Centipede

Centipede, the classic arcade hit by Atari, is now available on Intellivision

Bringing fast-paced action and intense bug-blasting gameplay to your home. Take control of your trusty Bug Blaster and defend your enchanted mushroom patch from an onslaught of creeping, jumping, and multiplying insects. With a swarm of enemies—including centipedes, jumping spiders, poisonous scorpions, and frenzied fleas—you’ll need fast reflexes and precise aim to survive.

The gameplay in Centipede revolves around shooting down waves of insects before they overrun the mushroom patch. The centipede slithers down the screen, splitting into multiple segments when hit, each segment growing a new head. As you blast away these segments, you’ll need to be strategic, preventing them from reaching the bottom of the screen while also dealing with other dangerous bugs.

Jumping spiders randomly bounce across the screen, posing a threat as they destroy your mushrooms and get in the way of your shots. Poisonous scorpions crawl across the screen, turning mushrooms into toxic obstacles that force the centipede to move unpredictably, making it harder to hit. Frenzied fleas dive straight down toward you, creating even more mushrooms and quickly cluttering the battlefield.

To survive, you must blast these relentless bugs while managing the growing maze of mushrooms. Listen for the distinct sounds of each insect as they approach, and stay on the lookout for the growing centipede heads—if any reach the bottom of the screen, you’ll lose a life.
