Gameplay
[edit]Lunar Lander is a game in which the player must land a ship on the Moon, in the style of other Lunar Lander games.[1]
This game was part of a series of arcade game clones for the TRS-80 and Atari 8-bit computers. Though not exactly the same as the Atari, Inc. version of Lunar Lander, it was advertised as "an arcade game simulation".[2][3]
Reception
[edit]Richard McGrath reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "I have no real complaints. Adventure International has a winning program here. It is just as advertised--a quality version of an old standby."[1]
