Publisher: Panda

Panda was a North American label that sold other companies’ Atari 2600 games around 1983, sometimes just under a new name and sometimes with redrawn graphics and a new story. Seven of its cartridges are on the site:

Harbor Escape: Activision’s River Raid with the jet turned into a submarine and the fuel into air tanks.
Tank Brigade: Bit Corporation’s Phantom Tank with new graphics.
Space Canyon: Space Cavern from Games by Apollo, with a new story about a tank trapped in a canyon.
Stunt Man: Sancho’s Nightmare, with a stuntman climbing ropes to a helicopter instead of a dreaming child.
Exocet: a UFO shooter over cannon towers and tunnels, also sold by Sancho.
Dice Puzzle (USA): a quiet logic game in which you turn sixteen dice into sixes.
