Night City
You have been out partying, but when you arrive at your house, you notice that
you’ve lost your keys. Furthermore, you’ve promised to be home at 3:00, and
your watch is missing too. Suddenly, you are approached by a police officer
who asks for your ID, and you can’t seem to find that either. You run from the
police, into the night city. You must find your identification, your watch and
your keys before 3 o’clock!
In this arcade adventure game, you run through the streets of the bleak city
infested with rats, angry policemen and evil ghosts, looking for your
belongings. The streets scroll from left to right, and going up or down takes
you to another street. You’ve got a gun with which to kill the enemies, but
they respawn quickly, and when you’ve run out of bullets, you can only rely on
kicks, or try to avoid the ghosts’ rays by ducking. At some spots, you can
replenish your energy and ammunition.
Finding your watch will let you know how much time you have left, the ID
papers will stop the police from bothering you, and finding all your keys will
allow you to get home and end the game. The action is fast, and so is the in-
game music accompanying the suitably toned-downed graphics of Night City.
