Reviews for A.T.A.C. (#10441)

Review by Raphie on 03 Jan 2013 (Rating: 3)

Not a bad little game from the Shaw Brothers. Simply shoot the number of enemies needed to progress through the levels. It also has a Carnival-style mini-game after each completed level though it doesn't seem to give you enough time to actually finish it. The gameplay is quite repetitive which doesn't help its lastability but it is quite fun for what it is.

Too poor for a 1987 release ...

An horizontal helicopter shoot'em up, looks ok, it's playable, but it's not challenging or intriguing.
2/5

A game included in the Fun4 tape of the Sinclair User magazine.
It's not meant to be a hit and it sure isn't, it's playable enough but seems rather limited and repetitive after awhile.
You pilot an Heli, move either left or right shooting enemies that appear on sight, they never shot at you. Between levels there is a Carnival mini-game. Each levels as a different background (including the mini-games) and features additional different enemies. It's an average shoot 'em up, fun for a few go's.
