Publisher: Gem International Corporation
Gem International Corporation was a Taiwanese company that made Atari 2600 games. In Europe they were sold under Home Vision, a Belgian brand used by the company VDI, mostly as PAL cartridges dated 1983. Like many European releases of the time, the games often appeared under several names from different companies, and some were versions of games first published elsewhere: Wall Break is Bomb’s Wall-Defender, and Sky Alien is Bomb’s Assault. Little is documented about some of them, and programmer credits are rare.

Go Go Home Monster: a maze game about an alien collecting parts to fly home.
I.Q. 180: a memory game with a grid of letters and symbols.
