Navarone (ナバロン Nabaron) is a fixed shooter arcade game, that was released by Namco in 1980. It is the first of three monochromatic arcade games which were developed by the company during the early part of that year; the other two are Kaitei Takara Sagashi (originally developed by K. K. Tokki) and SOS.
Gameplay
The player controls a boat which must move around the edge of an island trying to shoot the pellets, mines and central skull for points while avoiding the bullets fired at it by the indestructible gun turrets. If it should get hit by one, it will lose a life, but once it has cleared the island, the remaining time will be added to its score (in 100-point increments), and it will proceed to the next round.
