Note - Telegames owns the rights to manufacture many ColecoVision cartridges, and still does so. As a result, many games listed below are also available from Telegames in assorted cases (many reused) with varied labels. Games listed below for Telegames are either (1) only available from Telegames, (2) only available from Telegames and Bit Corp, or (3) are marketed by Telegames under a different name.

Note - CBS produced games for Coleco for European release. As a result, many Coleco titles listed below are also available from CBS in PAL format. Games listed below for CBS are those marketed by CBS under a different name.

Note - CBS also produced many "prototype" games in Europe. These cartridges have been packaged and sold in many places; on the list below, prototypes produced in quantity by CBS are marked (p - CBS).

Note - Most of the 20th Century Fox games were unreleased. We bought most of the stuff from Coleco and had CBS produce the games for us with the labels. - 66

Note - Coleco had a number of reproductions done of certain unreleased carts such as Fall Guy, Escape from the Mindmaster, MASH, etc. They had the completed games and had CBS produce some carts and labels. Many can still be purchased from them. These are as close to an official release of these games as there was. Evidently, they held Colecovision license. - 66

EUROPEAN/CBS GAME RELEASES

Coleco games for the European market were produced by CBS Electronics in England. The carts have the same size as the US ones, but the upper end has a different shape.

There is a finger-thick indentation on each side, probably to make it easier to get the cart out of the system slot. The labels are black; on the upper half there's the CBS/Colecovision character and the name of the game. Below is a white box with a lot of writing, copyright and production information, the model number (4Lxxxx), and often the sentence "for use on pal-tv-system only". Sometimes the labels are multilingual.

UNRELEASED GAMES

Coleco was infamous for not putting out advertised cartridges. Several of the carts were shown in the catalog that came with the ColecoVision. It is not known if the screen shots shown were simple artist renditions, or if somewhere an actual demo or prototype of the cartridges exist. - JC

Being in the toy business, Coleco was a marketing-driven company. All kinds of screens, demos, and such were developed to be shown at various trade shows (CES, Toy Fair) and if the wholesale buyers didn't bite, they wouldn't get produced. Additionally, the box art was *always* produced months before the real game art was even designed properly (due to the print lag time), so by the time the box was printed, the game art probably had changed significantly. - 56

In the specific case of 2010: The Graphic Action Game a brochure with a picture of a screen shot was produced before any coding had begun. - 65

The following cartridges, put out by the listed manufacturer, reportedly do not exist, even as a prototype or demo cart. Solid evidence of their existence would be greatly appreciated.

CARTRIDGE TIDBITS, TIPS, AND EASTER EGGS

20102010: The Graphic Action Game
Jim Wolf and two colleagues included an easter egg in the game which causes their names to scroll across the screen. To see it, power up all 5 communication circuits in skill level 5 before powering up any other circuits, then squeeze both firing buttons simultaneously. - 65

Alcazar the Forgotten Fortress
This game was designed by Activision, but never released by them. All known copies were released by Telegames, but with acombined Activision/Telegames label.

B.C.'s Quest for Tires II: Grog's Revenge
The following secret codes can be used to change levels: - 17

Mountain 1: 2,2 in cave 3
3,3 in cave 5
4,4 in cave 1
5,5 in cave 1

Mountain 2: 2,2 in cave 1
2,3 in cave 1
4,4 in cave 1
4,5 in cave 5
6,2 in cave 10
7,8 in cave 5

Mountain 3: 3,1 in cave 5 (hint: "as easy aspi",
ie. 3.1415925)
4,1 in cave 7
5,9 in cave 8
2,5 in cave 8

[Editor's note: I just realized - for whatever reason, the value of pi given here is wrong. It's 3.14159265; the last digit should thus be 6, or perhaps 7 if rounding, but not 5.]

Blockade Runner
Need the manual - 01

Bump'n JumpBump 'n' Jump
Pales in comparison to Intellivision version, with off-key music, washed-out colors, sluggish control, unforgiving collisiondetection, and other errors and annoyances. - 20

There is a bonus of 50,000 points when you completea level without bumping off any emery cars. You can also cheat by speeding up at the very beginning of a level and jumping off to the side of the screen where you can't see your car. Landing there, you can cruise through the whole level without doing anything. If you play it to a million the letter G appears by the number of guys you have left. You can now have infinate lives for one or two levels. - 60

BurgerTime
Burger TimeAfter completing the first round of boards, the game speeds up. Thus, pepper is in short supply as well as your patience.Includes six boards, two _more_ than the arcade version (the Intellivision version actually includes still two more). Based upon the arcade game by DataEast. - 24 To do well at BurgerTime, you need to let your Chefs get killed when you have an excess and reserve you peppers till when you reallyneed to use them. It is much easier to gain extra lives than it is to buildup a big supply of peppers. Extra lives come quickly and easily in thegame, peppers don't.

Go to the screen where there are two long ladders on the right side of the screen. Use this screen to build up your supply of peppers. Enemies can be easily avoided on this level. Just run around avoiding enemies and wait for peppers to pop up and grab them. Do this over and over until you have an ample supply then finish level. If you let yourselfget killed instead of using up all your peppers to stay alive you can play this game for as long as you like. The hardest part of the game is that it is impossible to fake out the enemies by going one way and then switching directions. They never fall for it. - 60

Cabbage Patch Kids Adventure in the Park
Prototype is an enhanced version of the released product, not a predecessor. - JH

CarnivalCarnival
Shoot the hardest targets (pipes and letters) first; once you get down to a few targets the ducks come out in volume, leaving little time or ammunition to shoot the harder stuff. - JC

Based upon the arcade game Sega. - 24

Centipede
Atarisoft made a perfect port of Centipede for ColecoVision. With roller controller, you have the arcade version at home! Based upon the arcade game by Atari. - 24 In the Centipede cart rom, there is a message at the end of the code:

IF YOU ARE READING THIS, AND YOU WORK AT COLECO,
THEN PLEASE TELL GEORGE KISS I SAID HELLO. THANKS.
SINCERELY, LARRYCLAGUE

PROGRAMMED BY: L CLAGUE
GRAPHICS AND ANIMATION BY: L CLAGUE
SOUND DATA SUPPLIED BY: A FUCHS
START DATE: 04/20/83
COMPLETION DATE: 08/23/83 - 31

Chess ChallengerChess Challenger
From the catalog: - 24
Chess Challenger by Fidelity (Chess Challenger (C) 1977) Strategy Game Cartridge #2438
This game uses the World Champion Chess programs byFidelity. Plan your defense with care -- the computer is a formidable opponent. But don't get too confident -- he'll never play the same way again!

Chuck Norris Superkicks
Also released as Kung Fu Superkicks, by Telegames. - JC

Congo Bongo
Based upon the arcade game by Sega. - 24

Cosmic AvengerCosmic Avenger
With some skill, you can make the homing missile that come at you strike the UFO's by dodging the missile so it goes in front of you, then moving up and down, using it like a guided missile. - JC

For a completely different gaming experience, trying seeing how long you can survive using bombs _only_. - JH
Based upon the arcade game by Universal. - 24

The Dam Busters
This game is damn near impossible without the manuals - 01

Survival tips:
Don't fly over the icons on the map. These are German bases that will throw up a bunch of flak.
Don't let your engines overheat, turn down the throttle after takeoff. If an engine catches fire extinguish it and shut down the corresponding one on the other wing. If you don't the Lanc. will be difficult to control. Don't do this a second time.

You must come in at a certain altitude and airspeedto drop the bomb. Don't forget to get the bomb spinning or the indicators will not come up on the pilot's window.

Be certain to retract the landing gear after takeoff. To shake fighters, try a corkscrew maneuver (downward spiral). - 17

Barnes Wallace, who was involved with the WW II Lancaster Dambusters, was the technical consultant for the game. - 57

Dig Dug
Programming of this game was completed. - 53

All-in-all, the ColecoVision version of this classic was reasonable. Given that I'm not the world's foremost authority on Dig Dug, it doesn't really seem to stand out from the Intellivison or Atari 5200 versions. - JH

Defender
Since the ColecoVision could not handle scrolling very well due its electronic design, the scrolling leaves Defender tobe desired. However, it keeps true to the Williams arcade game. - 24

Donkey KongDonkey Kong
Move Mario up the first broken ladder then bring him back down, walk him to the left so that his back is almost touchingthe same broken ladder, and then move him a step of two to the right and jump. Depending on the version you have, he'll fall through the bottom andland in screen 2, or after several seconds he'll appear on the top girder next to Kong. This apparently doesn't work with all versions of the cartridge. - JC

In the 3rd screen, get to the top right hand part of the screen where the purse is. Below is a short ladder, get right above it and wiggle up & down, you'll fall through the metal floor. - JC

When climbing up or down any ladder, you can move at super speed by pausing momentarily (allowing the joystick to center), and then continuing your climb. - JC

Perfect port of the original game except for two flaws. First, Donkey Kong is on the wrong side of the first board (easy for anyone to pick up).

Second, there is no mudpie level which means the rivet and elevator (with no "bouncing springs") levels are repeated. Based upon the arcade game by Nintendo. - 24

You can score for jumping when underneath a rollingbarrel. On the fourth girder (one level below Donkey Kong), wait until a barrel one level above comes to the lower end of the girder. As it comes across, follow it, and jump while underneath it. - 24

On the elevator screen, go up to donkey kong instead of climbing the ladder. He won't kill you; you could climb the second ladder and jump around him and make his face turn brown. - 48

Donkey Kong Jr.Donkey Kong Jr.
Uses the same music for the key-n-lock level as used for the final level on Popeye for ColecoVision. Based upon the arcade gameby Nintendo. - 24

In the screen containing pelicans, you can actuallyclimb through the dirt. To do so, get underneath a patch of dirt, and climball the way up to the dirt. At that point, move Donkey Kong Jr. left, right, and left again. You can then climb right through the dirt. - 32

On the springboard birds screen, jump to the top ledge on the right of the screen, and approach the gap. Walking off the ledge, Junior grabs an invisible vine that let you climb up to the celing in midair. - 48

Dot to Dot Zot!
Originally created for the Nabu Home Computer network, a ColecoVision conversion was rumored but never completed. - 17

Dragon's Lair
Right before the crash, Coleco had the rights to Dragon's Lair, and was going to release an expansion unit to let you hook up an LD player. The idea was the controller would be the ColecoVision, and you could play Dragon's Lair in its entirety. - 16
A version of Dragon's Lair was released for ADAM. -JH

Dungeons & Dragons IV
The Intellivision D&D game then in development, Tower of Mystery, was the third D&D game from Mattel, so apparently this game was envisioned as an original. Started 11/28/83. - 36

Epyx games
Two case variants, one has a normal rounded case end and the other has a tapered end much like Imagic carts. Gateway To Apshai is normally the regular case and the other two normally have tapered cases." - 01

Escape From the Mindmaster
Of note: the startup screen is an EPYX screen, not an Arcadia or Starpath screen, so this effort apparently occured after Starpath had been acquired by Epyx. - 5

Facemaker
It's Mr. Potato-Head on a cartridge! - 01
Also released as Make-A-Face. - JC

Flashlight
Conversion of an Intellivision/Atari game then in development. Scheduled start: 12/19/83. - 36

Flying Brassieres
Never intended for release, this prototype is actually a privately burned variation upon Moon Patrol, with a different variety of objects (including bras) to shoot at. - 22

Fortune Builder
The mother of all Sim* games! But you need both themanual and the "Strategy Guide" to play - 01
And the overlays certainly don't hurt, either. - JH

Frenzy
Pressing "#" during the game resets the game. - 24
Killing Otto in the Big Otto maze is a deadly mistake - Big Otto sends out hordes of super-fast Ottos to get you. - 24

Frogger
Perfect port of the arcade game by Sega. - 24

Frontline
You can get away with using a normal controller by hitting 1-2-3 at once on the keypad to launch a grenade/get into the tank- 01
You can move through the holes in the wall by rotating and pushing forward at the same time. - JC

Galaxian
The following dedication is coded into the ROM for the cart:
DEDICATED TO THE ONE I LOVE
I LOVE YOU JENEANE (sp?) - 08

Gateway to Apshai
Manual helpful but not necessary - 01

GORFGorf
Loses points for not having the "Galaxian" stage like the arcade game. - 01
The "Galaxian" stage for Gorf was programmed by Jim Wolf and Joe Clark at Nuvatec, Inc., but was dropped by Coleco to keep the cartridge to 16K. - 65
Based upon the arcade game by Bally/Midway. - 24

Horse Racing
From the catalog: - 24
Horse Racing by Fidelity (Original copyright is (C)1982) Casino Game Cartridge #2442
They're off and running! Watch the board as the odds change. The horses start out of the gate -- then jockey for position on the straightaway. Which horse will win ... place ... show? For the next race, the computer changes the entries and if you want, even the track conditions! It's a different race every time!

Hydroplane
A point-of-view speedboat race, based on an Intellivision game in development at the time. Program start 11/21/83. - 36

Illusions
Very surreal game once you figure out what to do...- 01
And it makes -no- sense until you do... - JH

Journey
In 1983, Electronic Games magazine reported that Coleco had purchased exclusive rights to the Bally/Midway Journey arcadegame (not to be confused with Journey Escape for the 2600). - 38

Joust
Programming was completed for this game. - 53

I've had one report that Joust was released, but absolutely no independent confirmation of this. I have played the completed prototype, and it's quite good - better than the 5200 or NES versions, IMHO. The control is a bit less responsive than I'd like, and the version I played had no sound, but it's still the best of what I've always considered a weak lot of conversions. - JH

Ken Uston's Blackjack/Poker
Very good party game to play with friends. Overlaysare a bit helpful during a Blackjack game but not all that neccessaryfor a Poker game. Up to 4 players at a time. - TC

Kung Fu Superkicks
Also released as Chuck Norris Superkicks, by Xonox.- JC

Lady Bug
This is (IMHO) the BEST arcade conversion available on the ColecoVision. - 18

Based upon the arcade game by Universal. - 24

Linking Logic
Imagine this: a man on a pedestal sitting on the left side of the TV screen. You, his faithful fowl pet, are sitting on the other side on a similar pedestal at the same height. Your mission: help your master make it through the room maze using parts lying around. Can you fly around placing the parts in the right spots before your master sets foot into the maze?

Like Sierra On-line's "The Incredible Machine," you must place the parts (such as a ladder or crossover board) to help your master safely pass through the maze. You have a limited amount of time, though, because the pedestals raise up every few seconds. When it gets to the top floor, your master will go through the maze. Designed by Freida Lennekerker. - 24

LoopingLooping
Similar to the later game, Sopwith, for PC, you fly a plane around the screen and shoot at things. What Sopwith lacked in graphics, this game lacked in gameplay. Based upon the arcade game by Venture Line. - 24

Magic Carpet
Scheduled to begin 2/6/84. Since the Nice group continued working after 1/20/84, it's possible that a playable version of this game was developed. - 36

Make-A-Face
Also released as Facemaker. - JC
Listed as a pirated version in the Digital Press Price Guide. - JH

Masters of the Universe: The Power of He-Man
Programmed by Steve Roney, based upon the original Atari version of the game. The game was completed just before Mattel Electronics closed down, but was never released. - 36

Masters of the Universe II
Being programmed by Eric del Sesto based upon the original Intellivision version (which was never released by Mattel, but instead reworked by INTV Corp. using different characters and released as Diner, a sequel to BurgerTime). Unfinished. - 36

Meteoric Shower
Not released as a cartridge, the game is only available in the built in version that comes with the Telegames Personal Arcade. - JH

Missile Command
A playable version was never developed. Only a title screen was created. - 53

Mr DoMr. Do!
If you drop two adjacent apples and get crushed by the first one, you are squished but don't die. You then have to restart the game. - JC

The pause button is "*". Hit it once for a blank screen with repetitious music; hit is twice more to begin play again. Basedupon the arcade game by Universal. - 24

You can fire through thin walls at short distance in Mr. Do!, and can freeze all enemies by taking the "treat" in the middle when the Extra apple at the top of the screen is on a red letter. - 54

Mr. Do!'s Castle
In order to get the most alphamonsters in "Mr. Do!'s Castle", hit one or two of the key blocks with your hammer as you crossthe board. After destroying all the monsters except for two or three, you can hit the last key block and run up to the top of the board and stand near the door. Wait for the unicorns to get near you and get the door "prize" and hammer away! This was an old arcade trick I used quite frequently, and it still works for this game.

In "Castle", red unicorns are the tamest ones. Green unicorns are a bit wilder, and both red and green unicorns can be knocked down a level. However, the blue unicorns are the meanest, and a lone unicorn will double into two blue unicorns if it gets stuck in ahole or cannot find you. This can work to your advantage if you have reachedthe door "prize" and let a lone unicorn get stuck in a hole. When it doubles and turns blue, they will immediately come up to you at the top of the castle so you can grab the prize and knock two of the letters out really quickly.

"Castle" is the best arcade translation of all the ColecoVision games. It also proves that Coleco's version of Mr. Do! could have been better, looking like a rush job in comparison. However, both Mr. Do! games are worth getting because they have a lot of replayability in them. - 24

Most boards have sections with skulls such that youcan kick a ladder away, leaving only one path for the unicorns to approach from. To take maximum advantage of these setups, do the following:
1) Knock out the frontmost skull (on the side enemies will approach from).
2) Hammer the frontmost cherry.
3) As red unicorns approach, simply knock them through the hole. There's no need to waste the skull traps on them, since they are easy to deal with.
4) When a lone green unicorn lands in the hole, knock it through. It will turn purple, but don't worry! Back up to the next cherry, and hammer it as the newly formed purple unicorn dashes forward, crushing it.
5) Back up and repeat the process until there are no cherrys left, several green unicorns approach at once, or one or more purple unicorns storm into the trap. As soon as there are purples approaching, continue retreating and hammer free any remaining cherries, then hit the final skull to kill all squirming purples as well as any unicorns unfortunate enough to be standing below the platform.

With good timing, it is possible to hammer a unicorn that is rising out of a hole just as the new block forms, and kill it (or knock it back into the hole if it is a purple one). This is helpful when you are cornered in a tight spot.

To maximize the number of letters you catch on any given stage, try the following strategy:
1) Hammer two of the keys, leaving the key closest to the top of the screen.
2) Hammer as many holes as you can while luring theunicorns downwards, until you have a free path from the third key to the magic door at the top of the screen. Avoid killing the unicorns unless necessary.
3) Hit the final key, and immediately dash to the top of the screen, turning the unicorns into letters. The longer you wait after grabbing the third key before touching the magic door, the shorter the period of time that the unicorns will remain as letters. Conversely, if youdo it quickly, the unicorns will remain letters for a very long time!
4) The letters will flee towards the bottom of the screen. Chase them, dropping down the holes you already made whenever possible (this is quicker than climbing down ladders, and better yet you can land on top of letters and squish them).

With this method (even on the difficult levels later in the game), you can easily grab 3 or more letters per screen. It's evenpossible to get a full "EXTRA" all on one stage! - 45

Mr. Do!'s Castle contains a bug in the programming which provides infinite lives when triggered. Norman Sippel describes how he once triggered it:
"During scene 3, there was one last red unicorn to destroy. I grabbed the prize at the top of the castle right after I hit the third key block, and went to the second floor. I was going to hit the letter enemy with a block but instead fell through the hole, squashing him."
"When he squashed, it was on level one. The letter "X" completed my "E-X-T-R-A", and the game paused with music. When it came back, the guy was resquashed--this time he came out of the prize door on level seven and fell down into level six. I thought "no sweat" because I still had two lives left."
"During the next level, I died twice. I thought "Game Over" but instead the game continued on. After dying again, I realized I triggered off the infinite lives bug."
"The game messes up at level 32 in numbering levels. It goes like this:
31 -> 3: -> 3; -> 42... (normal counting)... 46 -> 42... (normal)... 53
"I was on level 53 when I quit. I was stuck on it because I killed off the last unicorn, but the game messed up when I hit it over the head with a block. Instead of going to the next board, the monster and block became a blotch on the screen (covering up a window) and I was free to terrorize at will. By accident, I trapped myself out of the lastcherry to complete the board." - 24

Mr. Turtle
From the catalog: - 24
Mr. Turtle (TM)
Action Game Cartridge
#2432
Mr. Turtle (TM) comes to life on the screen, but needs your help on his treasure hunt. His goal is to collect the prizes that are located on both land and under water. But -- each prise is guarded by ananimal, some firece, some funny. Mr. Turtle (TM) must outwit the creatures to obtain each treasure and score points.
Coleco had produced Mr.Turtle pool toys before the idea of this game, the idea for the game probably came from this. - TC

Mouse TrapMouse Trap
Since there's no pause feature in this game, you can trap yourself in one of the rooms if you need a break. You can also trap the cats in rooms to make it easier for you to do the maze. - JC

The keypad gets in the way of the gameplay. The 2600 version is more fun because it has one button, but Coleco could have chosen to make the doors open using one button and eating the biscuit being the other button. Based upon the arcade game by Exidy. - 24

Also if you are in a big hurry to get a door open and you press the wrong number on the keypad, its lights out for you :) - TC

Nice Ideas
At one time a division of Mattel Electronics located in Nice, France. Due to French laws, Mattel was not allowed to shut downtheir Nice office on January 20, 1984 with the rest of Mattel Electronics - instead, they were required to find a buyer for the division. The programmers stayed on the Mattel payroll working on their games until finallythe division found investors that enabled them to buy the operation themselves, renaming it Nice Ideas. They sold two of their completed Intellivision games to INTV Corp. and three of their completed ColecoVision games (Bump 'n' Jump, BurgerTime and Illusions) to Coleco. - 36

Nuvatec, Inc.
Nuvatec, Inc., located in Downers Grove, IL, programmed several games for the ColecoVision under contract including Turbo, Cosmic Avenger, Gorf, Slither, Time Pilot, Looping, 2010: The Graphic Action Game, and Frontline. - 65

Omega RaceOmega Race
If you use Roller Controller for the two play game,you will make both ships mirror the other's actions. One RC controls both ships! Based upon the arcade game by Bally/Midway. - 24

In a one play game, rotate your ship so that it points straight up or down, and thrust until you bump into one of the walls. You will then keep bouncing between the top and bottom, and can rotateyour ship toward the right hand side of the screen, and fire away. Workswell until you get to higher levels. - 54

Parker Brothers
There are two boxes used by Parker Bros. One is thetypical "boxed" game with two box parts that open up to reveal the game and instructions. The other is a clone of the standard Coleco box with Parker Bros. written on it instead. - 24

Parker Bros. used the same serial numbers for theirgames around the world with one exception--for foreign release, a "A" was added to the serial number of the game. - 24

Pac-Man
Has the same aspect ratio as the 2600 (and 5200 - JH) version; plays really well, and maintains all the bonuses and intermissions. The title screen includes a neat dissolve-in of "Pac Man". Atari didnot release the cartridge because of their advertising campaign at the time, which boasted "you will only be able to play Pac-Man on the Atari!". - 53

The _best_ home version of Pac-Man I've ever played. Scores over the competition on the basis of:
2600 - absolutely everything (no big surprise)
5200 - better detail (the ghosts have eyes) and better control
NES - better control (which outweighs the aspect ratio and attract screen advantages of the NES version in my opinion)
Seems to be 100% complete and ready for release. - JH

Pepper II
Graphics are very similar to those of the unreleased Side Trak. Based upon the arcade game by Exidy. - 24

Nice game though can easily be rolled over. - TC

Pitfall!
You can walk through some walls by jumping at them.- JC

PizzaTime
The _real_ sequel to BurgerTime, started 1/3/84. Since the Nice group continued working after 1/20/84, it's possible thata playable version of this game was developed. - 36

PopeyePopeye
Very good port, but the characters needed a bit more detail (which I'm sure the ColecoVision could have handled). On the other hand, this is the only port I know of which has the Sea Hag and SweetPea. Based upon the arcade game by Nintendo. - 24

Porky's
The cartridge shell looks like a bare Epyx/Spinnaker style case, with a plain white rectangular hand written label. Inside,there is a standard board with 2 EPROMs.

The start up screen is all blue, with a 1983 "Fox Electronics" copyright notice, and skill options at the bottom of the screen. According to a guy who has the Porky's programmer for an instructor, he never made a 2600 port, so that was done after he had left.

The game play is similar to the 2600, only with better graphics and sounds (yes, the female showering looks more female). The first Screen is the Frogger-like sequence in the same order, just with improved graphics. The second screen is the "pole-valut-over-the-lake" screen. You still have to build the ladder wrung by wrung; and Porky is himself is walking around the ledges beneath the ladders. Porky is particularly well-animated--with a black ten-gallon hat, white T-shirt, blue jeans, and a cigarette in his mouth.

The third screen, the "girls shower room" had the girl scrubbing up in the shower, she was slightly more rounded and womanlikethan the 2600 version; the silhouette was dark gray, and the shower curtain light gray.

When Mrs. Ballbricker comes after you, she is also well-done; with gray hair, a green shirt, and blue pants. She also clearly has tweezers she is pinching in the air. Only two different objects canbe retreived from the shower room to stop the objects in the Frogger-likescreen: the detonator, and either a coil of rope or a fork or a wrench. These objects alternate for each row of the first screen; the first object stopped the odd rows, the second the even rows.

In the last screen, "The girders beneath Porky's", still had Porky walking around, making a nusciance out of himself, and it still had those annoying arrows supposedly to point you in the right direction to climb.

The only problem with the game is that after getting past the locker room screen to the screen underneath Porky's--you cannotgo anyplace. - 01, 43

Q*Bert
Just like the arcade game by Gottlieb. - 24

Playing this game after a long game of Q*Bert's Qubes can be rather frustrating because of the difference in gameplay and the speed of gameplay. - TC

Q BertQ*Bert's Qubes
Very fun puzzle game. As Q*Bert moves, he turns six-sided cubes around.
To win a level, you need to match up tic-tac-toes of cubes. The "Coily"-like mouse will chase you around the diamond playfield, but will fall of if he lands on a turning cube. Sam and Slick are a real pain on the higher levels. The pause button is "0". Based upon the arcade game by Mylstar.

Level One -- Two sides orange, four sides blue Win 1 tic-tac-toe
Level Two -- Three sides orange, three sides blue (1st two screens) Six colors (white, red, blue, orange, yellow, green) (3rd and 4th screens) Win 1 tic-tac-toe
Level Three -- Six colors and win 2 tic-tac-toes
Level Four -- Six colors and win 3 tic-tac-toes
Level Five -- Six colors, win 1 tic-tac-toe, but you can undo completed cubes

The label on the cart is the logo of Q*Bert's Qubeswith no picture of Q*Bert or the playfield. Unlike the first Q*Bert, the label is designed to be read while inserted into the ColecoVision on the correct side. (Q*Bert's Qubes &Mr. Do!'s Castle are the only two Parker Brothers releases with this style of label design. - JH) - 24

If you'd like to try the arcade version, there was one up and running at HersheyPark (Hershey, PA) as of 1994. The ColecoVision version is a wonderful port. - JH

To skip to level 2 of gameplay, press the '#' key on the keypad at the level select screen. -TC

To make lines go down the screen on the beginning of any level when the cubes flash, (use super action controller) press down all 4 buttons on the controller. The cubes also dissapear and the gameplay is slowed down. -TC

Quest for Quintana Roo

Skiing (Telegames)
Telegames Skiing does not have the same graphics asthe Coleco Skiing which was in the introductory catalog. Whereas Coleco's catalog showed a 1st-person perspective, Telegames' Skiing is more like Activision Skiing for the Atari 2600. - 08

Slither
Based upon the arcade game by Century II. - 24

Smurf Play and Learn
From the catalog: - 24
Smurf Play and Learn Cartridge by Peyo (Smurf (TM) Peyo (C) 1982)
Play & Learn Cartridge
#2444
This educational cartridge with Smurf (TM) characters bring basic learning concepts to the screen and encourages children to solve the problems and situations. Their zany antics make learning fun!

SmurfSmurf Rescue in Gargamel's Castle
At the last screen with the skull and Smurfette, leave the room and Smurfette will drop her dress. - JC

If you come up to a hard screen, go back to the screen you just came through, and then return - the screen will change shape each time, so you can do it until an easier one appears. - JC

On game 4, move back and forth between screens 1 & 2 for about a minute, and you'll receive 919,500 points. - JC

The original cartridge was created not by Peyo (theoriginator of the Smurfs), but by Belokapi, a French company. - 61

Space FurySpace Fury
Save the best dock for last, since you'll be stuck with it for the rest of the game. - JC

If you wanted to get a feel for some of the docks during the game, pick a dock to use and then when you come back to the bonus docking screen, let the time run out and you can use the dock you stillhave. BTW, you can change docks next time you come to that screen. - TC

Space Panic
The stupidest game I have ever played, IMHO. Why would you want to dig holes, let a monster fall in, and they fall down a level and die? Stupid! Based upon the arcade game by Universal. - 24

Spectar
From the catalog: - 24
Spectar (TM) by Exidy (Original game copyright is (C) 1980)
Arcade Game Cartridge
#2421
You must direct an armoured car through a tangled maze - negotiating sharp turns at high speeds. But as you traverse theterrain, a variety of tank-like vehicles emerge to attack and destroy your car.

Spy Hunter
At the fork in the road, the left path give's you the oil supply truck, and the right gives you the missiles. You can use the supply truck as a weapon by not entering it and moving it back and forth so it collides with your enemies. When in the boat, it's safer to stick to the right; you don't get attacked as much and that's the side the exit is on. - JC

Squish'em featuring Sam
If you like 20th Century Fox's 2600 game "Fast Eddie," you will like Squish'em. It has similar gameplay plus has, IMHO, the first "sound- byte" included in it. Sam actually talks to you (i.e., "Ouch!" "Wow!"). It's worth theprice of admission! Also of note is the fact the cart has a hanger built into it. - 24

The following dedication is coded into the ROM for the cart:
This space dedicated to all those hackers who program in 8K but are given 16K and to all accountants who want 15K promos - 8

Star Wars: The Arcade Game
Explosion of death star not as impressive as other versions - 01

SubrocSubroc
Sega could not decide whether to make a submarine or an airplane game. So they compromised. Based upon the arcade game by Sega. - 24

This game is highly underrated and if you like thisgame, try using the Super Action controller to play. It gives an arcadefeel and can get you feeling in the zone easily. -TC

Super Action Football (CBS)
This is equivalent to Coleco's Super Action Soccer.- JH

Super Action Football (Coleco)
My copy of the instructions give the part number as2422 - the intended number (per the ColecoVision catalog) for Head to Head Football. - JH

Super Cobra
"Missing levels" - 01

Sydney Development
While Sydney only released one game on their own (Evolution), they were a major player in the ColecoVision arena. Many, many games were created or translated for ColecoVision by Sydney. Among these:
River Raid
Keystone Kapers
B.C.'s Quest for Tires
B.C.'s Quest for Tires II: Grog's Revenge
Wiz Math
The Dam Busters
The company survived past the video game market crash by switching over to the Commodore 64 and IBM PC. - 17

Tac-Scan
The first two stages of Tac-Scan were completed at Nuvatec, Inc., by Jim Wolf and Joe Clark before Coleco instructed that all work on it be stopped. - 65

Tarzan
If you are low on energy, keep punching the hunter at the campsite until you are at full strength. - JC

Designed by Lawrance Schick - 51

Time PilotTime Pilot
"Handles like its constipated" - 01

Different feel using the ColecoVision controller than the arcade game, which was put out by Konami. - 24

Unnamed Shoot-em-up Space Game
Jim Wolf programmed an original shoot-em-up space game which never got released. It consisted of a top-down view of a spacefighter flying through fields of asteroids looking for enemy fighters to shoot down.
Additional obstacles included an occasional meteor tumbling down from the top of the screen at high speed, and lethal electric "fences" which suddenly appeared between two enemy space stations masquerading as two meteors lazily floating through space. - 65

Colecovision ExperienceTips from ColecoVision Experience magazine:
As each round opens, your ship approaches the firstasteroid, which is topped by a high wall. To avoid crashing into the wall, use your laser cannon to confirm your flight path. Since the lasercannon fires straight ahead, the position where your shots detonate indicates the path of your ship. If your opening shots strike the wall, move until they pass through the center area of the wall's opening. This will ensure that you enter the asteroid safely.

As you fly along the surface of the asteroid, stay low enough (about the first mark on the altimeter scale at left) to hit the turrets and tanks on the asteroid surface. Keep to the left as much as possible, destroying enemy turrets first, and fuel tanks after you've eliminated the turrets that defend them. The turrets fire both forward and sideways, and theirmissiles move rapidly, so you'll almost certainly be hit if you get close to a turret without destroying it. Fire at the turrets from a distance,then weave back to the right to hit fuel tanks. Remember to keep an eye out for the vertically rising missiles that come out of the ground silos -and don't forget the equally deadly missiles launched from the turrets. Don't climb unless necessary to avoid a missile or a wall - even two seconds at high altitude will bring a fast, hard-to-avoid homing missile down on you.

ZaxxonAs you leave the first asteroid to enter deep space, move toward the center of the screen to give yourself maximum maneuverability. Then wait for the first of the enemy fighters. You'll find that they're very hard to hit until they approach and prepare to launch their missiles.The best technique for survival in deep space is 1. Wait until crosshairs appear in front of your ship. 2. Fire instantly. 3. Dive or climb immediately. Don't fire and remain still - even if you hit the enemy fighter its missile will still destroy you.

Practice this wait-fire-move sequence until you canconfidently destroy the enemy fighters. By the way, it can't hurt to start firing at enemy fighters as soon as they appear on the edge of the screen. Unfortunately, long distance hits are hard to come by.

The action will abruptly slow as you approach the mighty ZAXXON.
Move your ship to the right to draw ZAXXON over toward that side of the asteroid so you can fire at it. Then rise to an altitude of about 2 1/2 marks on the screen altimeter, and begin firing as rapidly as possible. When ZAXXON launches a homing missile, try to hit it several times to neutralize it (you'll see it change color), then continue to fire at ZAXXON itself. Remember, only multiple hits at the right height can destroy ZAXXON - and earn you points. If you can't score these hits and destroy the homing missile, your fire will at least drive ZAXXON back and you can begin another round of attack. - 35
