Release date: 1991

In 1991 the Atari 2600 was still on sale, and it sold 200,000 units in Europe that year. This page holds one game, Save Mary!, a block-stacking puzzle by Tod Frye in which you build a way out of a flooding canyon for a stranded girl. It was made at Nolan Bushnell’s company Axlon and finished in 1989, but Atari closed its 2600 business before it could ship, so it survives only as a prototype.
