Hey, stop hijacking my thread, at least until someone puts me out of my misery for my golf game ;D
I have been looking this afternoon on Klov, there are 3 possibilities with no screenshots - does anyone have screenshots of these or remember what they were like?
Leaderboard Golf
Golfing Greats
Capcom Golf
They all came out about the right time.

My mystery game was in a local convenience store at about the same time as Missile Command. . . so figure about 1981 most likely, maybe 1982 at a stretch.
The game featured a background setting of orange-brown dirt and boulders. Large numbers of tarantula-like spiders crawled down the screen toward the player, who had to fight them off in some manner that I don't really remember.
It was a highly popular game with the local kids.
I've searched and searched, and I've almost begun to doubt my own memory -- wondering if I've mis-remembered the game so badly that I wouldn't even recognize it if I saw it. I've managed to pin down most of the other obscure games that I remember playing (including Blasto and Quasar), so this is really the last unknown for me.

Krull?
Zobeid:
I saw Krull in that video recently, where it was about the size of a postage stamp, and I thought at first that was it. The playfield looked similar, from a distance, if I squinted. Then I checked out the game and it was nothing like the one I remember.
