About this game

I.Q. 180 is a board game for the Atari 2600, developed and published by Suntek in 1982.

Gameplay

Players first study two screens containing 25 letters and five symbols arranged in different numbered positions. After a tune ends, the characters become squares and a timer counts down from 1000 to 0. Move the cursor and press fire to reveal pairs, matching identical letters or symbols to score points.

Correct matches remain visible, while incorrect pairs return to squares. The game ends when all 30 characters are matched or the timer reaches zero.
