`Megamania is a game for the Atari 2600 that was released by Activision in 1982. It is a fixed shooter game that resembles Astro Blaster, but with more absurd enemies and a Star Trek-inspired spaceship. The game is supposed to be a humorous take on the arcade genre, but is it really fun or just frustrating? Here's my review of Megamania.


The game consists of eight waves of enemies that fly across the screen in different patterns. You have to shoot them down before they reach the bottom or before your energy bar runs out. The enemies are not your typical aliens or spaceships, but rather everyday objects like hamburgers, cookies, tires, diamonds, and even bow ties. Some of them are easy to hit, while others are very fast or erratic. The game gets harder as you progress through the waves, with more enemies and faster speeds.


The graphics of Megamania are simple but colorful and detailed. The enemies look like what they are supposed to be, and some of them even have funny faces or expressions. The sound effects are also decent, with a satisfying explosion when you hit an enemy and a warning beep when your energy is low. The music is catchy and upbeat, although it can get repetitive after a while.


The gameplay of Megamania is challenging but addictive. You have to be quick and accurate with your shots, as well as avoid getting hit by the enemy fire. The game requires good timing and reflexes, as well as some strategy and memorization of the enemy patterns. The game also rewards you with bonus points for clearing a wave with more energy left, which adds some incentive to play better.


The main problem with Megamania is that it can get very frustrating at times. The game has no difficulty settings or options to adjust the speed or number of enemies. Some waves are much harder than others, and some enemies are almost impossible to hit without losing energy or lives. The game also has no end or final boss; it just loops endlessly until you lose all your lives or reach 999999 points (which causes the game to crash). This can make the game feel monotonous and unrewarding after a while.


Overall, Megamania is a fun and quirky shooter game for the Atari 2600 that offers a good challenge and some laughs along the way. It is not a perfect game by any means; it can be unfair and frustrating at times, and it lacks variety and replay value in the long run. But if you're looking for a humorous twist on the arcade genre, Megamania might be worth checking out.`
