The Mad Overlord Trebor was once only power-mad, but went off the deep end after he acquired a magical amulet of immense power, only to have it stolen from him by his nemesis, the evil archmage Werdna. Werdna, not quite sure how to use the amulet properly, accidentally causes an earthquake which creates a ten-level dungeon beneath Trebor's castle. To avoid looking silly, Werdna declares the dungeon to be the new lair for him and his monster hordes. Trebor, not to be outdone, declares the labyrinth his new Proving Grounds where adventurers must prove themselves for membership in his elite honor guard, and incidentally retrieve his amulet in the process.

Based on the board game, the object is to guess either a word or phrase based on a drawing. Each team starts on the same square on the board and the first team attempts to draw a picture based on a clue. If his team correctly guesses the clue, then this team gets to roll the dice and advance along the board. If the team fails to guess correctly, then the other team gets a chance to draw and guess. The game plays much in this way until a team reaches the final square on the board and successfully guesses the clue to win the game.

You are Mad Max. You drive your Interceptor through the post-apocalyptic wastelands and fight bandits. The game introduction is the speech from the beginning of the movie Mad Max 2 (a.k.a The Road Warrior), telling you how the world ended and how The Road Warrior, lost everything by "the roar of an engine" and how he in the wastelands "learned to live again". The game is played in a top-down view where you move your car to attack enemy cars and pick up fuel tanks (if you run out of fuel the game is over).

The lack of knowledge about FFs before 7 sort of damages this episode alot.
I am actually one of the people that likes Star Force. I think it's pure SHMUP experience. A fast-paced test of skill with no frills to rely on as a crutch. When only have a short time to game, which is often as a busy adult, I find myself playing Star Force often trying to beat my high score. It actually does feel like an old school arcade experience at home. I do think its reputation suffers a bit because it was a 1985 release in Japan but definitely seemed simplistic in comparison when it got a 1987 US release. we'll see this phenomenon more with games like Mag Max, Hydlide, Xevious. Early famicom releases that just didn't hold up to when they were released later in the US. Also you all speculated on Super Star Force for Famicom. It a neat SHMUP with overhead dungeon sections and a time travel mechanic. Kind of like Guardian Legend but more primitive. it's a cheap famicom cartridge on EBay and worth checking out.
Great job as usual guys!
