Publisher: Bomb

Bomb was a small label that sold Atari 2600 cartridges in 1983, with releases in the UK, Germany and North America. Several of its games are credited to the Asian developer Onbase Co., and the same titles were often sold by other companies under different names. Original Bomb cartridges are very rare today. The British magazine TV Gamer reviewed several of them and rated Assault the highest.

Assault: a fixed-screen shooter against a mother ship, with the option of firing sideways as well as up.
Z-Tack: you attack enemy bases hidden in a city, a reversal of Imagic’s Atlantis.
Wall-Defender: guard a fortress of several walls and run to the next ring before the outer one falls.
Great Escape: shoot meteorites and aliens in space that scrolls in four directions. A PAL version is here too.
