This reminds me of some little known arcade game from some time ago, you were this little yellow fella who had to go round eating dots whilst being chased by ghosts, darn it the name escapes me.
If the disc on your controller was all tired and old and used, your corner-hugging abilities were hindered, subsequently bumping you into the coppers. Very frustrating. I won $100 in a contest playing this game at a mall in Ontario. Hilarious.
lol the music used to drive my mom crazy too....great game i used to get deep into the game...but the control is tough u have to make sharp turns to get money etc... i wish they would add this to a collection for the ds etc.. to introduce this game to the yopung kids...the music and graphics were very colorful and entertaining

I loved this game, but sadly I think like Beauty and the Beast they didn't put it on the Intellivision best of games for Nintendo because of the similarities between Pac-Man and Donkey Kong. :P
That said, thank you for sharing some great memories of the game here.
For once someone using real hardware for a gameplay video. Thanks. Intv Lock N Chase is one of my favorite dot-gobblers on any system (2nd to Pac Man jr on the 2600). I've never broken 20k though
The Intellivision was the first and only game console to be designed by General Instrument. It was also the first 16-bit game console, using GI's CP-1610 processor clocked at a meager 894 kHz, which runs rather hot despite the low clock frequency.
LOVED this game back in the day. think it plays and feels better than the arcade original. I love the fact that my first console the Intellivision still works perfectly to this day.
There was a bug in this game where you could "escape" the tunnels and run along the sides of the wall. When you scrolled completely off of the screen, you would score tons of points, and it would be impossible to die, meaning you could easily rack up a million points (before the game rotated back to zero again)
My parents bought this system for me when I was 5. That first night I played Space Invaders for several hours straight and ended up with black and blue thumbs from the side buttons. Back then I was best in my neighborhood at Baseball--man, my defense was impeccable. Even after NES, I went back to the Intellivision. Something about that system just clicked. Looking back now...it seems like the fact that I preferred Intellivision to Atari really defined my personality--in a strange way.
My uncle had one of these and I LOOOVED this game. No joking.. he developed a brain tumor and was never the same after the surgery. :-/ It makes me scared to get one of these again and replay it.. With the brain cell loss I've already suffered from being married I'm scared I'd never survive it.
@jfl125 actually, there was a cat and mouse type game before Pac Man, so to say this is a rip off of it is inaccurate. All games pay homage to something that came before it and Pac Man is no different
De los mejores juegos que tuvo la consola de intellivision. this ,the beauty and the best,burguer time. was my favorites games when was a child jijiji.
es mucho mejor esta version q la de atari.
lastima que el jugador del video sea tan pesimo, para tan mavarilloso juego. jajajaa
Aghhhh he was so close to finishing the clock level! what was next?? I can remember how difficult this got in later levels and this was about as far as I used to get. My thumb would ache on the disc controller and my eyes would be so dry from not blinking. Always used to get beat because the stupid controller let me down (well that's my excuse!) and he wouldn't go where I wanted to in my panic! great game- Happy days!
i grew up with this better than 2600 version because later i got an intellivision 2 and swapped the intellivsion removable controllers with colecovision controllers i even had the access to the keypad
I remember exploiting the "glitch" in this game: you can lock yourselves in the walls, going up and down in a loop, getting MAD points while doing so. Great game!
WoW the sound effects bring back great memories, I am only 24 but had some of the greatest gaming times of my life on this machine. I would say this, He Man, Beauty and the Beast, Utopia, Worm Whomper, Bump and Jump, Burger Time, and Dracula were what threw me into a gaming addiction that I am still currently in today.
Comparing this and the Atari 2600 port of Lock 'N Chase to the Atari 2600 version of Pac-Man is like comparing the Sega Saturn and 32X ports of Virtua Fighter 1 to the PS1 version of Tekken 1. One is an original game that succeeded in the arcades, but failed in its earliest port release; while the other is an inspiration (or what most people would say is a ripoff, clone, wannabe, etc.) that succeeded more in early home console business than Pac-Man/Virtua Fighter.
Oh, man...I used to watch my sister play this game all day. I still remember all the music and sound effects like it was yesterday. Nothing like using a telephone to play video games!
I like this game, but I do not like the bug that is in the game. When you go through the tunnel push up and down fast and your character will go off the screen. When this happens your score goes up fast.
1. It did better than Pac-Man at being ported to home consoles during its early years, just like when Namco's Tekken 1 did better in the home market than Sega's Virtua Fighter 1.
2. What differentiates itself are sliding doors and the goal to escape the building after obtaining the currency.
3. Sega's Head-On predates Namco's Pac-Man in dot-collecting maze games. Namco was also notable for creating other games that resemble Sega's.
Used to love this and play it till you could cook dinner on the game machine which used to get super hot. I remember a bug where if you went back and forth thru the hyper zone over and over, after a while you could walk thru walls until you locked a door. lol
Well..there are 4 enemy's, which you gotta run away for, the level colour is blue too, and the objective is to collect yellow ball thingy's...sooo..YES
You can lock out cops from the door you came in, and you have to escape the scene after all the yellow balls are taken.
The yellow balls, believe it or not, are actually gold coins. You are a theif trying to rob a bank with cops on your tail. Collect all the money and escape in one piece.
The loud sound effects represent the bank alarm going off. Just ignore that darn sound, evade the coppas, and get the heck out with the dough. :)
On top of with 2 lock doors, u can trap the cops in the corner, earning you a 100,300,3000 point bonus depending on if 1,2 or 3 caught in corner at same time.
I loved this game! If you correctly timed a quick 360 of the control disc by the right-hand tunnel you could glitch down the side of the screen with your score going crazy. My mate could never understand my ma-hoosive high scores..! Good times.
You got killed a lot! My pattern was to lock one or two of the "cops" in the upper right area and clear the two vertical hallways to either side of the central chamber (those were death traps!) and ignore the dollar sign, since it froze you as well as the cops. Can't quite remember what the list of prizes was, though. I remember a Heart being high on the list.
I made it only once at that time and ill never forget (at normal difficulty level) ... Shit that was so hard. Remember the feeling of the disk controller ? And those tiny side buttons ?? What were they thinking ???
That is one decent path, I have one that worked thru the bobby pin level without much trouble, and still did decent with modifications afterwords... I may put it up if I can figure how to record from Bliss.
Damn was i good at this game!....bloody great i get to see it again....shame i moved to vancouver and left all my intelivision games and atari games in the uk...
Fun game. A pac-man knockoff though. My mom always told me to turn the sound down when I played this. The music when the money sign came on drove her crazy!
@kmartclock86 A copycat for sure, but hardly a knockoff--the whole cat-and-mouse thing works great here because you could actually stop the character anywhere and dodge back and forth opposite a wall from a cop--better yet, you could lock them into one of the four corners for a set amount of time and earn points for doing it, in addition to picking up the gold pieces. It actually gave a tangible story to the maze collecting game--and the box art was just fantastic.
This is one of my favorite Intellivision games! On the original game console you could "steal" the loot on the right side. For example, on the last board in this video you could get bonus points for going back and forth by the clock. (The crook appears on left side of screen, then right, then left, until you hear the chime.)
OMG! I remember that too.. up and down on the joypad thingy... wow... remember all the bonus things playing mario bros for the first time? hehe (on nintendo)
I forgot what level I got to in this game when I was a kid. I know me and a couple kids in the neighbor hood always played and when we got to a new level..we would call each other and run over to each others house and make sure they werent lying. I remember a clock level, a key level, I think a radio level that was grey colored.
Oh my god, this brought back memories of when I was under five years old.... Thank you, I had forgotten about this one, it's somewhat emotional for me to remember those good times.
thanks for the upload i appreciate it :) I just bought an intellivision recently and am looking on the tube for some good games to find :D any recommendations please PM me
This was one of the very best "Pac-Man with a twist" games ever made (along with Lady Bug, which I still have for ColecoVision). I never tried any other version of LnC, but this was good enough.
You can trap the cops in the corners for extra points. 100 for one and 300 for two. I never got 3 or more trapped in the corners. I see you got to the clock before the game ended. I have gotten all the way up to the heart level which is worth 5,000 points. Is there anything beyond the heart?
More like Data East's... but to the best of my knowledge, it was Intellivision's exclusive. And IMO, even better than Pac-Man, since you could throw someone off your trail by locking a door in their path.
Yeah this game was pretty cool. anyone who was child in the 80's such as myself knew this game. it predates nintendo of course and could keep u busy playing for hours.. good times!
There is Intellivision Lives! for the PS2, it has over 60 original Intellivision games with the original graphics, sounds, and gameplay (with the obvious exception of having the controls reworked for the Dualshock 2). Sadly, Lock 'N Chase, Burger Time, and Utopia aren't included in the package... :/
This was my late grandfather's favorite Intellivision game!! I remember playing with him when I was 6 or 7 up until he passed away in 1995. What fun times we had and to think it was my grandfather who fueled my love for gaming all those years ago. No, I never got to play Sega Genesis with him, but I'm sure he would've enjoyed it all the same. :'-D
Do you believe me if I tell you that I finished all the icons of this game when I was 10 or 11 at regular difficulty (when pressing disk at start) ? I hardly can beleive it myself. The last icon was a heart. This game was VERY difficult in the last levels. You HAVE to lock 2 or 3 cops all the time if you want to move. Was the only way. Thx for that post dude.
that song was done by an actual music group called Astrosmash (I know, after the game right? yep!) Intellivision Lives asked to put it in the game, and as Astrosmash is big INTV fans, they said yes.
man i remember being really really good at this game..and seeing all the levels and the things you collect really brings it back...what were the levels in order..hat, phone, clock etc...

This was a very fun game. Wish it had been included on Intellivision Lives for the PS2.

Technically, Data East made it, so Intv would have to license the rights for it.

Yeah this game was pretty cool. anyone who was child in the 80's such as myself knew this game. it predates nintendo of course and could keep u busy playing for hours.. good times!

That'd be sweet if somebody re-made some of the intellivision games; Lock 'N Chase for the PS3 maybe?

There is Intellivision Lives! for the PS2, it has over 60 original Intellivision games with the original graphics, sounds, and gameplay (with the obvious exception of having the controls reworked for the Dualshock 2). Sadly, Lock 'N Chase, Burger Time, and Utopia aren't included in the package... :/

Burgertime and L'nC were done by outside developers. They couldn't be put in the package without licensing.

This was my late grandfather's favorite Intellivision game!! I remember playing with him when I was 6 or 7 up until he passed away in 1995. What fun times we had and to think it was my grandfather who fueled my love for gaming all those years ago. No, I never got to play Sega Genesis with him, but I'm sure he would've enjoyed it all the same. :'-D

Do you believe me if I tell you that I finished all the icons of this game when I was 10 or 11 at regular difficulty (when pressing disk at start) ? I hardly can beleive it myself. The last icon was a heart. This game was VERY difficult in the last levels. You HAVE to lock 2 or 3 cops all the time if you want to move. Was the only way. Thx for that post dude.

Did anyone ever push down when he was going through the tunnel to come out on the other side of the screen? Your score would go up higher and higher.

Has anyone heard the "I want my Intellivision" song?
It's on a PS2 Intellivision compilation. It's really cheesy ;-)

mkbadger - I have and I like the song. On Intellivision dot com u can get a CD that has the song on it. I have the GameCube version
doommasternick 4 years ago
that song was done by an actual music group called Astrosmash (I know, after the game right? yep!) Intellivision Lives asked to put it in the game, and as Astrosmash is big INTV fans, they said yes.

It's great how probably we all start the game the same way: first on the right and then up to trap the cop. i have always did the same! Great!

I loved this game along with Tron:Deadly Disks, Dungeons & Dragons & B17. Much better than the too perfect games of today.

One time the Intellevision overheated and the guy got stuck in the side border out of reach of the cops and the score just went up exponentially.
