Atari 2600 Game
Produced by:Imagic
Model Number:03208
Year of Release:1982
Rarity:5 Rare

Similar in gameplay to Gradius, Laser Gates had many features not commonly associated with Atari Games. It is a subterranean side scrolling shooter. Although most of the gameplay involved dodging obstacles, not shooting enemies. Fully half of the screen was taken up by gauges, (which kept track of your score, fuel, shields, etc). This game was also released under the name of Laser Volley by Zellers, who tried to pretend that it was a helicopter game.

Dan Oliver was the game designer on this title.

This game is valued at around $8 USD. Games with boxes and manuals are worth more.
