Buck Rogers: Planet of Zoom,[a] known as Zoom 909[b] in Japan, is a pseudo-3D rail shooter released as an arcade video game by Sega in 1982. The player controls a spaceship in a third-person perspective,[4][5] adapting the three-dimensional perspective of Sega's earlier racing game Turbo (1981) for the space shoot 'em up genre.[6] It used the Buck Rogers license, referencing the space battles,[7] though Buck himself is never seen.

The arcade game debuted at the Amusement & Music Operators Association (AMOA) show, held during November 18–20, 1982, where it was considered one of the show's best games and a milestone for demonstrating the potential of 3D shoot 'em up gameplay.[6] Ports were released for the SG-1000, Atari 2600, Atari 5200, Atari 8-bit family, Coleco Adam, ColecoVision, Intellivision, MSX, Commodore 64, VIC-20, TI-99/4A, Apple II, and ZX Spectrum. The IBM PC version uses CGA graphics.[8][9][10] The ColecoVision version was released in April 1984.[11]
