Spy vs Spy


Remember the comic strip Spy vs Spy from Mad magazine?
Back in 1984 it got a video-game,
It's great fun to play against a friend, and it was most likely the first split-screen game ever made.

The game takes place in an embassy and the object of the game is to find a number of items, and then exit to the airport. The one who does this first wins the game.
To be able to carry more than one of those items, you need a briefcase.
All items are randomly hidden around the embassy.
The players also have a variety of traps that can be rigged in the rooms. Also hidden around the embassy are tools that can be used to counter the other players traps.



You can get a copy of the Atari/C64 version for around €13.
A used copy of the NES version goes for about €7, but if you are lucky enough to get one still in its original packaging and plasticized, expect to pay closer to €100.
