  avoid  the  many  traps  and  protection 
systems  and  shut  the  plant  down  in  time.  Of  course,  time  is  the  one  luxury  you  haven't 
got .      !  Skill  Level:  Moderate.

TREASURE  QUEST  ISllS 

by  Luke  Buxton 

Atari  Conversion  by  Dan  Horn 

If  you've  ever  wanted  to  captain  the  trackless  seas  of  the  world  in  search  of 
riches  beyond  measure  with  a  band  of  treacherous  dogs  who  happen  to  double 
as  your  crew,  then  this  game  should  act  as  a  most  effective  substitute. 

As  captain  of  the  18th  century  sailing  ship  Zombie,  you  have  come  half  a 
world  in  your  quest  for  treasure.  Your  journey  has  brought  you  to  the  nefarious 
Blood  Straits,  and  perhaps  to  a  rapid  death  as  well!  In  your  favor  are  accurate 
chartings  of  the  area  and  a  dependable  navigator.  However,  the  Blood  Straits  is 
an  area  frequented  by  both  violent  storms  and  an  unsympathetic  British  Navy, 
which  may  mistake  you  and  your  men  for  pirates.  A  fickle  crew  and  a  rapidly  ap- 
proaching hurricane  season  round  out  your  problem  roster! 

In  TREASURE  QUEST  you  give  a  series  of  commands  to  your  microcom- 
puter as  you  go  atxiut  searching  for  buried  or  sunken  txjoty.  A  detailed  instruc- 
tion booklet  is  included  to  clarify  and  expound  upon  the  various  situations  en- 
countered, along  with  advice  and  hints  to  aid  in  the  search.  And,  each  game 
begins  differently,  assuring  many  hours  of  seafaring  fun!

ttie  way  for  an  entirely  new  form  of  Adventuring  —  you  control  tfie  actions 
of  TWO  separate  cfiaracters!  Tfiafs  right,  the  player  is  in  complete  control 
of  two  powerful  warriors,  the  stalwart  Jason,  and  the  mightythewed  Her-

quest  is  a  most  dangerous  one,  indeed  —  the  recovery  of  the  mythical 
Golden  Fleece  from  the  heart  of  the  horrific  Labyrinth!  But  have  a  care,  O

nefarious  network.  Evil  most  foul  abounds  within  its  walls,  including  all 
manner  of  traps,  tricks  and  a  gruesome  parade  of  maze  inhabitants.  Many

you  be  able  to  direct  Jason  and  Hercules  to  success? 

If  you're  ready  for  a  new  era  in  Adventuring,  LABYRINTH  OF  CRETE  is

you'll  be  amazed  at  the  authors'  slavish  devotion  to  the  spirit  of  the 
timeless  Greek  characters  and  situations.  Having  two  characters  means  a 
friend  can  get  in  on  the  fun  —  plus  an  Adventuring  first  —  a  tri-level  map 
that  will  help  you  plot  your  way  through  to  success!

IBM  Version  by  Fran  Green 

Nightwalker!  Beautiful  women.  Dangerous  tnen.  A  weird 
gravedigger.  They're  all  here  in  this  Interactive  tale  that 
challenges  you  to  gather  enough  evidence  to  crack  a 
dangerous  underground  heroin  ring.  The  story  unfolds  in  the 
famous  port  city  of  New  Orleans.  Far  from  the  glamour  and 
romance  of  Bourbon  Street,  vou  find  yourself  prowling  the 
seedy  bars  and  alleyways  or  the  waterfront  for  clues.  The 
word  is  out  on  the  grapevine.  A  nosy  reporter  (you)  is  snoop- 
ing around  for  information  from  everyone  and  anyone  who  II 
talk.  If  you're  the  kind  of  ace  reporter  that  judges  your 
sources  carefully,  you  could  end  up  with  the  story  of  a 
lifetime.  If  not,  you  could  find  yourself  on  a  pleasure  cruise 
down  the  Gulf  —  minus  the  boat!  Niqhtwalker  is  an  interac- 
tive story,  so  your  decisions  during  tne  game  have  a  direct 
bearing  on  its  outcome.  'Vou  collect  evidence,  buy  informa- 
tion, log  observations,  and  interview  townspeople.  You  must 
successfully  gather  enough  evidence  to  present  to  the  police 
for  a  bust.  Nightwalker  is  a  text-oriented  program  that  is 
beefed-up  with  some  sharp  graphics  routines,  and  has  an  ex- 
tensive data  base  that  assures  you  of  many,  many  hours  of 
varied  excitement  —  if  you  survive!

Galactic  Empire.  Galactic  Trader.  Galactic  Revolution.  Each  an  individual  chapter  in  an  expansive  saga  that  spans 
the  universe.  Author/Creator  Doug  Carlston  (Atari  conversions  by  Dave  Simmons)  has  weaved  an  intricate  mise-en-scene 
that  takes  you  across  the  galaxy  and  into  contact  with  distant  w/orlds  and  strange  alien  societies.  The  voyage  begins  m\h 
Galactic  Empire  w/hich  puts  you  in  command  of  a  fleet  of  starships  and  challenges  you  to  conquer  and  hold  the  twenty  in- 
habited worlds  of  the  central  galactic  system.  Next,  Galactic  Trader  finds  you  removed  from  the  lofty  position  of  command 
you  enjoyed  in  Empire,  but  provides  the  opportunity  for  you  to  buy  your  way  back  to  the  top  through  the  avenues  of  galac- 
tic trade.  Lastly,  Galactic  Revolution  —  the  final  conflict  —  lashes  the  series  together  as  you  try  to  unseat  the  evil  Emperor

Scott  Adams'  Graphics  Editor 

At  last  —  an  excellent  graptilcs  editor  for  ATARI  owners!  Ttie  Scott  Adams 
Graptiics  Editor  allows  ttie  user  to  draw  and  edit  tilghly  compressed  (Graptilcs 
Mode  7  '?)  pictures  using  over  50  different  colors  &  stiades.  Ttiis  Is  ttie  same 
editor  developed  and  used  by  Scott  Adams  to  create  the  vibrant  graptiics  in  tils 
tiigtily  acclaimed  SA.G.A.  Series. 

Pictures  created  witti  S AG.E.  may  be  inserted  into  BASIC  or  mactiine 
language  programs  ttiat  you've  written,  leaving  four  lines  or  half  ttie  screen 
respectively  for  text  placement  at  the  bottom  of  ttie  screen.  Witti  ttie  mactiine 
language  interpreter  stored  in  memory,  ttie  user  will  tiave  room  for  approximately 
16K  ol  user  programmable  memory  In  both  tape  and  disk  versions  The  pictures 
placed  in  memory  are  stored  in  a  compressed  numeric  format,  which  means  ttiat 
ttiey  can  be  saved  onto  either  tape  or  disk  or  even  embedded  into  a  BASIC  pro- 
gram as  a  string! 

But  can  I  ctiange  the  color  palette,  you  ask?  Certainly!  A  full  range  of  colors 
IS  available  with  SAGE  which  contains  between  50  to  100  colors  &  textures  eacti 
per  picture,  all  ol  which  can  be  altered  to  suit  your  specific  needs!  A  sample 
palette  is  included,  too.  Here  are  some  more  reasons  why  YOU  need  S.A.G.E.: 

*  Drawing  speed  —  pictures  load  &  draw  last! 

*  Picture  Size  —  many  ol  the  pictures  created  witti  S.A.G.E.  in  the  SA.G.A. 
Series  used  only  300-400  bytes  ol  memory  —  clearly  an  improvement  over  the  "old 
way"  which  could  eat  up  4000-8000  bytes  or  more  to  store  ttie  same  picture! 

*  Pictures  look  identical  on  both  the  newer  ATARIs  (which  use  the  GTIA 
chip)  and  ttie  older  models  (which  use  ttie  CTIA  chip).  Unlike  many  graphic 
packages  available  on  ttie  market  today.  S.A.G.E.  provides  great  picture  quality  on 
identical  systems  used  in  Europe,  too! 

*  SAGE  allows  you  to  place  graphics  quickly  and  easily  into  your  own 
programs. 

*  S.A.G.E.  package  includes  both  tape  and  disk  versions  and  an  easy-to- 
use  manual

DISASSEMBLER 


ATARI 


by  Ralph  Jones 
Attention,  ATARI  owners:  Your  disk  assembly  pro- 
blems are  at  an  end.  ULTRA  DISASSEMBLER  is  a 
superb,  new  utility  which  enables  the  user  to  analyze 
and  modify  existing  machine  language  programs. 
ULTRA  DISASSEMBLER  not  only  performs  like  other 
popular  disassemblers  (e.g.,  directly  translating 
machine  language  into  assembly  language)  but  it  also 
formats  the  output  into  highly  readable  pseudo-source 
code  with  standard  system  labels  (where  appropriate). 
Plus,  ULTRA  DISASSEMBLER  writes  the  source  code  to 
disk  in  a  form  suitable  for  editing  and  reassembly  with 
all  major  ATARI  assemblers,  including  ATARI  Micro, 
ATARI  Assembler/Editor,  DATASM-65,  EASMD  and 
others. 

Anyone  with  a  working  knowledge  of  6502 
assembly  language  and  the  ATARI  operating  system 
can  put  ULTRA  DISASSEMBLER  to  work  quickly  and  ef- 
fectively. ULTRA  DISASSEMBLER  has  been  designed 
for  use  with  the  following  equipment: 

•  One  ATARI  400  or  800  computer  with  at  least  32K 
RAM 

•  One  ATARI  810  (or  810-compatible)  disk  drive 

•  One  video  monitor  or  TV  set  (black  and  white  or 
color) 

Additionally,  the  performance  of  ULTRA  DIS- 
ASSEMBLER can  be  enhanced  with  the  addition  of  an 
extra  disk  drive,  a  printer  and  an  extra  16K  of  memory. 
Expand  your  system  when  you're  ready. 

The  bottom  line:  If  you  need  to  analyze  or  modify 
machine  language  programs,  you  need  a  solid  assist 
from  ULTRA  DISASSEMBLER,  new  for  1983  for  your 
ATARI  400  or  800. 

ATARI  400/800  32K  DISK    052-0174     $49.95     (£"35.99  Inc.  VAT) 


FEATURES 

•  Allows  disassembly  of  object  base,  e.g., 
disassemble  and  examine  code  in  a  cartridge. 

•  Disassembly  is  fully  reversible;  i.e.,  the  out- 
put code  is  written  to  disk  as  a  pseudo-source  file 
ready  for  reassembly  with  any  of  the  major  ATARI 
assemblers. 

•  Will  read  machine  language  code  from 
DOS  files  or  from  a  specified  list  of  absolute  disk 
sectors,  not  just  from  machine  memory. 

•  Make  "custom"  changes  to  ULTRA  DIS- 
ASSEMBLER with  an  optional  sector  editor,  such 
as  our  own  DISKEY  program. 

•  Extensive,  user-oriented  manual  supplied 
in  handsome  flip-open  binder.

able  to  actually  examine  a  disk  and  its  directory,  and  repair 
some  files  that  might  otherwise  have  been  lost.  DISKEY  also 
performs  a  multitude  of  other  practical  functions,  including 
the  following: 

*  Automatically  lists  any  unreadable  or  destroyed  sectors

PRINT  USING  ■  gives  your  Apple  the  ability  lo  print  numeric  values  in  a  specified  format.  The  syntax  is  similar  to  the  PRINT  USING 
command  in  ottier  popular  BASIC'S.  It  supports  commas,  floating  dollar  signs,  asterisk  fill,  and  has  an  overflow  indicator. 

STRING  SEARCH  ■  allows  your  Apple  to  rapidly  search  through  one  string  ol  characters  for  the  occurrence  of  another  string.  It  also 
supports  searching  a  string  for  a  list  ol  words  or  phrases. 

IF-THEN-ELSE  —  allows  your  Apple  to  execute  one  statement  (or  set  of  statements)  if  the  'logical  condition"  (e.g..  A  >  B)  is  TRUE  and 
execute  a  diderent  statement  (or  set  of  statements)  if  the  condition  is  FALSE.  You  may  use  multiple  lines  and  nest  IF-THEN-ELSEs  as  deeply 
as  you  wish. 

EXTENDED  INPUT  PACKAGE  —  makes  entering  data  from  the  keyboard  easier  to  control.  Includes  word  warp  (words  which  wont  lit  on 
the  current  line  are  moved  to  the  next  line  down  rather  than  being  split  in  two),  maximum  string  length  control  (will  not  accept  characters  past 
a  length  which  you  set),  a  control  character  filter  (all  control  characters  are  ignored  on  input),  and  a  selective  character  filter  (allows  you  to 
specify  up  to  20  different  characters  which  will  be  replaced  by  spaces  during  input). 

SCREEN  OUTPUT  PACKAGE  —  You  no  longer  need  to  spend  lime  counting  the  characters  in  a  PRINT  statement  to  make  sure  a  word 
doesn't  break  m  the  middle.  In  addition  to  automatic  word  wrap,  this  package  allows  you  to  set  single,  double  or  whatever  spacing  between 
lines,  automatic  Press  RETURN  TO  CONTINUE:'  message  when  the  screen  fills  (you  set  the  maximum  lines  per  screen),  and  automatic 
insertion  of  up  to  nine  different  variables  in  the  text  with  an  imbedded  code.  (Note:  the  Screen  Output  Package  will  not  work  on  a  printer ) 

APPLE  SPICE  is  a  set  of  fast,  assembly  language  routines  tfiat  alleviate  some  of  the  drudgery  of  writing  programs  In 
Applesoft  BASIC.  APPLE  SPICE  allows  you  to  concentrate  more  on  your  program  logic  and  less  on  things  lil<e  "prettifying"  the 
screen  and  detecting  keyboard  entry  errors.  APPLE  SPICE  also  greatly  expands  Applesoft's  capabilities  by  adding  features 
found  in  many  larger  BASICs  such  as  PRINT  USING,  STRING  SEARCH  (INSTR),  IF-THEN-ELSE,  and  LINE  INPUT. 

•  Easy-Patch  -  Beginners  with  no  machine  language  knowledge  can  use  it. 

•  Excellent  tutorial  step-by-step  manual.  Written  in  easy-to-understand  English. 

APPLE  SPICE  is  not  copy-protected.  You  may  include  APPLE  SPICE  in  your  commercial  programs  without  additional 
charge.  Just  mention  that  you  used  APPLE  SPICE  on  your  title  screen  and  in  your  documention. 

APPLE  SPICE  comes  with  a  clearly  written  hands-on  manual  (52  pages)  that  explains  every  feature  in  detail.  All  of  the  ex- 
amples listed  in  the  manual  are  included  on  the  APPLE  SPICE  diskette,  as  well  as  some  user-friendly  programs  that  make  it  a 
snap  to  change  APPLE  SPICE's  parameters  and  to  relocate  APPLE  SPICE  to  where  YOU  want  it  in  memory

It  is  entirely  possible  —  there  may  be  someone,  somewhere  who's 
yet  to  experience  the  arcade  event  of  the  year.  Of  course,  we're  talkin' 
about  Russ  Wetmore's  awesome  ATARI  achievement  —  PREPPIE!  But 
short  of  a  few  far-flung  Eskimos,  shipwrecked  sailors,  and  wayward 
micro  owners  in  the  Australian  Outback,  it  seems  that  wherever  ATARI'S 
are  found,  PREPPIE!  isn't  too  far  away! 

Just  in  case  you  haven't  heard,  up-and-coming  prepster  Wadsworth 
Overcash  is  the  star  of  PREPPIE!  Wadsworth's  in  quite  a  bind,  too,  and 
he's  depending  on  you  to  help  him  negotiate  a  wide  range  of  dangers  on 
the  most  harrowing  golf  course  in  America,  the  precarious  Nasty  Nine. 

Real-time  machine  language  graphics  bring  it  all  to  energetic  life 
while  coaxing  a  full  twenty-eight  colors  from  your  ATARI  400  or  800.  And 
PREPPIE!  also  features  an  outrageous  musical  repertoire  that  sup- 
plements the  rib-tickling  sound  effects. 

In  short,  we  suspect  you're  out  there  somewhere,  you  holdout  you. 
If  so,  this  is  your  big  chance  to  upgrade  your  social  standing  and  have  a 
little  fun  to  boot.  Be  the  last  on  your  block  —  pick  up  a  PREPPIE!  today.

Ohmygosh,  Wadsworth  Overcash  is  back!  Darn  straight,  and  this 
time  he's  returned  to  college  and  is  pledging  the  sleeiziest,  greaseball 
fraternity  in  this  or  any  other  school  —  Delta  Skelter  Omega!  Believe  us, 
Wadsworth's  misadventures  in  PREPPIE!  were  mere  overtures  to  the 
supreme  agonies  planned  for  our  stalwart  prepster  in  PREPPIE  II! 

In  PREPPIE  II!  Wadsworth  faces  a  battery  of  tests  designed  to  test 
his  mettle  as  a  Brother.  Surviving,  er.  .  .passing,  the  tests  means  ad- 
vancement to  the  next  level  for  further  "evaluation."  The  "testing  area" 
will  include  an  array  of  pits,  traps,  secret  passageways,  revolving  doors, 
and  a  surprise,  unknown  hazard.  And  —  there  will  be  special  cameo  ap- 
pearances by  "guests"  from  PREPPIE!,  too! 

The  prepster  you  couldn't  keep  down  on  the  Nasty  Nine  is  back  and 
as  resilient  as  Bubble  Yum.  Make  a  date  today  for  fun  —  PREPPIE  II!

SECURE  ALL  HATCHES!  PREPARE  TO  DIVE!  .  .  .  into  a 
fantastic  voyage  along  the  ocean  depths  with  Russ  Wetmore  and 
your  Atari  Computer. 

The  enemy  has  effectively  cut  off  your  fleet's  supply  lines  with 
the  most  impenetrable  mine  field  ever  devised.  Deep  below  any 
conventional  sub's  diving  level  lies  the  Master  Mine  that  controls  the 
entire  field. 

You  are  the  commander  of  the  nuclear  sub.  Sea  Dragon  ■  the 
only  sub  in  the  fleet  with  the  speed,  maneuverability  and  crew 
capable  of  destroying  the  Master  Mine.  As  you  snake  your  way 
through  treacherous  underwater  passages  to  reach  your  destination, 
you  must  avoid  the  hundreds  of  mines,  depth  charges,  laser  bases, 
and  supershooters  planted  along  the  way.  Prepare  for  the  ultimate 
sea  voyage!  {Sea  Dragon  is  also  available  for  the  TRS-80  Model  1  &  3, 
CoCo,  IBM,  Apple  and  Commodore  64.  See  page  2  for  details!)
