I Want My Mommy, published by Zimag in 1983 for the Atari 2600, is the North American edition of Open Sesame, a game by Taiwan's Bit Corporation, and puts the player in charge of Teddy, a bear cub who has to climb a six-floor structure using teleport beams — since he can't jump — while dodging monsters patrolling each level. The first stretch is about finding an apple; the second, reuniting with his mom at the top. The box carried the "KidStuff" seal, meant to mark content suitable for kids under nine, and its cover art stuck in collective memory to the point that IGN ranked it among the ten best box art pieces in video game history.
