THE UNTOUCHABLES – Commodore 64 (1989) | Ocean's Classic Prohibition-Era Shooter
306The Untouchables, developed by Ocean Software and released in 1989, is a licensed video game adaptation of the 1987 film of the same name featuring Eliot Ness—your mission: bring down Al Capone’s criminal empire using a unique blend of arcade and shooter action across six cinematic levels
You'll experience a thrilling mix of gameplay styles:
Warehouse (platform shooter): Hunt gangsters in a scrolling warehouse, collecting evidence while avoiding gunfire.
Bridge (shooter gallery): Roll and dodge enemies as you take aim from a prone position in front of a sniper scope.
Alleys & Rooftop (cover-based shooting): Duck behind walls to reload and pick off foes; finally confront Frank Nitti in a tense rooftop duel
The game shines with its detailed sprites, smooth level transitions, and atmospheric 1930s–style music composed by Jonathan Dunn
While its high difficulty—especially the first warehouse level—proved frustrating to many, the variety of sections and faithful movie tie-ins earned it praise in the retro community. Reviews from legendary magazines like Zzap!64 rated it highly, and it even snagged Golden Joystick’s 8-bit Game of the Year
A standout among movie adaptations on C64, The Untouchables remains remembered for its ambition, variety, and challenging gameplay that reflect the cinematic legacy of Prohibition-era Chicago
