Space Dungeon - Home Versions

Home Versions

The only home version of Space Dungeon appears to have been for the Atari 5200 system, and was released in 1983. The game cartridge came prepackaged with a dual-controller holder, allowing players to snap two stock controllers in and play like in the arcade.

The game differs from the arcade original in a number of ways, most notably in that most of the objects are approximately four times the size, spores can be launched by enemies only in the eight ordinal directions, and the enemies are considerably less aggressive.

It was also released as part of the PlayStation Portable game Taito Legends Power-Up along with other Taito favorites. This appears to be the only modern-day inclusion.

Famous quotes containing the words home and/or versions:

    I would rather have as my patron a host of anonymous citizens digging into their own pockets for the price of a book or a magazine than a small body of enlightened and responsible men administering public funds. I would rather chance my personal vision of truth striking home here and there in the chaos of publication that exists than attempt to filter it through a few sets of official, honorably public-spirited scruples.
    John Updike (b. 1932)

    The assumption must be that those who can see value only in tradition, or versions of it, deny man’s ability to adapt to changing circumstances.
    Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)
