A 1986 action shooter based on the Gobots cartoon series
The briefing
Challenge of the Gobots is an action arcade shooter based on the television cartoon series of the same name. As Leader-1, the player travels to the planet Moebius to stop the evil Dr. Braxis and destroy his enemy bases.
Leader-1 transforms into a futuristic spaceship. Enemy ships are destroyed with the laser, while ground vehicles require rocks collected by landing and digging. Special bombs, modeled after Leader-1's sidekick Scooter, are scattered across the planet and are needed to destroy the bases.
After completing the mission, the game loops at a higher difficulty. Before starting, players can also adjust factors such as gravity and speed. The game includes an electronic novel containing the prologue and an audio cassette with the soundtrack.
