Published by 20th Century Fox Games for the Atari 2600 under a title different from the film that clearly inspired it, No Escape! has the player navigating a decaying urban maze while dodging hostile enemies, clearly in tune with the premise of a New York turned into an open-air prison. Licensing conflicts of the era explain why it could never use the real name of the film it originated from. A historical curiosity about the legal limits of movie merchandising in the industry's early years.
