About this game

Armored Encounter / Sub Chase combines two competitive action games for the Magnavox Odyssey 2 and Odyssey 2 / Videopac G7000.

Armored Encounter!

In this tank battle, two players attempt to score the most hits within a three-minute time limit. Each tank carries 20 rounds of ammunition, with the final three rounds changing color to warn that supplies are running low. The game includes 12 variations selected with the alphanumeric keys.

Sub Chase!

One player controls a Hawk hunter-killer jet scrolling left, while the other controls a Shark missile-launching submarine scrolling right. Neutral ships cross the water’s surface, adding a scoring risk: hitting the opponent earns one point, while hitting a neutral vessel costs one point. Three variations are selected with the numeric keys.

The game was released in Europe for the Philips Videopac as Air-Sea War / Battle.
