You'll find the knock-off version elsewhere in the archive but this is the official Atarisoft version and is better than the Anirog version in every way. Better graphics, better sound and, most importantly, better playing. It's still a game I've never felt any love for but this did show that waiting for the official version sometimes did pay off. The usual 1983 spartan sound effects are present but a passable soundtrack does play.
So, despite being the better version it's still Moon Patrol, a game that never clicked for me and gets old very quickly.
