Squirrel ~ O Esquilo is the alternate-name circulation of Snail Against Squirrel, the 1983 Bit Corporation game for Atari 2600 where a squirrel must carry nuts one at a time to its nest while dodging deadly snails along the way. The added "O Esquilo" —"The squirrel" in Portuguese— marks an edition meant to circulate in Portuguese-speaking markets, following the era's common practice of retitling the same cartridge depending on the sales territory. It's one more example of how the Atari 2600's unlicensed catalog kept multiplying and renaming itself as it crossed borders.
