Seawolf is based on the 1976 Midway arcade hit [Sea Wolf](/software/sea-wolf/).
|
|
|
|
"As submarine commander you are in charge of sinking and destroying all enemy ships... destroyers, freighters and P.T. boats... an explosive Bally/Midway arcade classic. Fast action fun!!"

This version is a bit different from the original one as it's a 2 player only game. Each player control a submarine (red or yellow) at the bottom of the screen (with paddles). Each submarine can shoot 4 torpedoes in a row, and then wait 3 seconds to reload.
|
|
|
|
6 years after the original version, the game has also turned in colour, hopefully. Apart from that, verything is here: floating mines, different boat types and limited time.

Despite the VIC-20 limitations, Seawolf is a pretty fun 2 player game. Good efforts has been made to the sound which tries to match the samples of the Arcade hit.
