Publisher: Quelle

Quelle was a German mail-order company that sold many Atari 2600 cartridges through its catalogue, usually games from other companies with German titles. The site lists seven games under the Quelle name:

Phantom-Panzer: Bit Corporation’s Phantom Tank, in which enemy tanks fade in and out of view.
Eddy Langfinger, der Museumsdieb: the German release of A Mysterious Thief, a burglary against the clock.
Raumpatrouille: a space shooter also sold as UFO Patrol and X’Mission.
Motocross: a top-down motorbike race in which you overtake riders and collect fuel.
Weltraumtunnel: the German title for a tunnel shooter; this page runs Bit Corporation’s Space Tunnel.
Space Tunnel: the same Bit Corporation game under its English name.

The list also includes Bermuda, a renamed River Raid. Quelle sold other rebadged games too, such as Der hungrige Panda and Jagd auf Diamanten-Frisco. Pick a cartridge below and play it in your browser.
