Tutankham (Alt)

Colecovision 1983 Parker Brothers
Tutankham is a 1982 arcade game developed by Konami and released by Stern in the US. This game is also known as Horror Maze on Konami Classics Series: Arcade Hits for the Nintendo DS. The game was originally titled Tutankhamen, but the publisher discovered the full name could not fit on the arcade cabinet, so the title was shortened.

The player plays an explorer grave robbing Tutankhamun's tomb. The player is chased by creatures such as asps, vultures, parrots, bats, dragons and curses that kill the player on contact. The player may move in four directions, but can only fire in two directions, left and right, making the player helpless in vertical shafts. The player is also endowed with a single flash bomb per life and level to destroy all the enemies on a screen. The player must grab keys to open large doors to advance in a level, and may optionally grab treasures for bonus points. Each level features a timer; when it reaches zero, it removes the explorer's ability to fire. It also measures the bonus for escaping each level.

History

Tutankham was one of six games chosen to appear in the famous LIFE magazine photo-session conducted at Twin Galaxies in Ottumwa, Iowa, on November 7, 1982. The photo, which also included Donkey Kong, Tempest, Centipede, Defender and Ms. Pac-Man, featured the top video game superstars of the 1982-era, gathered for a group photograph. The Tutankham champion in the photo was Mark Robichek, of Mountain View, California. The resulting photo is considered one of the most famous in video game history and was the subject of a 2007 Sundance documentary titled Chasing Ghosts: Beyond the Arcade. Archival footage from this photograph session also appeared in another documentary film titled The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters, which was released at the 2007 Slamdance Film Festival.
