Money Wars

Money Wars is a video game in the action genre developed by HAL Laboratory, Inc. and published by Commodore Japan Limited originally released in 1982. It is currently playable on Commodore 64, VIC-20.

In Money Wars the player takes the role of a thief who has to retrieve and deliver bags of money without getting shot. The game is viewed from a side perspective. The player starts on the left side and has to move across the screen to the money bag on the right side and then move back to his starting position. From the top deadly arrows are fired at him, which he must dodge or he will lose a life. To help him, he has three brick barricades behind which he can hide. However, he cannot hide for too long, as the barricades take damage from the arrows and after a while they disappear. The player can use two special functions. One that increases speed and one that creates a force field that destroys the arrows. These functions cost energy and the player receives bonus points depending on how much energy he has left. When a money bag has been delivered, another one appears and the game continues until the player has lost all three lives. For every fifth bag of money delivered the player advances to a new level.
