Satan's Hollow - classic Time Waster

Satan's Hollow - classic midway arcade timewasterThis classic 1981 shooter from Midway is the perfect way to spend down time between trick or treaters this Halloween (especially if you keep the candy within arms reach).

The addicting game play is pretty standard 80s arcade action. Even if you have never played Satan's Hollow before, the controls should be familiar if you've been around any of the host of similar shooters from the Reagan years. You basically move your tank around and shoot stuff: bats, fire breathing devil heads, pitchfork throwing devils, acid throwing devils, etc. You can upgrade your cannon by completing a bonus round and there is a special shield feature which gives you quick protection if the bad guys get too close. Watch out that the bats don't steal your extra life though.

Oh, and if all that wasn't enough, amongst all this carnage you'll have to steadily work on building a bridge across the lake of fire to get to each bonus round. It is down right biblical.
