Game Info

Released by:
Parker Brothers, 1983
Original arcade game by:
Gottlieb, 1982
TwinGalaxies High Score:
198,695 (Skill 1) by Alan W Hewston

Q*bert springs to life with all the adventure of the popular arcade game!
Colorful graphics and arcade-like sounds accompany the game's lively action.
Hop Q*bert up and down the steps of a "three-dimensional" pyramid, changing each
step's color as he lands. Complete the entire pyramid, and Q*bert moves to a more
challenging pyramid.

But look out! The crafty arcade creatures are here, too, and they're after Q*bert.
Hop out of danger fast-or soar to safety on a Flying Disc. But watch where you move
Q*bert. One hop off the pyramid, and he'll be lost in space!

Hey I was just playing this a few minutes ago... I only had a score of about 5,000... now that I know it's in the competition, well I'll just have to play some more and shoot for the 20,000. :)

May I submit a score? I hold the record in skill #3 on twin galaxies 1,256,690 :)

Seriously you chose a great game for the HSC. This Parker Brothers release is the best home console version in my opinion, and defiantly a must have for the ColecoVision Collector.

Good Luck everyone... I am not going to post a score.

Nice conversion, although the collision detection can be a bit wonky at times..
