Moon Patrol

In 1984 Irem (of R-type fame) released this game on the MSX.

It is one of my favorite games. I always like the way the driver gets bumped out of the moon car.

I had this on 2600 as a kid. Fun game but really under-rated. One of those hidden gems. And I love the blues riff that's used for the music.

Indeed a wonderful hidden game and really underrated game. That tune is indeed very catchy :).

This was the "fun" game the teacher would let us play if we were ood in computer lab but id still rather play Oregon Trail.
