Wizard Video Games licensed the classic 1978 slasher to build a game where you have to look after children inside a house while an invisible killer — the presence of Michael Myers, suggested more than shown — stalks the hallways, with blood stains appearing on screen if you don't reach them in time to protect them. For its time, it was one of the most explicit cartridges in the 2600's catalog, which sparked some controversy in a market not yet used to graphic violence in a console game.
Today it's remembered as a cult rarity, cited more for its history and its scarcity on the resale market than for actually being a particularly well-crafted horror experience.
