An arcade-style carrot defense game for Atari 2600
The briefing
In Gopher, the gopher tunnels left and right and toward the surface to steal the farmer’s three carrots. The farmer must hit the gopher to send it underground or fill in tunnels to block its path.
If the gopher takes a carrot, a pelican may drop a seed. Catching the seed lets the farmer plant a replacement in the missing carrot’s location. The gopher moves faster as the game continues, and play ends when all three carrots are removed.
Two skill levels and one- or two-player support provide four game variations.
