"The Cosmic Chasm space station has been seized by a hostile enemy force. Your mission: maneuver your ship through the tunnels and chasms of the station to the central power core. Destroy the core and escape, retracing your path to the point of entry before the chain-reaction explosions destroy the entire station. Success in this mission will lead you to twenty-three new and greater challenges."

Licensing agreements between Cinematronics and GCE brought the original Vectrex title Cosmic Chasm to the arcade, making it the first console game to become a coin-op, instead of the usual other way around.

Despite the addition of colour and permanent display of the maze, the gameplay and amusement are not the same.
